So beautiful and once again, thank you Katherine. I learn so much from every video. Weddings, I would love to do, still a bit terrified but I will practice and you make it look achievable! This bouquet is so beautiful ❤❤❤
You are the best! Your big heart shines through-here you are showing us how to save a dollar (lots of them!!!) when you make your living as a floral designer. I also love how you are willing to mix a touch of faux when necessary and practical. As always, your outfit is impeccable on many levels. Aloha, Karin
Wow, Katherine! Two videos today! Thanks for the double treat. I love peonies and the idea of using the stems as greenery. What a coincidence! Only this morning, I dead- headed my peonies and decided to leave the greenery in the garden. The greenery is just so beautiful. The bouquet is another one of your gorgeous creations. ❤ Love everything you create.
Hi Katherine, So inspired by your videos. Wondering if you could tell me the care the bride would take with her bouquet after you deliver. should the bouquet be put into water when she's not using it? Also if you had to list your top 5 flowers for long lasting performace for bridal bouquets, what would you recommendd?
Long lasting flowers for bouquets : orchids, roses, Oriental lilies, ranunculus, peony, carnations. These flowers last well out of water. You do not need to put the bouquet in water unless there’s a long interval between photos and the ceremony. I would put the bouquet in a vase at the reception 😊❤️🌸
One question Katherine, with the ribbon going to the bottom of the bouquet, and putting it in a vase with water, the ribbon will get wet, won't that look bad for a bride? Do you leave a few inches at the bottom without ribbon when doing a bridal bouquet?
Yes you can have some natural stems with only a couple of inches of water. I don’t fill up the vase, just a few inches of water and I will dry off the bouquet once we get to the venue. The polyester material of the ribbon dries very quickly. That’s why I double up on the ribbon going down then up so even wet, the stems don’t show through if wrapped with white stem tape. That is why I prefer stem tape over bind wire for wrapping the stems.💕🌸
hah hah,,, if someone charges you $300. for that... you are in the wrong neighborhood! I was a Florist for 25 years in many diverse clienteles' nowhere did they do that. But good for you that you are showin people how to make their own bouquets.

Is there water in the vase wgen you deliver it?
Yes
So it doesn't matter that the ribbon gets wet?
Gorgeous. Are the prices included for all items, hard to believe it was $35 in materials.
The flowers are only $35. Add a few cents for floral tape and pins and maybe $1-$2 for the ribbon. ❤️🌸
My daughter's middle name is Mudan, chinese for peony, and would like a peony bridal bouquet someday
Now you can make it for her💕🌸
