Garden Style Flowers since 1995

• Flowers can be one of the major expenses for your
  wedding because you cant simply throw some stems
  together and call it a bouquet. Florists, having
  years of experience of dealing in flowers, know
  their blooms inside out. They can pick the
  perfect hue to match your palette, and also help
  deal with a flower related emergency. However, if
  you have decided to go for fresh flowers for
  wedding, and you want to do it yourself, here is
  a list of 10 Dos and Donts to help you with
  your floral quest.

Keep It Simple

• You might be pretty good at setting up beautiful
  bouquets in your home, but when it comes to
  creating ornate centre-pieces that requires
  knowledge, experience and also art. So, if you
  are a novice, you might want to keep your blooms
  simple and loose such as putting them in jars,
  scattering around foliage, or potted succulent. A
  much safer approach is to put similar colors or
  flowers together throughout.

Think of Longevity

• You can create some floral items one day before,
  such as buttonholes, foliage garlands or
  bouquets, however, theyll fade in no time once
  they are put out of water. So, you must only take
  them out at the last minute, and if possible keep
  spritzing them with water. To keep them fresh for
  a longer period of time, keep them away from
  perfume or hairspray.

5
Go for a Workshop

• If you are a novice, and know nothing about
  flowers, its better to do a class or
  consultation with a professional florist for a
  better perspective. There are many florists who
  offer one-on-one consultations to plan DIY
  blooms. They can also show you some great
  techniques, and simple tips which can help you
  abundantly.

Plan in Advance

• As with every other thing in life, preparation is
  the key for a better floral arrangement. Know the
  prices of flowers by visiting a wholesaler or
  flower market. You can ask them about best time
  to come to pick your blooms. Also, ask them if
  your required blooms have to be booked in
  advance.
• To perfect DIY Fresh flowers for wedding,
  practice more and more on hand tying bouquets,
  making oasis centerpieces, creating flower crowns
  or tying buttonholes. Do not spend too much on
  blooms to rehearse. Instead, practice on foliage
  stems easily available in your garden or Local
  Park.
• On the wedding days, make sure everything
  perfect. This includes preparing your flowers
  too. So trim your stems, and strip any leaves,
  shoots or thorns.

7
Look Online

• You can get a lot of help online about how to
  create floral heart or how to make flower crown.
  A lot of wedding blogs, Pinterest ideas and
  YouTube videos have lot helpful information and
  pictures to guide and inspire you.

Set up on some particular flower

• You might have dreamt of having the fanciest
  flowers on your wedding, like peonies, since you
  were a kid. While out to pick fresh flowers for
  wedding, try not to get your hopes up too much
  about particular blooms. Instead, go for those
  flowers which the seasons gift.

9
Do It Alone

• Before you go on your flower quest, ask anyone
  who has done fresh flowers for their own wedding.
  Getting help from other can make the process
  easier for you. Invite your friends over, give
  them the right tools, print some pictures of
  floral ideas which you like, and get rolling.

10
Do Everything

• By doing everything on your own, you might think
  of saving few bucks. But, think about the stress
  and effort you will have to put at a time when
  you might be having cold feet too. So think of
  recruiting a professional florist at least for
  your own bouquet, flower crown or other important
  décor, because you dont want a novices work in
  the spotlight.
