Nothing says eternal love like pizza, not to mention the financial benefits for a wedding.
Many wedding parties are looking at alternatives to a flower bouquet and opting for edible versions, including pizza. The financial benefit of opting for an edible bouquet offers a creative alternative and something that can be enjoyed as a snack.
Traditional flower bouquets come with a lot of red tape in choosing flowers for a wedding that fluctuates in price through given flowers, time of season, and availability. Another set-back on flower is that there is often an up-charge when they are needed specifically for a wedding.
In a study conducted by theKnot.com in 2014 the average amount spent on a florist for weddings (including bouquets, boutonnieres, and center pieces) was over $2,100. This amount is 7 percent of the average budget cost of a wedding.
With using an edible alternative can vary in price range and is often lower than the cost of flowers. The good thing about using an alternative for bouquets other than flowers can also reduce the need for flowers as centerpieces or boutonnieres. The alternative option for edible arrangements can also cut the flower budget, not having to worry about a florist.
This trend is also picking up in the wedding industry, including a pizza company celebrating the upcoming wedding season with a special contest. Villa Italian Pizza is offering the chance for couples getting married soon to provide their wedding party with edible pizza bouquets and boutonnieres.
The contest just ended and Villa will be announcing the winners soon. Check out the video above for more on the edible bouquet alternative.
