3 Ways to Get Your Family Onboard with Silk Wedding Flowers

Helpful tips to convince your loved one to go faux over fresh

Planning a wedding can be one of the most exciting—and stressful—times of your life. With so many decisions to make and multiple people offering opinions (especially if they’re helping foot the bill), choosing the right vendors can be tricky. One big decision? Wedding flowers.

While fresh flowers are the traditional choice, many couples today are looking for budget-friendly and sustainable alternatives. That’s where Something Borrowed Blooms comes in—beautiful, realistic, and eco-conscious, with the bonus of convenience. But how do you help your family and friends understand the benefits of going faux?

We’re here to help you confidently share your decision with your loved ones—because seeing (and experiencing) is believing!

1. Sample our Flowers 💐

Curious to see our florals in person before placing your full wedding order? With our Preview Pack, you can experience our most popular products right at home—making it easy to share your favorites with the people helping you plan. It’s the perfect way to get everyone excited (and on board) with your SBBlooms vision.

What’s included:
