Wedding Flowers

To help save some major $$ on the wedding, my cousin and I decided to make her flowers. She got all most everything needed to make the flowers on sale at Hobby Lobby. It took lots of flowers, ribbon, glue dots, and patience to make them. But it was a lot of fun and I'm glad she trusted my enough to let me do them. I think they turned out great, even better than I had imagined.

Here's the bouquet we based her bridal bouquet off of:
















Here's Her bouquet:

She wanted daisies for the bridesmaids. The centers of the flowers were not the prettiest so she found some "gems" online and we glued them in the center of the flowers. We used the same ribbon and pattern on all the flowers to make them match and to add in more of her wedding colors.

She wanted her toss bouquet to be a little different but to still have her wedding colors. So we had a little fun with these and threw in some colorful flowers instead of just white like the other bouquets.

These are the boutonnieres and corsages.  The one on the left is for the men in the wedding and the male family members. The one on the right is for the female family members.

These are all the flowers we did:

This was a fun project, I really enjoyed it. I love the way they all turned out and I think she truly saved a lot of money doing them this way.
