Is it cheezy to have fake rose petals in the cones to be thrown at the church??

If so, I will get the real rose petals--but I was thinking about using fake ones--if I am completely losing it let me know!

We used fake ones and it was fine. I had to fight to get even the fake ones approved at my church.

I dont see why that would be cheesy. But real ones will disintergrate after they scatter - which might be better for the outside.

I've been to weddings where fake ones were used. It didn't seem cheesy at all.

Not cheesy, but you might have to get someone to clean up afterwards. Real ones less of a problem

If there's no restrictions, I would prefer the real petals than fake. If you can use the real ones why would you consider using fake petals?

Why do you want to use fake instead of real?

I used fake, since it is a hazard if you use real, they can be slipped on.

And you can do it ahead of time, real ahve to be done that am.
