Instructions
Step 1
Before you start creating a bouquet, decide on its shape, size and design. Think about how this or that option will be combined with the wedding dress and accessories.
Step 2
Start creating a bouquet by decorating a portaulette. Wrap her leg with packing tapes, decorate with green leaves. Place a floral sponge soaked in water in the middle of the bouquets. The sponge will help keep the bouquet fresh for a long time.
Step 3
Straighten the flower stems by removing excess leaves and shoots. If you decide to use roses for your wedding bouquet, then in addition to the leaves, you should also remove the thorns. The stems of roses should be split a little so that they absorb moisture better.
Step 4
Choose flowers so that they match in color and size. If you decide to make a bouquet of contrasting flowers, then carefully consider their arrangement in the composition. To get a visual idea of how the wedding flower arrangement will look like, you can sketch it by drawing the bouquet on paper and marking the location of each element with the corresponding color.
Step 5
When placing flowers in a bouquette box, make sure that the largest and heaviest flowers are located in the center; smaller flowers and buds are usually placed along the edges of the bouquette box. Each flower must be secured with wire, directing the stems to the center of the composition. When filling the bouquets, make sure that the flower stems are shortened to the edge of the bouquet. To do this, trim the stems with scissors as needed.
Step 6
Now you can start decorating the flower arrangement. When decorating a bouquet, try to avoid excesses so that the composition looks elegant and harmonious. If you decide to use beads, then string them on a wire, secure with a fold and decorate the composition around the edges.
Step 7
Pieces of tulle or organza in combination with delicate flower buds look very beautiful. They can be fixed between flowers, or you can use them to decorate the edges of the composition. Thin and airy fabric will add a touch of subtle charm and tenderness to the bouquet.
Step 8
If you are completely satisfied with the compiled flower arrangement, you can proceed to the final part - fixing the stems with a floral tape. Such a tape adheres perfectly to the flower stems and does not slip.
Step 9
To give the leaves in the composition a beautiful shine, cover them with a special floristic varnish.
