Benefits of Permanent Flowers
	Your wedding day will be one of the most eventful and memorable days of your life and planning it should be half the fun! Choosing silk or real flowers is one decision in that process. Here are some permanent floral "pros" to think about.

1. Silk floral arrangements will last forever. They can be displayed in your home as a lasting memory of your beautiful wedding day, used on your 50th wedding celebration, or given as a gift to attendants.

2. External factors like weather, time and body heat do not affect your flowers. Therefore, wilting is not an issue.

3. Your flowers can be perfected and previewed before the wedding day, causing minimal room for error and miscommunication.

4. Artificial flowers do not pose a problem for members of the wedding party with allergies.

5. Silk flowers do not stain material, such as dresses!

6. With proper planning, any flower you like can be used in your arrangements during any season, no limitations!

7. When comparing like designs, even the highest quality silk flowers tend to be more economical than real flowers due to additional expenses related to perishability.

8. Flower choices may be slim or expensive for the destination wedding bride. A simple and affordable solution to this problem is permanent floral!

9. No floral preservation needed. Weddings are expensive, and after the big day is over, who wants to worry about adding to the bill? With real flowers, the bride either throws away (literally) her investment or needs to invest more for a keepsake. Artificial flowers are a keepsake that's already paid for.

10. Go green! Many environment concious brides are beginning to turn to permanent flowers. These flowers and materials are typically re-used after the big day. In addition, environmental impacts of cutting down fresh flowers are not a concern. For the earth-friendly bride, many creative design options are available to help further reduce waste.
