Creating My First Wedding Bouquet

[@AvatarPrimus]

KZbin just sugested this video to me 6 years later and Wow, what a ride! The garden of the old house, a blonde Laura and Aaron without a cap, and still the same wonderful vibe, it was worth it! And the bouquet is MAGNIFICENT, Laura! Love it!

[@chriscousineau394]

I have never seen a succulent bouquet. It’s so beautifully different and elegant. You are so talented. What a living memory to have. Oh Laura you are so amazing talented

[@boblybell]

I am so glad that you shared this video and I found it! My maid-of-honor and I made my succulent wedding bouquet with the help of your video and it turned out to be a very nice one! Thank you!

[@angelwolfe6728]

2023 now!! Beautiful bouquet and an absolute stunning bride!✨Loved this so much!

[@amywallace2508]

OMG! This bouquet is AMAZINGLY beautiful! My son is getting married Nov 2019 and we will do as many DIY items as possible. I'm going to offer to do the bouquets to save money.

[@heathermelanson5492]

I would love to see the flowers at YOUR wedding!! I would love to see a video if you have one.

[@zukosmom3780]

Look at your blonde hair!! I love it!!! Laura, that bouquet is so beautiful. You are so talented

[@susiefrederickson660]

Totally love the blond look!! Laura you’re so good about taking on projects that you don’t have a lot of experience in. It inspires me to move beyond the familiar and flex my creative muscles.

[@gabbinggaby]

I've been looking everywhere for a bouquet that I like and I am DEFINITELY having my florist make me this for my wedding. THANK YOU

[@saramadison9853]

So gorgeous. As a beginner I am inspired by your videos. I've learned a lot by watching them. So glad you have a channel.

[@ryans7146]

I know I'm late to this party but that turned out amazing! It was beautiful! Your work is so professional looking and your techniques are really good.

[@lindak7499]

Classy bouquets like that never go out of style. Thanks for sharing an older video.

[@kristinet4157]

I loved watching every minute of you making that arrangement and loved the bride holding it, so special!

[@TheJuleBoxStudios]

oh my goodness woman!! what an elegant bouquet you made, loved the succulets and making it the very center was just perfect! I think there will be many new brides knocking at your door to have you make their bouquet....oh yes I do! you did an awesome job Laura! just awesome! xo

[@gardenanswer]

+Jules Aviles Hi Jules! How are all your succulents doing? Thank you so much for watching! It was a fun project- I was super nervous to try it knowing that I had a bride expecting something amazing... I was so thankful that it turned out! :)

[@upwayevents5512]

It's was beautiful I loved it too much

[@radhikam2401]

Laura and Aaron - you guys are so talented. I am so inspired by it. Congrats on the baby. Much love.

[@jdansbee]

I really liked the bouquet! Great job. I loved the color combinations.

[@virnaflowerfarm]

Oh it's fun to go back and see your beginning! I have followed for 2yrs and this one popped up today.

[@Donna-kp3ko]

Great job, I made my daughter in-laws and her bridesmaids bouquets in November that were very similar. I loved it and they were beautiful!

[@13dulcie]

So beautiful!!! The bride looked amazing. Just lovely🌸

[@lorenabrown9311]

Beautiful garden. My son's wedding is coming soon and i want to make all the floral arrangements including the bouquets, boutonnieres, corsages and centerpieces. Your video was very helpful, thank you!

[@pinkyhaus3426]

That is the most beautiful bouquet ever! You have a marvelous eye for color and design.

[@kimaponte7082]

So much work an love you put into your projects. You are truly an amazing woman in everything you do. 🌳🌳🌳💚💚💚💚

[@LilmissPinkaleen]

Can't wait to do mine next weekend, it's my wedding on the 1st and I'll be making 3 bridesmaid bouquets my bouquet and a small one for my flower girl so excited! I've been growing my succulents for this and have been looking after them for nearly a year to get them to this point has been amazing and all thanks to your channel! Thank you very much for everything you do. Lots of love from New Zealand

[@HighConCannibal]

Omg Laura, I know im late, but, im a florist and if you ever need a job in Denmark, i will tell my boss about you xD But seriously, that is beautiful!

[@whitleymunns9727]

This video made me so happy. Having a wedding one day is my dream and being able to put something I love into my own bouquet makes me feel so excited. Im hoping that I can learn to make my own bouquet for my special day! Thank you

[@Amanda-tx8tl]

Amazing, love this idea! I kept seeing pictures of this type of bouquet everywhere,without any real tutorials on how to get those beautiful succulents in there.You made it look very easy!

[@LaurieEggleston37]

I am watching this in May of 2020. It hit me that since we are all in quarantine now, this video would be so helpful for June Brides 2020 who might have to make their own bouquet. You are so very talented. I just love my "Garden Answer" time since being stuck at the house! Maybe if you see this you could come up with a variety of wedding bouquets - farmhouse, formal, casual, etc. I know you are busy, though! You have a new house, a new property, and a very busy little Benjamin at this time!

[@EileenWstCstGrl]

A wedding bouquet with succulents...and So Beautiful! I'm thoroughly enjoying your videos!

[@gardenanswer]

+Eileen Mailloux You are so sweet! Thank you!

[@miaschu7614]

Very pretty, and I love roses when they are just opening :) And how lovely to be part of someone's special day.

[@BloominIvy]

Been following you for a couple years and wanted to look for the recent video you guys did where your cousin got married in your yard so I could see the bouquet again. HOWEVER, I came across this and have not seen you with blonde hair before (even though you have mentioned having had it) it's cute, but the auburn is definitely more suited for you. I see why you stick with it. This bouquet is stunning and looks easier than I thought. My daughter is getting married next year, she LOVES succulents and I grow all of these except the David Austin's. I may do ranunculus instead. Thanks Blonde Laura! ;)

[@Skywatcher_57]

The bouquet and your arrangement with your leftovers was beautiful as well.

[@cindyd.5507]

Wow, Love that bouquet , perfect. Just started watching your videos and I am loving all of the gardens tours and extras, great work.

[@beckireynolds1343]

Such a pretty and unique bouquet, I bet the bride was over the moon xx

[@kerryjean2223]

Prettiest bouquet I think I have ever seen thanks to those succulents x

[@deborahdavid9426]

I am enjoying watching your informative vedios I have learned so much about plants and how to care for them. I love gardening. Thank you so much.

[@ThoseAnnoyingVegans]

Wow!! Thank you so much for the detailed demonstration!! This is exactly the kind of bouquet we were dreaming up for our wedding! The soft peaches and dreamy blues look beautiful. Can't wait!!!

[@janesmith9950]

Wonderful professional job and very professional. All the best. 🌹🌷🌸🌼🌻🌺

[@gardenanswer]

Thank you so much! :)

[@carolekelly9060]

So inspirational to watch your bridal bouquet video. I have never made a bridal bouquet while on work experience in a flower shop but, it's inspired me to practice making one at home. Never thought of succulents before but, now I'm converted! Have a great day! Greetings from Ireland!

[@bajangirl630]

Is there anything floral you cannot do? That bouquet was gorgeous. Soo beautiful!!

[@brindathompson5658]

Beautiful bouquet. I love your hair. I had not seen it this color, it is usually red. Your hair always looks pretty. I do love the blonde.

[@dul2011]

Omg you are so talented! You have the perfect touch for everything :) I love your personality can't stop watching you're succulent videos🙌🏼

[@gardenanswer]

+dul2011 You are so sweet! Thank you so much!!! :)

[@judithjohnson2111]

I enjoyed seeing this. A beautiful bouquet. Your so talented Laura. And thank you Aaron for a great video. What a team. Love it💙

[@midwestgirl9192]

Wow! :O That was probably the most beautiful wedding bouquet I've ever seen. Seriously. Wow.

[@seriouslyreally5413]

The succulent bouquet is stunning!

[@PzNguyen]

That looks just perfect with her dress and hair!

[@leticianavarro9821]

I was asked by a good friend if I would be willing to make her bouquet for her wedding that would include succulents. I'm very creative and if I set my mind to do something I usually succeed, but this time I wasn't so sure. I've never worked with fresh flowers before and I was really nervous. I looked for videos and that's when I came across this video and it so spot on that I was able to create a beautiful bouquet. And I just wanted to say thank you so much, you are very inspiring.

[@gardenanswer]

+Leticia Navarro I am so SO happy that our video helped you out! I was a little nervous to do my bouquet as well, I was really happy that it turned out and stayed in one piece! Ha! :) Thanks for watching! ~Laura

[@lifeaccordingtome]

When leaves are in the water and starts to decay, they produce ethylene gas. Ethylene gas causes the flowers to mature quicker, so it kills them faster.

[@nspector]

Ah, thanks. I knew the decaying leaves were bad, but didn't really know why.

[@dlsdyer9071]

Good to know

[@koutsoullis]

This is the most beautiful wedding bouquet i've ever seen xxxxx

[@kassiegriffith4974]

This is awesome, I found your channel yesterday and shared your video of the little stone angel succulent garden with my mom and sister only to find out from my sister that not only are they already following you on Facebook and KZbin, but that you are actually from our home town! Then I get on here today and see you making a bouquet for a beautiful wedding at the same place I was married at! I love it! I love your videos and ideas, can't wait to see more.

[@gardenanswer]

+Kassie Griffith Thank you so much for such a sweet comment! :) It's so much fun to connect with new people, especially people who are local! We have lots in store for this gardening season- I'm excited to tackle some new projects and make lots of videos!

[@conniehenderson3881]

Your BEAUTIFUL bouquet was picture perfect! I really enjoyed this video. Nice Job!

[@shirleysenkler781]

Great bouquet, love the colors. You have talent for mixing color and texture as we can see from your gardens.

[@gerrysandygathje5595]

When I watched this video the first time it made me want to order some seed for the large leaf Dusty Miller. They are up and growing and I can't wait to try it. Keep up the great job!

[@Ikebanabeautiful]

Love the colors of this bouquet! Fragile and classy. Thanks for sharing and making this video!

[@crazee4makeup]

Wow!!! Beautiful bouquet 💐 the colors really complimented each other nicely!! Great job!

[@Uneedmoremeds]

Absolutely stunning. I wish I had a succulent bouquet for my wedding. I wound up with silk flowers which I still own but this would have been amazing. As always an awesome job Laura.

[@cherrose100]

That bouquet turned out absolutely beautiful Laura ... well done 👍🏼🕊

[@crystalamrita]

This bouquet is stunning. You did such a great job.

[@anasierra4376]

Que bello jardin y la habilidad que tienes con las flores!!!

[@deborahdavid9426]

You have a amazing creativeness to perform arrangements of different colors size n locations to stop it.

[@lovekcdillas]

I absolutely love this! My wedding colors are also a dusty blue and peachy pink, and anyone who's seen my porch knows that I love succulents; this would be perfect! Thanks for a great tutorial.

[@snelson2418]

Good job! Maybe pin the ribbon as hot glue can let go when cold. Beautiful!

[@DanielPerez-ov2pr]

What a gorgeous bouquet. Well done.

[@jenniferhenderson4674]

Whoa, Laura! I am loving this video! Look where you are today🌼

[@succulentaesthetics6620]

Hi Laura, you are my inspiration 💕. Keep inspiring people.

[@buckeyejen1076]

Wow, that is an incredibly beautiful bouquet!

[@erins.5420]

Wow 2015! Woman you’re killin it!!! Your the Martha Stewart of gardening.

Such a beautiful bouquet and inspirational video.

[@angelaangela1312]

That is absolutely a beautiful bouquet

[@floristjeonginus6801]

OMG!! You did a great job~ I like the color of flowers and greenery.. it turned out really nice~ loved it!!

[@irynamorenodeaquino6164]

My god! I found the similar picture of this bouquet in Pinterest. And I'm so happy that I found your video! Thank you, because I found my wedding bouquet ♥️

[@TheLawnCareNut]

You've gone to a new level here! First off, really cool to see you go out of your comfort zone and completely nail it! Also cool to see more of your area and how rustic and beautiful it is. And what is this sheep barn you speak of? :) Your parents place looks like it could be somewhere in Napa Valley surrounded by vineyards. ... Keep up the awesome vids, your channel is gonna blow up!

[@gardenanswer]

The Lawn Care Nut I liked doing a video where I wasn't trying to 'impart' some kind of knowledge... took the pressure off a little bit! ;) The sheep would NOT cooperate and come up to the barn, I really wanted to show them off (they're a cool heirloom breed). Also, I've been recommending the video that you did a month or so ago about spraying clover out of your lawn and how important it is to use a surfactant. I swear people don't believe me when I explain why they should use it. Now, I tell them about it and refer them to your channel! Thank you so much for the comment! ~Laura

[@socorrom5293]

@@gardenanswer Well i think the reason the sheep didn't cooperate is bc they were hiding since you mentioned "eating one of the cows"😲😲😲

[@zaria5785]

Socorro M 😆

[@TheIsabellakirra]

Florist tip! You can spin the roses upside down in between both your palms to help them open up!

[@hewlla1]

OMG I´m so in love for your work!!! It´s amazing!!! Congrats!!! To bad i´m in Brazil otherwise i´ll probably became your client! for sure!!!

[@empiricalpallas6709]

I just started watching you , and youre videos are sooo inspiring and lovely to watch, this is the first vid I clicked on with having blonde hair!! soo pretty!!!!! keep doing what you do its so relaxing!!!

[@zaria5785]

Hi Laura! Any chance you will do more wedding bouquets? 💐 Your choice of flowers was rustic yet elegant. I loved it!

[@kathleenfout7883]

Love the flower choice & colors!

[@FlawlessCrochetFlowers]

Beautiful first bouquet! What an inspiration!

[@jamiemarie5103]

This was so lovely! Definitely booking you for my wedding someday! 💕

[@atticusfinch4266]

I use 5/8 in white pearl straight pins along the edge of the ribbon and into the stems

[@laurenkay6258]

I like that you can learn so much from just one person.😀

[@lisadonnelly3264]

Beautiful arrangement Laura

[@christiegurganus254]

I'm impressed with your 1st bouquet! It looked great with her striking red hair. Nice tutorial on the succulent stemming. I always wondered 'bout that!

[@gardenanswer]

Thank you so much! I was so nervous about how it would turn out- the bride loved it, so I was happy! (I loved her red hair, too)!

[@christiegurganus254]

Your eye for color and balance are spot on. I think that's what makes a good floral designer in the end. :)

[@minafanelli8931]

+Garden Answer Excellent job! What a classy beautiful bride... Timeless look all together, love it!

[@Ciregina]

I loved it !!! I will make a fair Brides here and asked me a bouquet like that! Thank you for teaching us! Congratulations!! :)))))

[@tottieshubinels4201]

hi...! i'm tottie and i've been working here in KSA as a florist about a year now and i love watching your videos me myself i do really like your works and the really good thing about your works is it's very simple but really elegant ., and i'm learning new things.! hope to see more of your creations.! i thought it was just an arrangement thing on how to do this and that but when you went to your gander and pick those leaves and roses...... my only reaction while watching your video was "Ohh myyy Gooossshhh,..!" #How i wish to visit that garden and personally pick those leaves and roses..! #LLLLoooooVVVVeeeeeIIItttt.!

[@gardenanswer]

+Alvin Espinosa If you've been working as a florist for a year, I could probably learn a lot from you! I was thankful this bouquet turned out the way it did since I had never made a bride's bouquet before. I do love having a garden that I can gather from! That's one of my favorite things to do! During the season, I can go out and make fresh bouquets from my house at no cost! :) ~Laura

[@AnniaDamarys]

I love your channel! You could definitely have a TV show on DIY channel

[@dragonflyy000]

Stunningly beautiful!!!

[@ondreyafloral9808]

This was so helpful! Well done and thank you! I am ready to do my first wedding bouquet now: )

[@irynamck6026]

I know this video is two year old, but I just couldn't hold myself from comenting and wanted to tell you that you did a great job ,this bouquet is absolutely beautiful! I also think there's something to do with your great positive personality :) I've learned something new about the succulents ,thank you so much! Oh and of course that Carden is amazing!

[@dahlianutkaren]

nice job - it helps to tape after a few stems at a time to secure your bouquet

[@rachelleford1028]

Beautiful!!! I would love to see a garden tour as well :) I know nothing about plants but would love to have a beautiful outside space like yours one day!
