Making your own wedding flowers can be a very rewarding experience. Let`s look at the advantages of making your own flowers.

First of all, you will be getting exactly what you like since you will be choosing your own flowers, ribbons and accents.  
Second, you will be putting your love & positive energy in your bouquets. The flowers will live on in photos for years to come and will bring you good luck and blessings for a wonderful marriage.

If you share the experience by collaborating with your bridesmaids, friends and family you will be creating memories for years to come. 

Finally, you will save lots of money. Let`s examine the different types of wedding flowers and how much money you can save by making each item yourself.     Please keep in mind that these are rough estimates for this purpose.

Think it could have done with a little more inspiration - just numbers sometimes doesn't do it all!
