Get started making Calla Lilies wedding bouquet
- Firstly, you may need to make a bed of ferns and gypsophila blossoms. Here, you need to cut each stem roughly 6 inches long and do it around the bouquet holder to cover it completely. Make sure to wrap the cut end of all cut stems with floral tape. You also need to keep the overall length of each stem approximately 5” once in the bouquet form.
- Afterwards, you have to cut the stem off 12 Calla Lilies with natural stems. You will only need the flower and 3” of the stem left on. Then, store the stems that you have to cut off for later. Place the Calla Lilies throughout the bed of ferns on the bouquet holder.
- Make sure to cut 6 Calla Lily stems the following lengths: (1)14 inches long, (2) 12 inches long, (1) 10 inches long (2) 6 inches long. You can then put those stems into the bottom of the bouquet holder. By inserting with various lengths, you will have a cascade effect.
- For the next step, you should cut the miniature ivy garland into 14 inches lengths (84 inches in total). You also need to arrange 3 long stems of miniature English ivy on each side of the bouquet holder. Sure, they will cascade down around the Calla Lilies.
- After that, you have to take the Calla Lily natural stems pieces (left over from stem #2). Place throughout the bouquet after you bend them into half circles.
- Last, you have to spray the plastic handle on the bouquet holder with spray adhesive. Make sure to wait until it feels tacky. For the last step, you have to wrap the bouquet holder handle in satin ribbon (1-1/2 inches wide). Then, pin it with four pearl tip corsage pins.
That’s it! You successfully create the Calla Lily and Rose Wedding Bouquet. If you want to create it, make sure to follow the tutorial that we show above and do it step-by-step.
