Love the idea to have a mirror in front of you! Thank you for the real education. So many content creators these days say they’re going to teach you something, but either don’t have the skills to be able to teach you at the level you need or they gatekeep the actual content that you need to learn. So thank you for giving us real and useful information
I am just getting ready this morning to make a bouquet for my friend's daughter in a loose garden style - and your video was perfect to give me the confidence I need to work on this project! Please keep making your videos! You are an excellent instructor and I will watch ALL of your videos!
Good morning Carrie. Best wishes on a beautiful bouquet! If you're on Instagram, please take a photo of the finished bouquet and tag @passifloragirl. I'd love to see your creations!
@@PassifloraStudio I certainly will! And I already follow you on Instagram, but I didn't realize you were on TH-cam as well. Just saw that your studio is in Ohio...I am south of Pittsburgh!
This VIDEO was made in 2018?.. I just came across it. ENJOYED it and it's now 2024,.. 😅Anyhow, I truly appreciated the TIPS that you Shared. Many of us DIY People who Love Designing FLOWERS never get enough. This has encouraged me to press on and do my best. I will be doing Bouquets, and arranging my SWEET NEIECE'S BRIDAL BOUQUET in 2025! Thank you for Sharing. I especially love the SPIRAL TECHNIQUE and this truly helped me to Up my game, get better, and better, just what im Looking for, Love it. ❤
I have posted this to my daughter as her wedding will be in Cornwall in August and I have used your past videos to make my daughter in law's bouquet. You are so eloquent and give confidence . Thank you .
I would love to see a video of using faux flowers! I’m having a wedding and was hoping to do my flowers the day before, not sure if real flowers can survive through the night.
Yes they survive. In fact most places would ship your flowers 3 days in advance and you must have them in a cool environment in water. I did mine own the night before, wouldn’t recommend it unless you have committed people that will help you.
Hey, I found this soooo helpful.. However I think spilling out the flowers prices would be even so much helpful as I can calculate the budget. 😊 Thanks in advance. 🙏🏻
Hello Lizzette, yes, we always make the bouquet the day before. Keep in a cool, dark spot (away from direct sunlight), and keep that water fresh, and you'll be good! xx
I plan to do the flowers for my daughters wedding this June💕 I would like to know what kind of snips I should buy. I am going to do the garden style. Thank you so much, you are such a blessing.
Hi! Why did you make a vertical cut down the base of the tulip stem? What did you do to prep the tulips before making the bouquet? I'm planning on making a wedding bouquet for my sister and using white clearwater tulips, any advice? 😊
Hi Allison! Tulips are one of the few flowers that continue growing after they're cut, so, when they are arranged often times they will be drooping and then they next day they are standing upright, which changes your design. Making the cut slows the flow of nutrients/sap to the blossom which causes the flower to be less likely to stand upright. Best wishes on your sister's bouquet!! xx
Your tutorial videos are amazing. So helpful and I love how much detail you go into. I am hoping to make my own wedding bouquets for my February wedding. How many days before would you recommend doing this? To have the flowers still fresh :) thank you!
hello..when we can see your new upload videos again..im your new subscribers..i love your bouquet styles it looks so elegant..all your bouquet are amazingly elegant..😁
Love your content! I'm getting married next year, and am using youtube to learn how to make my own bouquets. Do you have any tips for maintaining the integrity of the flower until the ceremony, i.e. keep them in a certain temp water, dip in alum, use flower food, etc.? Thank you!
That's great! Congratulations on your engagement, and, for teaching yourself flower skills! We just keep a nice fresh cut on the bouquet stems, and keep changing out the water with fresh water (we don't use food here, only when processing). Keep the flowers in a cool, dark spot, with fresh water and you should be fine! Finishing Touch is also a nice product to spray on the bouquet to keep it fresh. Best of luck Megan! xx
For this bouquet I spent $50 on flowers. You will notice that I discuss flower types when picking out the florals in the video, and you will need floral tape, snips, and ribbon! Best wishes!

Nice honest work. I wondered if you even tried the calla lillies
Thank you! Really helpful to watch you "edit" too.
Glad you enjoyed it Emma...thanks for watching!
Your work is beautiful, God bless your creative hands 🌸
Aww, thank you so much!
Thanks so sharing.. lovely bouquet! I'm a budding florist and I find these grocery store flowers very helpful!
So happy you enjoyed it Nikki! Best wishes with your budding passion!
Your bouquets are beautiful. I look forward to your videos!
Thank you!
I enjoy and learn a lot from this video
Thanks for watching, and happy that you enjoyed it!
Really nice bouquet and thanks for sharing 💫
Thanks for watching!

Thank you so much! Can't give away ALL my secrets. ;-) Check with your local wholesaler on pricing.
Hi Wiranti! The total for florals was approx. $55. :)
This is so helpful. Thank you
Glad you enjoyed!
Bellissimo, posso sapere come si chiama il ramo che sembrano farfalle bianche? Grazie
Gorgeous 💐
Thanks much!
I really love your content:) sending love from Singapore
Thank you so much!!
Would you suggest making the bouquet the day before or day of? Would they stay fresh
Hello Lizzette, yes, we always make the bouquet the day before. Keep in a cool, dark spot (away from direct sunlight), and keep that water fresh, and you'll be good! xx
@@PassifloraStudiowould you take the ribbon off? And do ribbon on the day of the wedding?
@@emmamacmahon6388 doing the ribbon day of is ideal, yes!
Beautiful!!
Thank you so much!
I would put the tulips but maybe only one side and a bit at the centre, not all over the bouquet. Anyway it still looks nice without the tulips.
Thanks Ann...appreciate your insights!
Just came across you channel it's from a year ago wondering if you have any other videos I Love Them! Thank you for all your info
thank you! I'll be posting more videos within the month. Thanks for watching Jessica!
Well done!
Thank you so much!
I plan to do the flowers for my daughters wedding this June💕 I would like to know what kind of snips I should buy. I am going to do the garden style. Thank you so much, you are such a blessing.
Aw, that's so exciting! And thank you for your sweet, kind words. I like the Corona AG 4930SS. They're about $15/each and I use them for everything!
Thank you. and one more question, did you use the oasis waterproof tape in this video? Should I buy the 1/4” or the 1/2”?
@@Angelierrn when I use the waterproof tape for bouquets, I would use the 1/2". But normally I just use rubberbands. :)
Love watching your videos! What brand of snippers did you use?
Thanks Janely! Not sure what brand those snips are, I picked them up at a workshop. Normally I use corona snips.
I love you videos! I am also curious why you cut the stem of the tulips just under the bloom?
Thank you! It keeps them from stretching. :)
Your work is beautiful! Unrelated question: Where is that gorgeous ring from?!
Thank you so much! An artist in Marietta, OH named Steve Combs. He used an old button of my grandmothers to make it. :)
How super sweet! I love it even more now. 🥰

Very pretty. Are grocery flowers substandard from flora flowers or they just don't have the varied you get in a flora shop? Same quality?
Hi! Thank you! It depends. I think theyre typically nicer when purchased from the wholesaler.
How far in advance can I make the arrangement? Is it ok to do the day before the wedding or even 2 days?
I usually make it the day before. :)
Your tutorial videos are amazing. So helpful and I love how much detail you go into. I am hoping to make my own wedding bouquets for my February wedding. How many days before would you recommend doing this? To have the flowers still fresh :) thank you!
Thank you so much! I always like to do the bouquets the day before, if possible. Best wishes! xx
Do you have a tutorial video on the floral arrangement on the mantle board behind you? It’s gorgeous!!
Ooooh, great recommendation!
Thank you!
hello..when we can see your new upload videos again..im your new subscribers..i love your bouquet styles it looks so elegant..all your bouquet are amazingly elegant..😁
im a new florist also ..
Hello John! Thank you so much for your kind words. Very soon I'll be adding new content! Thanks for being a faithful subscriber!
How soon in advance do you recommend practicing making bouquets before a wedding?
Hello! I typically make them the day before the wedding.
the colors and texture are really nice!
just curious but around 3:09, why did you use a box cutter to cut a line near the head of the tulip?
Thank you! It keeps the tulips from stretching!
Fab
Thank you!
Can you please mention how much cost you to buy the flowers?
I believe I spent $60 total.
How much were the flowers? Total.
Hi Maria~great question! Think the total was around $55.
Love your content! I'm getting married next year, and am using youtube to learn how to make my own bouquets. Do you have any tips for maintaining the integrity of the flower until the ceremony, i.e. keep them in a certain temp water, dip in alum, use flower food, etc.? Thank you!

We just keep a nice fresh cut on the bouquet stems, and keep changing out the water with fresh water (we don't use food here, only when processing). Keep the flowers in a cool, dark spot, with fresh water and you should be fine! Finishing Touch is also a nice product to spray on the bouquet to keep it fresh.

How much will you spend on flowers and it will be helpful if you put a list of flower types and materials if possible?
For this bouquet I spent $50 on flowers. You will notice that I discuss flower types when picking out the florals in the video, and you will need floral tape, snips, and ribbon! Best wishes!
