Are there similar flowers to the Hydrangeas?

I am looking to put these type of flowers on the middle of a tulle bow on each pew for my ceremony but hydrangeas are pretty expensive and I need lots of bows!

Are there similar flowers to the Hydrangeas?
Ask around. Hydrangeas should not be that expensive if they are in season--not to mention I bet someone in your family has a huge bush they would let you cut 12 or so blooms off of.


Rhododendron are also similar. Snowball bushes are kinda similar too.





But definitely consider silk. You could then keep them and reuse them, not to mention you'd be able to do them in advance and not have one more thing last minute that needs to get done.
Reply:do them in silk, it will be far less expensive. there arent a whole lot of flowers with the same look as hydrangeas.... sweat peas and verbidium are the only things i can think of off the top of my head, but the cost wont be too much different. if you prefer fresh flowers,your best bet is to pick a flower thats large, but there are several blooms on the stem (you usually pay per stem for flowers) for example, lilies... there are usually 5 or so blooms a stem, so theres five pews for about the same price as youd pay for one stem of hydrangea
Reply:Here's some websites with some flowers similar to hydrageas (some white, pink, etc)

I agree that silk flowers may be less expensive than real. Have you ocnsidered doing every other pew or every third to decrease amount of supplies needed? If using slik would be a great do it yourself project enlist the help of friends and family to complete.
