diy dark bouquets

Watts, on October 22, 2019 at 8:40 PM Posted in Do It Yourself 0 3
Heya guys! My favorite color is black and it's a big color in the wedding. I'm obsessed with dark bouquets but OMG, the prices florists are giving. I'm making 5 small bouquets and 4 boutonniers. Attached are pics of inspiration. Has anyone tried to DIY something dark like this? If so, how did it turn out and what did it cost?

    Go look on Fifty Flowers. I'm doing my own arrangements and using them. Set up a consultation and send them photos of your inspo. They'll help you get the overall look that you want. You could more than likely do what you're wanting for a couple hundred dollars. I have 7 bouquets, my bouquet, 14 boutonnieres, 4 corsages, 22 table arrangements, 50 ft garland for head table, cake flowers, 2 wine barrel arrangements, and petals for flowers girls all for $1050. I attached a link to their black flower options. The customer service is fantastic and the consultant will give you a discount during your consultationSmiley smile I'm using the white flowers with the dark centers in my arrangements but they're navy centers. Idk if the lighting in the photos are making them look black or if they dyed them.

    Hey!! What beautiful inspiration bouquets!!

    Are you looking to source all of your flowers separately, or would you be interested in ordering them all from a DIY flower arranging company?

    Are you hoping to have fresh flowers?

    Dark arrangements shouldn't cost you too much more than any other color! That said, several of your bouquets do have anemones (white with black centers) which are a delicate flower - a little harder to handle/softer stem/easily damaged. Just make sure to read the handling instructions and take extra care with them compared to some of the hardier flowers.
