Flower boa

For a bride who wants to make a statement and has a bit of daring, you could suggest creating a stunning boa. This way, she’ll also have her hands free throughout the day. This boa has a very special base: it incorporates two hundred 3D-printed blossoms. The arrangement is a combination of flowers and plants. Among others, orchids, succulents, Tillandsias, Cryptanthus on wire, Kalanchoe leaves, and parts of Guzmania plants have been used. Cut flowers have also been incorporated, such as Lisianthus, Cymbidium, and Gloriosa.

Lady-Round

This mysteriously colored bridal bouquet is arranged on a Smithers Oasis lady-round. The advantage of this is that the flowers don’t dry out. A spiderweb has been created from salmon-colored aluminum wire extending from the lady-round. The flowers can be secured to this frame. Personally, I find this color combination very beautiful: all those burgundy tones with brown and salmon. The arrangement includes Gloriosa, Cymbidium, carnivorous plants, ranunculus, Talinum ‘Long John’, various orchids, chrysanthemums, jasmine vines, and dried Chasmanthium grasses.

Craspedia heart

A Smithers Oasis bio-foam base was used for this ring pillow. The outer edge is finished with dried Craspedia flowers from Marginpar, strung on wire. These have a long shelf life because they are dried before being arranged. The interior is made with fresh flowers: Limonium cut into short pieces as a base, with ranunculus, Gloriosa, Clematis ‘Kibo’ (feathers), and mini Cymbidium arranged among them. The rings are secured in the center with two pieces of aluminum wire.

Pronounced

This bouquet takes its inspiration from a single striking Heliconia, held in place by an XL ring wrapped in wool. From this central element unfolds a selection of flowers, chosen for their distinctive shape, character, and texture. The emphasis is on individuality and expression: each flower is given the space to shine within the hanging arrangement. This creates a powerful, characterful interplay of lines where tension and balance meet.

The materials used include Gloriosa superba ‘Simba Fifty Shades’, Rosa ‘Princess Hitomi’, Clematis ‘Amazing Kansas’, Cymbidium, Hypericum, and lisianthus.

A delicate balance

This bouquet features a base structure made of unannealed wire (1.4 mm), combined with a natural handle: an elderberry stem. A light, airy layer of split and carefully wrapped Phormium leaves is tied around this base, creating a transparent and decorative structure.

On the exterior, a refined interplay of shapes and textures unfolds: Fritillaria persica, Nepenthes, Phalaenopsis, Cymbidium, and Anigozanthos are arranged across the open structure. This creates an exciting balance between the supporting structure and floral expression, with transparency and lightness taking center stage. The color combination ties all the elements together and enhances the harmony of the whole.

Natural form

This body decoration features an organic base of Aristolochia and trailing Muehlenbeckia, which gracefully drape along the body. From this natural structure unfolds a botanical composition featuring a selection of striking flowers: Gloriosa superba ‘Simba Fifty Shades’, Camellia, Vanda, Cymbidium, Phalaenopsis, Fritillaria persica, Nepenthes, and leaf begonia.

The flowers and vines intertwine in a fluid interplay, yet each retains its own space and character. This creates a rich, layered, and voluminous composition in which elegance and natural expression enhance one another, lending the arrangement an almost living dynamism.
