I'm going to let you in on a little secret. You don’t have to be an avid crafter or have any crafting experience at all to DIY (Do-It-Yourself) when it comes to your wedding flowers and wedding decorations.
Here are some tips on how to make a DIY wedding flower bouquet. This DIY Bright Rustic Bouquet would be perfect for anyone looking for a simple project, a quick arrangement and flowers on a budget.
Here is how we keep it simple, quick and under a budget:
Use silk wedding flower stems and pre-made bouquet from Afloral.com.
This DIY Bright Rustic Wedding Bouquet inspiration comes to us from Style Me Pretty. We are going to create our own DIY version of this bouquet using Afloral.com silk wedding flowers and accessories.


This bouquet isn’t too complicated it is primarily composed of ranunculus stems with a few roses and rose buds tucked into the arrangement. This is a simple, easy and quick DIY project because we are going to use a pre-made silk flower bouquet as the foundation.


The pre-made silk ranunculus bouquet captures the bright hues found in our inspiration photo with the same type of flowers. Note: the pre-made bouquet pictured does include some purple florals and green buds, you may leave them in for an extra pop of color or omit them to get the same look as the inspiration bouquet.


Instructions:


Begin with the pre-made bouquet. This is the foundation to add more floral stems too and build a fuller bouquet.


Disassemble the pre-made bouquet by removing the wire securing the stems. Still holding the bouquet together with one hand, slip out the purple and green buds and remove the greenery with the other.


Trim the single stem faux ranunculus, fuchsia roses and rose buds and remove the greenery.


Next using the inspiration photo as reference slip singular stems into the bouquet. Note: add yellow ranunculus along the outside of the arrangement, the rose buds are tucked in along the outside and travel up through the bouquet and the fuchsia roses slip into place filling out the rest of the bouquet.


Select a few stems of greenery to sit low underneath the base of the bouquet.


Secure the bouquet with wire or floral tape, and then trim all of the stems to an equal length.


Finish the bouquet with burlap ribbon as a bouquet wrap.


Using silk flowers keeps this DIY wedding bouquet affordable, and using a pre-made bouquet keeps it quick and easy.


Tip: Go for an even easier DIY project with your bridesmaids’ bouquets. Purchase the same pre-made bouquet we used as the foundation in this project and just wrap the stems in burlap ribbon for a smaller version perfect for bridesmaids.
