Make a Bridal Bouquet

Most bridal bouquets can run between $150-$350, and up! You can make your own bridal bouquet! Below is a brief step-by-step tutorial.
This bouquet is made of six different flowers and fillers.
These are the flowers I chose for the bridal bouquet. Garden Roses will be the most expensive flower in the bouquet.
Trim the thorns and leaves off of all of your flowers. You may have some damaged petals, just snip them off. Once finished trimming place the flower back into the water immediately.
Start with your largest flowers first. Nestle the fillers and smaller flowers in between. Be careful not to have "clumps" of smaller flowers. Keep it light and airy.
When you begin to arrange you bouquet, after you have a few flowers put together, wrap the stems with twine.
Use satin or lace ribbon to wrap the stems. Attach a small bit of hot glue onto the twine to attach the beginning of the ribbon. Wrap all the way down them stems. Again, use hot glue to secure the ribbon. I wrapped the stems with satin ribbon, then lace.
When adding the lace start from the bottom of the stems and work your way up. That's it! For an even more detailed tutorial, stop by by blog. Thank you.
