Have you considered using silk flowers for your destination wedding?  About 20% of our silk flower bridal packages are ordered specifically to ease the concern of travelling with fresh flowers, or the practicality of working long distance with a fresh florist in another city, state, country.  

 

There are some brides who are very happy with using silk, and some who would never dream of not using fresh.

If brides are traveling outside the country, silks are a great idea. Since flowers cannot be transported outside the country and flowers cannot be transported back to the US from other destinations, it makes sense if the bride really wants a great keepsake.

I too agree that it is up to one’s personal preference that whether they want natural flowers or can adjust with silk flowers. However, no one can deny the benefits of silk flowers especially for destination weddings and also when you want to keep them for longer span of time.

I am a great fan of silk flowers - I have bought here before  Artificial Flowers
