Now let’s get on to today’s question!

Do you notice a difference in pictures when having real bouquets but fake centerpieces?

There can be a difference, especially if you are using the same flower variety. You can select a different flower variety for your bouquet (if possible), so it won’t be a direct comparison.

Also, your bouquet pictures won’t necessarily be side-by-side with the centerpieces for the most part. So you can certainly get away with this!

Fresh flowers can get really pricey! You can certainly do fake centerpieces! This depends on whether you are doing them yourself because fake flowers can also add up and almost be 10-20% less than fresh flowers!

Here are a few suggestions when you are looking for fake or silk flowers!

use only muted colors like light pink or white
limit the number of varieties of your flowers (i.e., only stick to peonies or roses)
remove all greeneries! They are the telltale that something is fake! Remove them from the stem and keep the bloom only!
use colored vases (instead of clear!) to hide the stems

Also, you can do bud vases (individual roses and open them) for the centerpiece and add in more candles! This will help bring the cost down dramatically!
