Colonial Bouquet is a round bouquet of flowers, no noticeable extension of flowers or foliage coming out of bouquet.  These are somewhat larger than the English nosegay bouquets.

You will find this bouquet to be one of the easiest to make.

 

 

 


Supplies:
Large Wedding Holder (Straight stem)
24 - White Roses
1 - Group Galax Leaves
4 - Yards  #9 Wired Ribbon 
4 - Yards #5 White Double Satin Ribbon
  

Start your bouquet by soaking wedding holder in water.  Cut stems from roses and line around handle as in picture.  You might want to tape the handle in order to disguise handle easier.
  

Next, wire the stems onto the handle at the top and middle.  Make this very tight.  Some florists will use glue to ensure that the stem do not move.
 
French braid the handle to cover wire.

Set your bouquet holder into a tall vase and begin adding roses, starting in the middle.  You will want to use floral glue as you insert each rose.  
  

Keep roses at one height.  You will want a round look when finished.
  

Add galax leaves in a circle around the roses.  Make three bows in your #9 ribbon and three bows in the #5.  Insert these into the holder under leaves in a complete circle.
  
Your finished.  These bouquets will also work as centerpieces at the reception.  Be sure to take extra clear vases.  Also, make sure the stems fit in vases allowing bouquet to set on rim of vase.
