At first I was daunted by how difficult it would be to put together a classy cascading bouquet, but it was actually not too bad! I've also made the boutonnieres and corsages for the wedding party and parents. My wedding isnt until June but now I've checked a big item off my list. Picture shows my final execution vs. the concepts I had at the store. Anyone else going the fake flower DIY route?

    I ended up taping all the main stems together, but some of the extra bits are wired in

    Your bouquet looks great! My FMIL is crafty and going to make my fake flower bouquet. How long did it take to make yours and how’d you do it?

    It probably took about an hour and a half start to finish! I started with the main bouquet (roses), then added in the draping bits and extra greenery with wire. There's some YouTube videos that can help but I mostly made it up as I went along.
