Teardrop shape

This bridal bouquet is shaped like a teardrop. The base is 3D-printed and consists of fern-shaped ribbons. The teardrop shape incorporates leaves from Tillandsia ‘Xerographica’ and individual leaves from freeze-dried roses. You can create this base several days before the wedding. Then, on the day itself, all you need to do is attach the fresh materials. Fresh materials used here include: Phalaenopsis ‘Golden River’, Hypericum, ranunculus, and flowers from the Ludisia orchid.

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.

“Getting into the nitty-gritty”

“Wedding floristry is one of my favorite subjects. You can really go all out with the details. Of course, you have to listen carefully to the bride. It’s actually quite difficult to sell bridal work effectively. When I had a shop, I always tried to sell more than just the bridal bouquet. You have to buy all the flowers and materials anyway, so if you can sell some additional related items on the side, that’s obviously a nice bonus.

Consider, for example, a ring pillow, which is a lovely addition to the overall bridal package. A bracelet or floral tiara for the bride, her mother or mother-in-law, or the bridesmaids are also great ideas.

"For various bridal bouquets, I use a base created with a 3D printer or a 3D pen. You can create many different shapes with these, and the filament used is available in just about any color. It takes a bit of experimentation, but I always see some great possibilities."

Elegant wrist bouquet

One of my favorite styles is a wrist bouquet, also known as a cuff bouquet. The cuff and the ginkgo leaves were created using a 3D printer. The bridal bouquet contains leaves of various sizes. Each leaf was individually wired, and these wires were fashioned into branches. These branches were wrapped around the tube and joined together. There are also branches made with wired and dried Craspedia balls. Fresh flowers used in the arrangement include chrysanthemums, Phalaenopsis, yellow Limonium, and Gloriosa.

Tropical Wedding

This bridal bouquet features a tropical, bold, and opulent style. Its exotic look combines rich textures and elegant lines. The floral arrangement highlights the orange Gloriosa, and the unique flowers add movement and sparkle. It also incorporates tropical leaves (Philodendron ‘Xanadu’), red bromeliads, Dianthus barbatus, and long French tulips. The long leaves of the Rhipsalis add an elegant line. The whole is brought together in the form of elongated leaves, carefully woven with Oasis Bindwire. This sculptural base emphasizes the contemporary and refined character of the bouquet.

Timelessly charming

This round bridal bouquet combines timeless charm with elegant contrasts. The Helleborus ‘Classic One’, in a very dark burgundy shade, is accentuated by the delicate contrast with the David Austin rose ‘Keira’. The arrangement also features Chrysanthemum ‘Santini Doria Pink’ and Dianthus ‘Ledge Pink’, which add refinement and floral harmony. Delicate grasses of Sanguisorba ‘Red Dream’ have also been subtly incorporated into the composition. All the flowers are brought together in a structured arrangement, finished with tricolor foliage. This foliage envelops and supports the bouquet, thereby enhancing its classic, compact, and distinctly romantic appearance.
