What are some reasonably priced flowers?

We originally were set on having calla lillies, but things keep adding up and calla lillies are so expensive! What are some cheaper, but beautiful flowers that could be used for the Bridesmaids bouquets? I still want Calla lillies in my bouquet, so maybe something that can be mixed in with callas as well. Any ideas? The bridesmaids dresses are wine color. Thanks!

Dahlias. They are less expensive that calla lilies but they still look stunning. Dahlias come in a wide varieties of colors, including a beautiful burgundy-wine.
Reply:You're doing the right thing - get what you want because you're the bride and your bouquet will be all over in pictures. I got roses like I had wanted and the girls had Gerbera Daisies. They're inexpensive and come in MANY colors (and are GORGEOUS - they're my favorite flower now!). They probably won't mix welll with callas, but honestly, they're so pretty in a bunch by themselves. My girls carried 10 with a wire-beaded collar (but they would've been pretty with just an organza bow tied around the stems instead to cut back on the price).





Good luck!
Reply:I went to the farmers' market for the flowers for our son's wedding, but if that's inconvenient, go to a supermarket and make your own bouquets, bouteniers, etc. We got a book at a crafts store. It took five people about two hours. It was fun.
Reply:If you wants callas go with artifcial....the same look for half the price!

I've ordered mine thru there and they're very nice for the price.
