Make Beautiful Wedding Bouquets with Wildflowers
Flowers are the ubiquitous accessory to weddings, and for good
reason. They make a statement and create an atmosphere for the
couple and their guests. Well what is more beautiful than a bouquet
of wildflowers? Creating this gorgeous bouquet of wildflowers is
easy for anyone.
Bouquet Shapes and Styles
First you will need to decide what flowers you will want and what
shape or style of bouquet fits you the best. For example, you could
have a hand tied style, which conveys natural and simple beauty, the
colonial bouquet, the standard looking style bouquet held right in
front in a neat little bunch, the small nosegay, quit like the
colonial but smaller and held somewhat to the side, or a cascading
style, one that hangs down in front. Cascading is a very popular and
beautiful style and hand tied is also very appealing for
wildflowers. One can use any flowers they would like and any style.
This article will use the cascading style and the simple daisy.
Creating A Cascading Wedding Bouquet with Daisies
Daisies are simple, beautiful and a great
wildflower. For this particular cascading bouquet you will need a
plastic foam floral bouquet handle, available at the nearest arts
and crafts store. A great idea is to pick a variety of colors for
the daisies because some might feel that all plain might be to
boring. Good common colors are purple, pink, and white. You will
find that there will be different shades of each color that might
coordinate very well with each other in this case it would be great
to throw these shades in there for more eye appeal.
Once the daisies are picked one you can arrange
them in a way that appeals to you. A great idea is to bunch a color
around the outside and work in with the others in a circle pattern,
but not perfectly circle its more natural when you weave in and out
a little. A round the outside of the bouquet add Ivy to the bottom
so it cascades down in front, some green leaves will also be
beautiful all around if it seems more appealing. The ivy adds to the
wild look of the flower and a plus is this cascading effect is
slimming in front. After the flowers are placed in the foam piece
you will have a gorgeous, simple wildflower bouquet that is sure to
make people talk.
More Wildflower Wedding Bouquet Ideas
This style will work for any flower big and
small for example, another great flower to use would be Lilies just
a few big colorful lilies with babies breath and ivy really conveys
a feeling of wild beauty. Or for the more wild and energetic seeker
you can pick a hand full of all different wild flowers of all colors
and simply tie them together with some stunning ribbon that will
hang down, this style is easy but looks like it took hours or even
days to figure out and complete. The decision is ultimately up to
the bride whatever fits her most, whatever the choice may be
wildflowers are a guarantee hit at such an event.
