As you know, the flowers, which the bride tenderly clutches in her hand throughout the wedding celebration, not only have a decorative function, but also acquire a sacred meaning. Exists huge amount legends, signs and beliefs associated with this bouquet, not to mention the fact that at the end of the significant evening the newlywed will have to part with the flowers - after all, it is quite possible that the bouquet will bring good luck to one of her unmarried friends...

So, if you don’t want to waste time and money on florists, who, moreover, will most likely not fully understand your plan, and, most importantly, if you want your bouquet to be charged with your energy, and not someone else’s Also, we suggest you try to assemble your ideal bouquet yourself.

Choice of colors

Usually, brides prefer roses, this is not surprising: according to tradition, roses in delicate shades are considered an attribute of femininity and girlish beauty. It is not for nothing that according to legend, when Aphrodite emerged from the sea foam onto the shore, wherever she stepped with her feet, these wonderful flowers bloomed. So, roses are the first and most reliable option, firstly, due to their appearance, and secondly, because of their durability. Roses are practically the only flowers that will last all day without any problems without losing their petals. If you prefer to give up roses and pay attention to more original options, then you can safely use lilies. The bride’s bouquet is also often collected from peonies: they symbolize a strong marriage, a happy family, tender love, fun and compassion. The only trouble is that peonies are perhaps the most short-lived of all possible flowers.

Pay attention to the orchids. These beautiful plants are a symbol of freshness, purity and tenderness; they are considered the aristocrats of the flower world. A bouquet made from them will be a wonderful addition to the bride’s delicate image, will emphasize her charm, and such a bouquet can remain fresh for quite a long time. But the most extravagant flowers, which, oddly enough, are also often used to create wedding masterpieces - calla lilies. This plant came into fashion at the beginning of the 20th century - then at the peak of popularity were heavy bouquets with long stems decorated with massive bows. Despite the fact that callas are considered masculine flowers, they are characterized by sophistication and tenderness; a flower arrangement made from them will be an ideal addition to the bride’s image. Such flowers look great in a solo bouquet; they are elegant and chic even without any addition. And their durability allows the happy newlywed not to worry about the preservation of flowers throughout the day.

If you have to on your wedding day large number movements, you can prefer the most reliable and simple option - artificial flowers. Of course, such a bouquet will not exude aroma, but it can be made of any color and shape, complemented with fancy figures, and most importantly, it will definitely be absolutely unique. And this is where you can indulge in pleasure and put together a bouquet, for example, of poppies and other wildflowers, which are not durable, but incredibly sweet and tender.

Beauty is in the little things

The easiest way to assemble a bouquet is also the most popular: this is a miniature round bouquet, the basis for which is a porta bouquet - it will allow you to preserve the freshness and proper appearance of the flowers for a long time, because they will accompany the bride all day and part of the night.

To make such a bouquet you will need:

porta bouquet holder;
oasis;
twisted cord or ribbons;
double sided tape.

You will also have to take care of a sharp knife, various decorative items - sparkling crystals, pearls, glass beads, in short, everything that you think will match your little masterpiece. You will also need to purchase glue and, most importantly, fresh flowers and decorative greenery.

Let's get started

To begin with, you have to decorate the bouquet holder, because, as you know, a work of art consists of little things, so you shouldn’t lose sight of anything. Fill the handle with pieces of hygroscopic material, in other words, napkins or toilet paper - this will allow the flowers to hold tightly in the bouquet holder and not fall out at the most crucial moment. Most often, the handle is wrapped with tape or twisted cord, using a glue gun to securely fix them. Now wrap the handle with cling film - this is necessary in order not to accidentally stain the finished part of the bouquet when making another.

Preparing the oasis

Oasis - a term used by florists, actually means a sponge, which is used in floristry as a base for creating compositions from freshly cut flowers. As a rule, an oasis is made of a material with capillary properties that absorbs moisture well and retains moisture for a long time. So, while you are decorating the porta bouquet, the oasis needs to be immersed in water so that it gets properly wet. There is no point in trying to speed up the process: if you press on the sponge, it will only deform or fall apart. It’s very easy to check its readiness: it will darken, become heavier and sink to the bottom.

When the sponge has reached the desired condition, you should carefully remove it from the water and move it to the porta bouquet, securing the oasis with wire. The principle is extremely simple: the more firmly you attach one element to another, the longer the bouquet will last you.

Making the base of the bouquet

We need to drape the upper part of the porta bouquet with greenery. For example, the leaves of roses or any other plant that will not dry out before arriving at the registry office are perfect. We recommend gluing the leaves overlapping, using double-sided tape.

The flower stems must be fastened together. If you don’t have confidence in your own abilities, we offer you ready-made pen covers - they are made of fabric or a special spider web thread. But if you are seriously asking yourself how to make a bridal bouquet yourself, you should keep in mind that the cuff and bouquet holder decorated with fresh greenery look much more elegant.

Moment X

And now, finally, the time has come for the most important stage - filling the porta bouquet with flowers! The stems should be trimmed, leaving about 6 cm in length: inserted into the oasis, so they will hold tightly without interfering with each other. Flowers must be inserted in a circle, as close to each other as possible. If you want to “dilute” the flowers with greenery, leave small gaps between the buds. Now. When the main part is ready, you can start decorating. In matters of decoration, the main thing is not to lose your mind - a shiny bouquet, where real flowers are not visible behind the rhinestones, is unlikely to make a positive impression on those around you.

It is also necessary to remember that the first pancake, as everyone knows, is lumpy, so you will have to stock up not only with a large amount of materials “in reserve,” but also practice in advance. If you didn't manage to create the perfect bridal bouquet the first time, don't despair, try again!

You can buy a ready-made bouquet for your wedding, reducing wedding hassle. Or you can surprise your guests with a hand-made bouquet.

An important attribute of a wedding celebration is the bride's bouquet. The symbol of the groom presenting a bouquet to the bride on the wedding day is confirmation of the proposal made to his beloved. If the bride accepted the bouquet, it means she agrees to marry him.

The bride should not let go of the presented bouquet until the very beginning of the banquet. Therefore, the bouquet is an integral part of the wedding wardrobe. The selection of which must be taken no less carefully than any other part of the bride’s image.

You can order a wedding bouquet from a florist. But suddenly, despite all the advantages of a specialist, the bouquet will not be to your taste. To avoid disappointment and spoil the important day of your life, you can prepare a wedding bouquet with your own hands.

Individuality is required when designing a wedding bouquet for a wedding. Floristry knows how to make a bride's bouquet with your own hands from fresh flowers in such a way as to surprise and discourage. The following works are popular:

Small compositions;
Ball-shaped - based on a portobouquet;
Cascade;
Vertical (on long stems);
Arbitrary;
It is independently formed from the petals of a bud;
Avant-garde, non-standard (in the form of a belt, handbag or fan).

Basics of home floristry

To figure out how to correctly formulate a reliable work, learn the basics. We will consider in detail the following formation methods:

On the stems. The composition is formed from varieties with a long stem;
On a wire. A wire is inserted inside each stem. The stems become brittle;
Bouquet in a portaquet holder. Portbuketnitsa is a foam ball on a plastic handle, it is moistened in water. When the porta bouquet is saturated with water, it preserves the freshness of the elements. This design creates spherical compositions.

The last option is simple. If there are no floral tools, then choose the first method. It is budget-friendly, convenient, and requires a minimum amount of time. If you are still interested in how to make a bridal bouquet with your own hands from fresh flowers, let’s get started.

Step-by-step instructions “on the stems”

Since this option is easy, we'll start with it. We will figure out how to make a bouquet for the bride with our own hands, having a minimum number of tools and materials. To compose hydrangeas and chrysanthemums on stems we will need:

Twine made of natural material – 1 pc.;
Floral wire – 1 package;
Organza ribbon 5 cm wide;
Secateurs or scissors;
Pushpin.

Choose the number of flowers in the bouquet that suits you. Before moving on to the step-by-step creation, we note that everything will be done in white with brown shades. A bouquet without a porta bouquet looks gentle at a wedding, emphasizing the neatness of the future wife. These secrets will tell you how to make a bridal bouquet with your own hands from fresh flowers.

1. First, prepare the material: cut off the excess leaves with pruning shears. We form a triangle out of 3 hydrangeas, put 3 more flowers below, thus leaving space in the center. We carefully insert the last hydrangea there so that it rises above the rest.

2. We surround the ready-made wedding bouquet with white chrysanthemums. It turns out that we also form a triangle from them, only an external one.

3. We fix the stems with floral wire at the base so that they do not fall apart. Carefully trim the ends with pruning shears.

4.Now we decorate the “handle” of the bride’s bouquet of fresh flowers: we wrap the stems with ribbon from bottom to top, and then secure it with a button.

5.Use twine to overlap the ribbon in a loose form to add an accent and create a real masterpiece.

Step-by-step creation of a composition with a porta bouquet

Let's find out how to make a bride's bouquet with your own hands from fresh flowers, as well as which options are popular. Wedding bouquets of spherical fresh flowers are in demand because they seem fabulous. They look harmonious, neat and tidy. The formation, which is based on a porta bouquet, has secrets on which the lifespan and preservation of the appearance of the composition depend. To create we need:

Porta bouquet;
Satin ribbon;
Double-sided tape;
Scotch anchor;
Tape;
Knife, pruning shears or scissors;
Glue gun;
Water;

So, we will begin to create a bride’s bouquet with our own hands using fresh flowers step by step (photos clearly demonstrate the result). Choose the material that will match each other in color. Light colors are suitable for young girls, while a dark color palette will emphasize the femininity and elegance of women. Be careful, because a bride’s bouquet of fresh flowers with your own hands is a responsible matter that requires seriousness and concentration. Also pay attention to the size of the bride's bouquet of fresh roses. If the girl is large, then a small object will distort and visually enlarge, but neat, miniature compositions are suitable for short ones.

1. Prepare the porta bouquet: open and insert a long piece of oasis. Oasis is a special foam sponge that is soaked in water. It can be purchased at a salon or ordered online.

2. We decorate the expanding part of the portaquet with leaves. Glue it in a circle with double-sided tape. To secure, glue the ends of the leaves with anchor tape on top. The leaves do not fall apart, but for aesthetic purposes, we will hide the tape behind a green tape.

3. Wet the round part of the oasis in cold water. It is important that the sponge is soaked evenly. Why is this important? Elements of a work must be nourished to maintain freshness.

4.Decorating the handle. We seal the end with satin ribbon and double-sided tape. Next, we wrap the tape along the handle and cover it with tape. We glue the tip under the base with hot glue. For this you will need a glue gun. You can buy a glue gun in a decor store or order it online on the website.

5. Decorate the cuff. First we decorate with leaves, which we cut at an angle and stick in. Why do we trim leaves? To keep them fresh longer, an oblique cut increases the area of the stem that will be saturated with water. Under the weight, the moisture from the round oasis will fall down. We inserted an oblong piece of sponge, which will absorb excess moisture so as not to spoil the handle.

6. All we have left is to decorate the spherical sponge. You can opt for the classic version of a bouquet of roses. We leave 6 cm of the stem so that it is convenient to insert into the oasis.

This instruction explains how to make a bouquet for the bride with your own hands. In addition to the compositions, also decorate the tables, the boutonniere of the groom and witnesses, and create a design for the presenter’s microphone. Remember: a wedding is all about the details.
