Amazing well done
do you use quick dip sometimes... i wish i could show you my 1st bouquet ever... bride .. 2 brides maid... boutonnieres... and 50 mudvase... was beautiful... not perfect but all because of your amazing tutorials and sense of humour on these little comments on top of the screen... i could make that beautiful wedding for my friends ❤
We're so glad you found us! Weddings can be stressful times, so we try to inject a little humor to keep it light. Having fun with flowers is always the goal! It's wonderful that you got to be a part of your friends wedding in such a special way and we're sure that it was beautiful!
We find that fresh water works best for hydrating flowers and since we cater to mostly diy brides, we don't normally use quick dip. However, we know that a lot of professional florists use it with great success!
"...can look like two nipples."🤣🤣🤣 I love your commentary. But seriously, absolutely love your videos and you're hyping me up to DIY my wedding. I'm learning so much from you! Thank you. I have a 10am Sunday ceremony, what would be the best day to have flowers delivered by your company?
Thank you for your kind words! I'm glad you don't get offended by our off-beat humor!
You'll want to have your flowers delivered on Thursday for a Sunday wedding. Also, see if your venue will let you set up on Saturday, or at least stick the flowers in a cool, unused room. XOXOX
@@FlowerMoxie Thanks!
I love that you're using carnations I think they are so beautiful they smell wonderful they are just one of my favorite people don't like them I don't understand why I think they're a beautiful flower I just believe evidently they don't have any taste❤
We love carnations too! One of our faves and tough as a goat!
What other greenery is a good filter greenery like you talk about leather leave. You talk about how it gives you a lot of coverage for your $$. What other greenery is like that? Thanks
There's a lot that would work! Salal, Pittosporum, Cocculus, Huck, Myrtle, Nagi, Nandina, Agonis to name a few. =)
Lovely!! New subscriber here..❤❤❤🥰🥰🌺🌷👍🏼🙏
Yay! We're happy to have you!
It would be so nice if you listed how many flowers of each you used!
You're so right, I've been getting better about that! Here's what I used:
1 bunch of Leather Leaf
1/2 bunch of Baby Euc
1/2 bunch of Silver Dollar Euc
8-10 Burgundy Carnations
8-10 Freedom Red Roses
7-10 Pink X-Pression Roses
lemon leaf i didn’t see listed but you mentioned that after the leather leaf
To bloom roses, what can be an ideal temperature? Is a room temperature like 70 is ok? I love your tutorials. So practical! Thanks for all your sharings!
Room temp and a few days work best! But if you need them to open quickly then I suggest blowing into the heads with the blow dryer on a cool setting. I do a few seconds per rose and the air blows the petals open without damaging them! I'm so glad this tutorial was helpful to you! XO
@@FlowerMoxie You are the best. Really appreciate the very useful tip. I will try it. Thanks!
Absolutely Beautiful! I see that the carns were pushed deeper into the arrangement. How do you determine which flowers will be longer and which will be placed deeper down in the arrangement?
I sink some flowers to create dimension in my arrangement, and often it's the less expensive flower like a carnation or cushion flower. However, sometimes I do it based on color. For instance, if the predominant color is burgundy then I would sink in the dusty blush roses while making the burgundy carnations more prominent. Does that help???
Thank you for your kind comment and question!
@@FlowerMoxie Thank you, yes that is helpful. 😀
Thank you! I’ve been wasting flowers filling the backs
Yup! I only green it out unless it needs to be a 360 arrangement. It not only saves money, but it allows you to put more flowers upfront!
LMAO so want to work with you
Can you give us recipes for this work? So we know how many roses and greenary you used
Hello Tammy, I used about:
- 1 bunch of Leather Leaf
- 1/2 bunch of Salal
- 1/4 bunch of Silver Dollar Euc
- 13 Roses
- 8-10 Carnations
You can see a lot of other recipes on our Large Packages! flowermoxie.com/pages/moodboard-packages
@@FlowerMoxie I really want to do this for my centerpiece. You think I would need 10-15 more for the other side?.
@@tammynguyen5765 For 360 you could do 1 Leather Leaf, 1/2 Salal, 1/2 another green, 12 roses, 12 carns
@@tammynguyen5765 Also, we offer Custom Designs and a florist can walk you through it, build a specific recipe, and a cart. It's $35 and tots worth it because you're talking to a professional.

How far in advance can you put the arrangements out at the ceremony site? The morning of? Or closer to the ceremony out of the sun?
Hi Lisa, it depends on how hot it is out there and what flowers you're using! I would say if it's over 85 then you may want to set them out a bit more closure to the ceremony or put them in the shade so the sun isn't beating down.
Roses, poms, carnations, and greenery are hardy and will hold up. More delicate things like delphinium, stock, hydrangea could struggle.
Just make sure you have a lot of water in your urn!
I wish I had stumbled upon your channel when I had my wedding! You mentioned that you let the roses blow out for 3-4 days. Would you recommend receiving flowers that far in advance? So process day 1, allow roses to open up days 2-3, design on day 3 (day before event)?
Hello Samantha! We recommend a Wednesday delivery for a Saturday wedding. The first day is prep and hydration, and you can design Thurs and Friday, but I really like to wait to use the roses on Friday, so maybe I green out on Wed or Thurs.
Let us know if you have any more questions and feel free to check out our site for more learning! XO
I have 2 questions, 1- how would you design the ceremony centrepiece like the video and use it as a centrepiece for the headtable, would it be the same design? 2- how do you keep your flowers fresh from home if you don't have the commercial cooler to keep the flowers fresh
Hi Flower Moxie!!
We are planning lots of flowers at our wedding (between 22-23 wide and tall centerpieces / 10-12 aisle bouquets / Floral big urns (3x) / Flowers hanging with floral cage on door, etc...
Of course we would like to get a little early, the wedding being on a Saturday. Do you think starting a few floral foam bouquets on Wednesday is realistic? Even with a finishing spray? The flowers will be good?
Or do we must start on Thursday? They won't be placed in the fridge because of course we won't have as much room for that amount of flowers.
Thanks for any advice you can give! ☀☀😍
The flowers you're planning on making sound beautiful! We would recommend greening out your large arrangements on Wednesday. Greenery doesn't need as much hydration as flowers do, so to green out everything on Wednesday evening or afternoon will definitely let you get ahead of the game! Continue to check on the hydration of your cages/urns continuously and make sure that they are staying wet and continuing to provide hydration for any blooms, continuing to check even on the morning of the wedding. You don't have to place your flowers in a cooler or fridge, simply keep them in a cool dark area of your home, away from bright sunny windows and heating vents and everything will be totally fine!
@@FlowerMoxie thank you so much for your answer!! Love the idea 💡 I will do that 😊😍
If you make these the day before and have water in the vessel, do you just dump the water out to transfer and then refill it once you get to the venue? Is it sturdy enough to just tip the vessel to empty the water?
Absolutely! I don't dump it all out, but I definitely tip them and get most of it out. Yes, it's sturdy enough especially if you have your foam taped in....I gently support the flowers as I tip the water out. XOXO
What is the name of the second type of greenery you used?
It's Salal also called Lemon Leaf greenery. 💗
Noticed you use clippers instead of a knife. Any reason why?
Hello Janice, a few thoughts on this, and great question, btw!
- Safety: I'm not a fan of floral knives for safety purposes, and because I cater to DIY couples and new florists I feel it'd be irresponsible to have them bust out a knife during a wedding week. Most florists I know who use knives have a permanent thumb scar and it takes a lot of practice and training to use them correctly. When you're working a wedding, you're pulling your snips in and out of your pocket on the go, so the knife could easily cause some damage.
- Cleaner Cut: I can freely admit that it's a cleaner cut to use a sharp floral knife and will not pinch the stem the way snips can. Floral knives are sharp as all get out and must be to do the job correctly.
- Event Florals: There's a different approach with event florals vs a special occasion arrangement. For special occasions, a florist's goal is to make that bouquet last as long as possible so they will typically arrange it with 'green' flowers so they will continue to open, cut stems with a knife underwater, etc. However, for event florals, the goal is not to make them last for a week, but for the flowers to look their very best on the wedding day. Flowers look the best a few days before they expire so a wedding florist is always trying to get her flowers to blow and open. For that reason, the extra steps and techniques are not necessary, in my opinion.
🙋🏻♀️🙋🏻♀️🙋🏻♀️🙋🏻♀️🙋🏻♀️🙋🏻♀️🙋🏻♀️Any ideas for replacing the ferns for eucalyptus? My first time building an urn . I AM using sage green . Can I use foundation with something that matches ??? Maybe willow ?
You can absolutely use eucalyptus in place of the ferns in this design! Silver Dollar Eucalyptus is a great variety to use because it can hide a lot of your mechanics. If you'd like a little more movement, opt for Gunni Eucalyptus instead!
May I ask where you got your turntable from?
That's a ten dollar Ikea special! XO
Can you share where these urns come from? Thanks!!
We sell them! diyflowersupply.com/
Hi is the urn made out of plastic or hard glass?
It's plastic! We sell them on our supplies site: flowermoxiesupply.com/collections/ceremony/products/white-classic-designer-resin-urn?variant=40196867391667
Hi Amy! I think I've watched this video about a dozen times already! I will be making something similar for my daughter's wedding next year, but it will be in a lobby area and visible from all sides. How do I adjust what I need to order to accommodate for that? Any special techniques for greening out something like this and the parameters I should be setting? Or do you have another video that discusses all this? THANKS from MOB (Mother of Bride!)
Hey there! For an arrangement that's going to be seen from all sides, think about break the arrangement up into quadrants and working diagonally across the top of the arrangement. Create your shape with your greenery and then begin adding your blooms, same way as we show in the video but work in those smaller quadrants all around so you're achieving the all around look. Also check out our Tall Centerpiece tutorial for some extra guidance!
@@FlowerMoxie How would I adjust my flower order to accommodate for this type of arrangement viewed from all sides?
This might be a project best handled by a professional florist. I don’t see this ending well for you or your daughter.
@@ramonaerpelding6118 the piece was amazing and was a total show-stopper on their welcome table surrounded by glasses of champagne! I was proud of myself and my daughter LOVED it!
@@carriew29 Sure, Jan.
Where do I order the urns. And can I get the gold ones?
They've been SO HARD to get since the pandemic. Looks like I still have the copper and white ones available, so you could always spray paint them to be the color you want.
diyflowersupply.com/collections/vases
Of course the pandemic. Okay Thankyou
@@nailpolish1493 Done ruined everything
Can I have the ingredients of the arrangement?
For this arrangement we used 1/2 bu Leatherleaf fern, 1/4 bu Silver dollar eucalyptus, 1/4 bu Baby Eucalyptus, 9 Red Freedom Roses, 7 Burgundy Carnations and 6 Pink Xpression Garden Roses!
What is the recipe or stem count you used?
This is a good approximate recipe for an urn of this size! 13 Freedom roses, 13 pink roses, 13 burgundy carnations, 1 bunch leatherleaf fern, 1/2 bunch salal, 1 buch baby eucalyptus per cage or urn
The background music is very annoying...the design is great 👍
We're sorry you found the music distracting but are glad you loved the design and hopefully found the tutorial helpful! Thank you for the feedback!
Great idea on the arrangement, but girl the background music was annoying!
thank you for the feedback!
How does that transport? As a diy gal I would have to assemble at home.
Do you have a video on transport to the ceremony or reception site?
We do have a simple video on transportation, but I need to make a better one. For these beasts, I typically tip out the water, put a spacer of some sort behind it and buckle it in my seat. But you have to pull the belt out all the way first so it will stay locked.
Transporting is the worst thing about floristry.
@@FlowerMoxie Would you suggest renting a transport van?
@@sexidork2001 It really depends on how much you are building and how far you have to drive. I tend to be cheap and only rent a van if it's a big event. Do you have an SUV that could do it in a few trips?
