Had a first go at making a bouquet!

The ribbon will be navy blue with the lace tape ? (I could only get red today!)

Look good. Are they real flowers? Just thinking the roses will open up more if you make them a few days before your wedding.

Gorgeous - think the children's flowers may need something a little extra though - could you put a small bit of gypsophila in them too? x

Yes I think 2 days before will give them time to open out really nicely ? I've got 11 months to go, so plenty of trial and errors to do!

Yes I was thinking that too, I thought about putting some white Daisy's in there? Gypsophilia would be lovely too ?

Are they freesias in yours? will be nice open

They are really pretty, but I'm more impressed with how good they look, and your patience.

I think they're freesias (that's the wrong spelling, isn't it!) I'm not sure to be honest, I just picked up pale flowers in Asda ?

Thank you, it was surprisingly easy after watching a few tutorials!

I'm hopefully growing my own flowers. I did a lot of research online and I read in a few places it might be best to get a professional to do the actual arranging. There is a village florist across the road, and I talked to them about the idea (I.e could they put together a bouquet for me if I provided flowers, would happily pay them for their time etc) they seemed really put out. So I decided I would try to teach myself and do my own!! Especially as I don't really want very fancy arrangements in the first place. So I'm using online tutorials as well the best one I found so far is a channel called Astar's Place. I should have loads of daffs blooming in March and I can't wait to practise. I think yours look great and seeing this post has given me confidence too

That sounds amazing Daffodil! I'm hoping my wild flowers will still be out next October so I can put a few in ?

I was surprised at how easy it was!
