How to Make a Wedding Bouquet (Garden Style)

[@shabnomnom]

i'm doing my own flowers for my wedding this year and this is _exactly_ what i've been looking for! loose, natural, asymmetrical - rather than the perfect spheres of identical flowers you often see for bridal bouquets. thanks for sharing this tutorial!!

[@PassifloraStudio]

Thanks so much for watching, and best wishes on your wedding flowers...I'm sure that they will be beautiful!

[@amekudzievelyn6709]

Me too.

[@SAEells]

Informative, entertaining and personable! So proud of my very talented daughter!! ;-}

[@PassifloraStudio]

Thanks Mama!

[@PassifloraStudio]

Aw, love you so much Mom.

[@ttc958]

K this is adorable.

[@smjonesy1]

This is beautiful! I’m about to begin my floral journey and my mama is right behind me too 🥰 I love you content, thank you so much making it!

[@tesrivera9457]

Very educational tutorial! Thanks!Where do you buy your ribbon again?

[@courtneywootton4641]

I am a florist, but haven't learned a non-structured technique for bridal bouquets. My own wedding is coming up soon and I'll be doing my own florals for it. Your video is perfect for explaining exactly how I'd like my own bouquet, so thank you!!

This was a lovely video. Very informative and enjoyable to watch. I am making a bridal for my daughter tomorrow morning and this video has given me the confidence to go for it. Thank you.

[@PassifloraStudio]

That's music to my ears! So happy this helped you, and I hope that your daughter's bouquet (and wedding) were lovely!

[@carolineruth6272]

Your my favorite florist and grower to watch. I keep going back. Thanks for all the inspiration you give. It’s helpful for a new florist like me.

[@PassifloraStudio]

Thank you so much Caroline!!

[@Winthrop1981]

This was amazing!! I now, officially, have the confidence to make a bridal bouquet for a friend!! You are a great teacher and make this task attainable!

[@PassifloraStudio]

Ahhh, Karen, this makes me so happy! Happy flowering and thank you for your kind words. xx

[@FLORALWILLOW-qg1le]

good use of foliage - interestingly these colours are now becoming our most asked for at FLORAL and WILLOW designs .

[@PassifloraStudio]

Thank you! That is interesting on the colors. You can't go wrong with neutral tones. :)

[@heathermuto7321]

Other than you saying your bouquets have a “definite back” you explain a bouquet structure exactly how I would! From the prepping and stripping to making sure the flowers are on different planes. It was reassuring to hear. I’d love to know more about how you transport your bouquets. Regular vases are always too narrow!

[@firstenglish2604]

This video was exactly what I was looking for. I've always enjoyed arranging flowers with a nod to natural display & asymmetry- but so far, only in vases. Now I'm ready to make my own wedding bouquet. Thank you!

[@PassifloraStudio]

Aw, thank you, and best wishes on your bouquet!

[@AnneGassner]

I loved this video! Thank you so much. My brother in law's fiancé asked me to make her bridal bouquet but I am new to this and really needed this video! I love the mirror idea. Love all the details in your video. Thank you so much!

[@PassifloraStudio]

Thank you Anne! Please feel free to share the photo of the bouquet you make on Instagram. I love seeing what everyone creates! Happy creating! xx

[@carolekelly9060]

Such an inspiring tutorial! Your work really motivates me as an Aspiring Florist to one day design a bridal bouquet for a client's Big Day!

[@PassifloraStudio]

You can do it!! And thank you. ❤️

[@btolley59]

Thanks, Caroline! Excellent tutorial on a garden style "Bo-K" as we say here in Western N.C... I grew up in the "family flower business " but have been out of the industry about 30 yrs now! Old School for sure. My girlfriend recently asked me to do her niece's wedding arrangements (garden style of course) and I was perplexed about it until finding your video here, what a life-saver for sure!

[@PassifloraStudio]

Thanks for sharing, and for your kind words!

[@jaimemendizabal8860]

Your videos helped me arrange my own bridal bouquet and my fiancé’s boutonnière with loose flowers I bought online. Thank you so much!

[@PassifloraStudio]

So happy to hear this! Congratulations on your marriage!

[@catalinadiaz8911]

I miss doing floral 😢 you make it look fun

[@classicalmloo1216]

Great video! Also side note -his is a great example of how certain colors look great on certain people. I don't know about the whole winter/spring/cool/warm classification stuff, but this is certainly your color!

[@PassifloraStudio]

Thanks so much!

[@PassifloraStudio]

Thank you!

[@laurendoherty6251]

How far in advance should you make your bouquets? Whats the best way to put it in water without getting the ribbons wet?

[@Tahimik]

Thank you! I've been having trouble with arranging looser bouquets and I never thought of starting with the greenery as the frame.

[@PassifloraStudio]

So happy this helped you!

Hi.. would you like to see my real Brahma Kamal🌷 flower from my garden kzbin.info/www/bejne/a3yrgYN_l5eim5Y🌷🌸 queen of the night, lady of the night as its beautiful lotus like flower blooms late night. In India it is called as brahma Kamal and is treated as a sacred plant.🌷🌻🏵 hope you like it 🌼🌸

Love the color! U re great teacher! Thanks

[@lettyhippolito3528]

Thank you so much...I was afraid to make it looks ugly but was so awesome your mirror idea. That’s clever !

[@PassifloraStudio]

Thanks so much Letty...glad it worked out!

[@6305jenny]

This is a lovely tutorial and you are a great teacher. I want to make my own wedding bouquet. If I make it the night before, will it still stay fresh? Can you give me tips on preserving/storing the bouquet the night before so that it still looks fresh when I use it the next day?

[@PassifloraStudio]

Thank you so much! I always make my bouquets the day before. After made just place in fresh water in a cool, dark (out of direct sunlight) space and it will be perfectly fresh for wedding day! A little spritz of water on the blooms doesn't hurt either. Best wishes!

[@j_n_khan]

Beautiful bouquet! Please can you advise how many of each flower and greenery you used please

[@PassifloraStudio]

Hi! Thank you! I usually use 7-9 stems of greenery and 15-20 blooms.

[@terahenderson8089]

[@NotChoMamasChannel]

This is a great tutorial . How do you keep the flowers hydrated between pickup and the day of?

[@PassifloraStudio]

Hi Marie! Great question! That is the brides/clients responsibility, but I recommend cool, dark location and changing of water.

[@laurahancock9616]

I’ve watched this 3x…. Love it! I can’t seem to get the name of the terra-cotta roses you are using? If anyone knows I would appreciate your feedback. Great video! I love your artistry.

[@PassifloraStudio]

Hi Laura, thanks so much for watching and for your kind words! That rose is toffee rose. :)

[@candicemorgan-zs8er]

Hi there. Do you think if I bought flowers on a Thursday, they would still be fresh by Saturday? Should I keep them in water after assembly? Thanks! I'm a newb to flowers. Thanks!

[@PassifloraStudio]

Hi Candice! As long as you keep the florals in a cool, dark spot you should be fine to receive them on Thursday. Yes, always keep them in water after assembling. Good luck flowering!

[@darlenetedesco9461]

I love that bouquet. Thank you. Hope I get to see more from you.

[@PassifloraStudio]

Thank you Vivianna!

[@shannondarling1001]

Beautiful. I'm going to do something similar, but add succulents.

[@DRichRich]

Love this! Would you recommend making the bouquet a day before the wedding, or would the flowers last a few days after being cut short (assuming you put them in water and do the ribbon later)? This video is juat what I was looking for!

[@PassifloraStudio]

Hi! I always make the bouquet the day before as to keep it as fresh as possible. The best case scenario would be to make it the day before, keep the stems a little longer, and give a fresh, final cut the morning of, and then apply the ribbon. Best of luck! xx

[@carolinehorne6505]

Beautiful, love the soft colours. X

[@priscillaa5504]

[@PassifloraStudio]

Thank you!

[@lisarodriguez2728]

Hello! Gorgeous arrangement. What width ribbon do you normally use - 2 inch, 3 inch, 4 inch, etc.? And thank you for suggesting the Lesser Bear.

[@PassifloraStudio]

Thank you! My preference is 3", but normally I use 2" because it's more readily available. Hope that helps!

[@aprilsnow2296]

Where did you find these flowers? I don't know anything about planning weddings and stuff. How do you buy your bouquet?

[@PassifloraStudio]

I use wholesale suppliers. And also, flowers/greens picked from my garden.

[@Ngocly_Toyama]

How much flowers do you order for the wedding bouquet? And some left over for small table vase arrangements?

[@PassifloraStudio]

Hi! Usually a bunch of each variety.

[@salamander0209]

Any ball park on cost if I want to buy these similar types of flowers to make my own? I'm hoping to source from my local grocery store and Costco to make my own bouquet and bridesmaid's too. Mine will be ideally the same size in this video and the bridesmaids' will be a simplified version, maybe with just one rose and greenery. Still contemplating.

[@PassifloraStudio]

Hi Amanda! I would expect roughly $80-100 for the bouquets cost wise, as you will need to order full bunches.

[@salamander0209]

@@PassifloraStudio Good to know! Thanks

[@TaylaColeman-s7b]

This is amazing! What is the name of the greenery you have used please? ☺️

What kind of sheers do you use? They look very sharp and nice!

I LOVE this!!! Want to use it as a bridal bouquet... if you don’t mind, how would you make it smaller for a bridesmaid? 💕 thank you!

Hi Daniela! Just use few quantities of each variety, and then you'll have you're maids bouquets. :)

[@nadinealkharrat4931]

Hi!! I recently started working part-time at a flower shop. I really wanted to make my best friend an engagement bouquet as a gift. I’m having a hard time finding wholesale florists that ships to my home in not a big bulk supply, since I dont think I’ll be working at the shop for a long time :(. Do you have any advice on where to find flowers? Specifically looking for blue hydrangeas and delphiniums, as well as Dahlias for this bouquet! Thank you :)

[@PassifloraStudio]

Hi! I would try 50 Flowers and/or Sams Club. Or, you could locate a wholesale florist close to you and set up an account. Best of luck!
