Step 1
Purchase a pre-made bouquet holder with floral foam attached. You can find that at craft stores or through florist shops.
-
Step 2
Keep all the flowers you are working with in a vase of water so they don't dry out and wilt.
-
Step 3
Place the bouquet holder in a bowl of water. Leave it in the water until it sinks to the bottom of the bowl. Now the floral foam will be thoroughly saturated and ready to use.
-
Step 4
Remove the bouquet holder from the water and dry the plastic handle.
-
Step 5
Begin placing flowers at the top of the foam, cutting stems at a sharp angle. Place your largest flowers first, such as lilies and roses, and add "filler flowers" next.
-
Step 6
Wrap the handle of the bouquet holder in ribbon, to match the bride's wedding gown or the bridesmaid dresses.
-
Step 7
Store the bouquet in the refrigerator until the ceremony.
