July 29th, 2008 by admin | Filed under Dried Flower Wreath.

Wedding flower bouquet is a beautiful wedding gift in which the bunch of flowers is tied together in a bouquet. These bouquets are wonderful presents that you gift to someone on his or her wedding. From the very ancient times, people prefer making bridal bouquet on weddings. You can make a beautiful dried cascade wedding bouquet for the newly wedded bride.

 

For making a dried flower wedding bouquet you will require the following materials:

 

Dried flowers

Hair spray

Floral foam

Bouquet holder

Greeneries

Wrapping foil

Satin ribbon

 

First of all, decide on the flowers that you wish to use in your bouquet. While doing so opt for those flowers that will complement the attire of the bride and the surrounding flower arrangements in the wedding.

 

Then purchase a bouquet holder from the local craft store. You will also be able to get one from any of the nearby florist shop. These bouquet holders have floral foam insert in them so it is better to soak them in water before use. This will provide you better results. Immerse the holder upside down in a bowl of water.

 

Once you are ready with the bouquet holder you cans tart placing the dried flowers in it. Remember to start placing the flowers from the bottom of the holder.  Next insert the dry flowers into the holder for the arrangement. For this you will have to cut the stem of the flower at sharp angles. The cut should at least be of 45 degree.  The sharp cut will make the stems go inside the foam easily.

 

Then you can start placing the flower into the holder, adjusting with the arrangement. Try to give your bouquet the cascade look with the varying placement of the dried flowers and the artificial filler and ferns. Trim the flowers to get the symmetry right.

 

At Last, wrap the bouquet holder with a wrapping foil and tie a satin ribbon into a bow at the point where the bouquet’s handle and the cone shaped part meets.

 

This is how you can create a wonderful bridal bouquet with dried flowers following some basic easy ways. After the wedding is over it will not be as easy as this, so make the most of this easy bouquet making method.
