Flowers are Forever are a great independent florist. We met with Helen to discuss flowers for our wedding. She understood our vision and delivered what we requested. Her costs were very reasonable too.

Helen has been a pleasure to work with. I found Helen on Hitched after contacting several florists. I was quite specific around wanting faux flowers that looked real. From our first call Helen was professional, kind and attentive.

Helen was amazing and arranged the perfect flowers for me. Definitely would recommend anyone for their wedding and floral needs. Professional and beautifully arranged flowers. Will definitely be using her again. Thank you.

Tips & Advice

Why brides choose silk for their big day.

From the look and feel to the lasting memory, here's why so many couples are choosing real-touch silk wedding flowers.

Real-Touch Quality

Helen sources only premium real-touch silk stems. The petals feel soft and natural in the hand, and most guests assume they're real unless they're told otherwise.

Stays Perfect All Day

Silk arrangements look just as beautiful at the end of the night as they did when you got ready in the morning. Heat, cold or humidity make no difference — no wilting, no drooping, no last-minute floral drama.

Any Bloom, Any Season

Want peonies in November? Tulips in August? Silk gives you the exact flowers you've always pictured for your day, regardless of when you're getting married — no seasonal limits.

Allergy & Pollen Free

Silk flowers carry no pollen, so guests with hay fever or allergies can fully enjoy the day. A quietly thoughtful choice for anyone with sensitive guests.

A Lasting Keepsake

Your bouquet doesn't end with the wedding day. Silk flowers stay beautiful for years — a real heirloom from one of the most special moments of your life.

Travel & Destination Ready

Planning a destination wedding or moving flowers between venues? Silk arrangements pack into a hat box and travel beautifully — no fragile stems to worry about in transit.
