wedding flower decoration
This wedding flower decoration would be an excellent choice as matching vases on either side of the altar. The tall flowers help create the illusion of height, needed in most tall church ceilings.
To create ONE vase, you'll need the following hard goods, florist supplies and fresh flowers:
- 1 Trumpet Altar Vase
- 1/2 Brick Oasis Florist Foam
- 4 Pink Gerbera Daisies
- 2 Purple Monkshood
- 3 Purple Gladiolus
- 4 Pink Snapdragons
- 4 Purple Larkspur
- 2 Hot Pink Carnations
- 2 Pink Carnations
- 1 Trachelium
- 2 Cottage Pink Yarrow
- 5 strands sprengeri
- 2 Myrtle Stems
- Crystal Clear Flower Food
- Floralock Stem Adhesive
- Finishing Touch or Crowning Glory
Always start by processing your wholesale wedding flowers correctly. This means your flowers will stay fresh up and through your wedding day. You don't have the advantage that a florist does with a huge walk in cooler. Don't worry - flowers fresh from the farm will last 5 - 7 days IF they are treated and cut the right way, fed with a professional florist food and misted with a flower sealant to keep those petals moist. Now is no time to put your faith in "home remedies".
Float soak your foam and then secure into the vase with water proof tape. Green first then fill in with your flowers. Secure the stems with Florack Stem Adhesive and then mist well with Finishing Touch or Crowning Glory. Store in cool, air conditioned area in the dark.
