Essential Tools for Floral Crafting:
Before you dive into creating your wedding florals, make sure you have the following essential tools on hand:
Sharp Floral Scissors or Pruners:Â Ensure precise and clean cuts to keep your flowers fresh and healthy.
Floral Tape and Wire:Â Ideal for creating boutonnieres, corsages, and securing delicate stems in arrangements.
Floral Foam or Frog Pins:Â These tools help with arranging and securing stems in floral containers.
Buckets or Vases:Â Have an assortment of containers to hold your blooms as you work and display the finished arrangements.
Water Tubes or Floral Picks:Â Essential for keeping delicate flowers hydrated and fresh.
Ribbon and Pins:Â To add the finishing touches to bouquets and arrangements.
Planning and Prepping:
Begin by sketching your floral vision and creating a rough plan for your arrangements. Consider the size and style of your wedding, the color palette, and the specific floral elements you'd like to include. Once you have a clear vision, start by conditioning your flowers – trim stems, remove excess leaves, and hydrate them in water.
Crafting Bouquets and Arrangements:
Start assembling your bouquets and arrangements, working with one flower type at a time. Begin with the focal flowers, add in secondary blooms, and then incorporate textural elements. Don't be afraid to experiment with different combinations and styles. The beauty of DIY florals lies in their uniqueness and personal touch.
Storing and Transporting:
Once your wedding florals are crafted, store them in a cool and dark space to keep them fresh. When transporting, secure them in water-filled containers to prevent wilting.
Embracing the Experience:
Crafting your own wedding florals is a journey filled with creativity, joy, and personal connection. Embrace the imperfections, relish in the process, and know that your handcrafted blooms will carry the essence of your love on your special day.
