Hi everyone!

I will be making mine and my bridesmaids bouquets from artificial flowers. I went and bought a bunch of different kinds of flowers from Hobby Lobby along with some greenery.

Any tips on how to arrange them or get them to stay together best? Is floral tape the way to go?

I have plenty of time to play around to get it right because my wedding isn't until October 2020.

Thanks in advance!

Hi! I made the bouquets for myself and the bridal bridesmaids. I roughly arranged it without any materials to get a feel of it and once I was ready I used floral tape. They have them at the dollar store and found that one roll was more than enough for 11 bouquets and 11 boutonnières. The floral tape is easy to work with, just sticky and you have to hold the stems tight as you wrap.

I was still able to restyle the flowers once wrapped since the stems are bendy. And I added ribbon on top of the floral tape used a glue gun to secure it. Attached are the flowers!
