rose petals-real or fake?

Okay ladies this is the probably the silliest to ask, but I am curious. For those of you using rose petals to decorate your tables, is it better to use the real one's or the fake ones? Do the reals one shrivel up and stain or do the fake one's look too cheap? any thoughts are appreciated!

I had real ones on the tables for my wedding and they stayed fine the whole time.

Re: rose petals-real or fake?

Im going to use fake ones. I have sent away for so many samples and I think I found a pretty decent one, if you want I can give you the info. To me personally is anyone going to notice if they are real or fake and if they do notice will they really care. Most people I feel dont notice small details like that, they notice the food, the music, and the couple.

Re: rose petals-real or fake?

I'm using loose real rose petals to decorate my tables aside from having a high centerpieces. Our church doesn't allow to use real ones to shower the aisle, so we might use fake ones for that.
