Flowers play an integral part in any wedding rings ceremony. The use of them has developed beyond just mere decoration, and they are now as much a part of wedding rings traditions as anything else. In fact, can you even remember the last time that you went to a wedding rings at which there was not any flowers?
They are a symbol of new hope and a bright future. The bride feels her wedding rings to be akin to a fairy tale if the preparation and presentation of the flowers is done correctly.
So, what are the steps that need to be taken to ensure that flowers used at a wedding rings are perfect for the occasion?
1) The Selection Of The Flowers
In picking what flowers to choose, keep in mind the theme and the color premise of the wedding rings. The flowers should complement the other aspects of the wedding rings, not distract from them, and so a good idea is to match and blend the flowers with color and style of the brides dress. The types of flowers you choose are also important, so do not just focus on the color. Do a little research and find out what flowers are in season at the time of the wedding rings. By being knowledgeable about this, you can get the freshest looking flowers at the best possible price.
2) Preparing The Materials
The bouquet that the bride carries on the aisle is where the flowers play a major part. It is very easy to create your own. First, gather up your materials. You will need about three dozens of your chosen flower, a sharp scissor, florist tape, and ribbons.
3) Making Bouquets
There are various ways that you can put your flowers together to make a beautiful bouquet, but here we will look at just the most popular one. Start by choosing three flowers that you want to use as the centerpiece of your arrangement. Puff air into the center of each flower to give it a fuller look. Arrange these three flowers into the shape of a triangle, with each one being at a slightly different height to the other two. Continue adding up two to three flowers at a time until they form a dome. After which, you can tie them up with a florist tape at least 8 inches below the flowers. Be sure to ask for some help taping the stem; you might have a difficulty holding all 36 flowers and tying them together at the same time.
4) Add The Final Touches
Adding ribbons to the flowers and tape should be done to cover up any unsightly parts and to highlight the colors of the flowers. Carefully cut the excess stems with a sharp scissor approximately an inch below the ribbon. Place the bouquet on a plastic container or a vase with a quarter inch of water or you can store them inside a fridge covered by a loose plastic bag. Finally, spray the flowers with water avoiding the ribbons.
