Versatile, sustainable and everlasting: Silk flower wedding bouquets

Are you hammering out the details of your upcoming wedding? Then you’ve probably already realized that there are many of them — an overwhelming amount, even. From the centerpieces to the wedding cake, lots of choices must be made before you can get down that aisle. One of the most important, perhaps, is what type of flowers you’ll forever associate with your wedding day. And if you’re interested in an eco-friendly alternative to freshly cut flowers, consider silk flower bouquets. Faux blooms have recently increased in popularity not just because they’re a more sustainable choice, but also because they offer more flexibility and consistent quality.

Silk flower bouquets offer brides and grooms advantages that cannot be found in fresh flowers. Here we name a few:

SUSTAINABILITY:
With so many options out there for floral arrangements, you certainly have an endless array of choices for your big day. But when you choose silk flowers, you cut down on the waste of freshly cut blooms.
Because faux flowers don’t have a shelf life, they can be boxed up and placed on ships, which produce far fewer emissions than airplanes. Reusability is an important factor in living sustainably, and it’s pretty obvious that faux flowers are a clear winner in this category. The longer you use your artificial arrangements in lieu of live plants, the more positive impact they will have on your well-being and the reduction of your carbon footprint.

CONVENIENCE
With fake flowers, a bride has the liberty of having what she wants when she wants it and where she needs it. She will never incur a premium if her favorite flowers are out of season. When a bride gives her designer enough time, she can get her exact dream bouquet. Her flowers are shipped anywhere in the world, and she can travel back home with them stress-free, its perfect for destination weddings! You can just pop them in your suitcase and take them with you! At GAROFANO our packages are developed in a way that can be easily transported and folded comfortably for future use.

EVERLASTING
One of the main advantages to choosing a silk flower bouquet is that it can be kept as a reminder of the day, it’s a lovely keepsake. Something that can be passed on through generations and that becomes a symbol of love and heritage. It reflects the love and value of the moment.

CUSTOMIZATION
Your silk flower bouquet can be customized to be exactly how you want it. Pull inspiration from your wedding theme, venue, wedding songs, color palette, or wedding cake to bring your bouquet to life. Tell your wedding advisor what you are looking for, or if you are not sure, let the floral artist help you find a bridal style and create a bouquet that matches your wedding style. By choosing from a variety of shapes, colors, laces, jewelry and more, you will get a custom bouquet especially designed for you. At GAROFANO, you can add special family heritage symbols such as brooches, lockets and anything that is of value to you. The process of customizing your wedding bouquet becomes something beautiful given the opportunity of crafting it with our floral artist from zero.

ALLERGY FREE
If the groom or bride loves fresh flowers but is allergic to scents or pollens, they can still have a real looking bouquet without a possible allergic reaction.
