Cascading Wedding Bouquets have been used for many
years. The following instructions will show step by step
inserting roses and lily's, but remember you can use these instructions
and apply with other flowers.
Supplies:
Large Angled Wedding Holder
5 - Long stems English Ivy
14 - White Roses
3 - Stems White Lilly's
Start by soaking your Wedding Holder in
water. Place in large vase with stuffing (paper towels) to hold
bouquet in place while working.
I have cut two of the ivy stems to make
pieces to insert into the top and sides of this bouquet. Longer
stems are used at the bottom.
Take roses and cut to size. Then
insert in S shape into the bouquet holder. We have left sections to
add lily stems.
Next step is to wire three of the
roses. After wiring, you will then add ivy to each stem and wire
together like a corsage.
This shows after wiring like
corsage. Each flower is at different lengths as this is how you will
create the cascading effect with flowers.
Each of these photos can be enlarged by clicking on the
picture and you will need to click on this picture to tell what we are
doing here. The bridle holder has two openings. You will take
the end of your stair stepped roses from above and thread through the
front of the holder. Bring tapped wire down and twist wires
together.
We have cut the lily stems to length
and placed the lily's in between the roses and filled small ivy in any
holes that may not be covered by your flowers. We also have added
ivy to the back of this arrangement to cover the mechanics.
