I've got flowers!!
Going shopping with your best friend for wedding flowers = priceless
Having an easy time picking out flowers = priceless
Ringing up supplies and flowers at register = $44 
Yeeaaah, I'm stoked. Hehe, only $44 for all 4 BM's boquets, my bouquet, and 4 bout. (I have no idea how to spell that.) Here's some pics.  On, and you'll have to forgive the lighting, it looks a bit yellow in some pics.
My bouqet
BM's
Groom's is white, GM are colored
Now all I have left flower wise is my toss boquet, and corsages for the moms and grandmothers (maybe).

ARE YOU SERIOUS, YOU MADE THOSE??? They look awesome. Is there a book y'all use when it comes to the tying? Cause it looks absolutely beautiful and I think I couldn't EVER do it!

I love those. You guys did a fab job on the ties.
Doesn't it feel great to have it done, and save so much $.
We went to the wholesale fresh flower mart 1st and priced things... that is when I decided that silks were ok afterall.

The wraps are really not hard to do at all. You just cross the ribbon like you're going to knot it, but instead twist it and wrap it back around the other way. Oh, and my braclet I was going to use is too big, and we could not figure out a way to make it work. So I think that got nixed, but it's all good.
Thank you all for the compliments!

Thought I'd add this one too. It's my toss boquet. (I hope it's cool that it doesn't match my flowers, but I'm guessing not too many will notice.  )

WOW they are soo pretty I love your tosser bouquet great job It is cool that it doesn't match the rest. Your flowers look pretty secure. I am always afraid that when I do my own one will fall out.

Those do look awesome.
About the toss bouquet -- everyone will be focused on catching it rather than if it matches!!!!
