Tutorial: How to Make A Standing Flower Arrangement

Wedding Church Decor doesn't look luxurious without row of standing flower arrangement along the aisle, as if they lead the couple headed to the altar. Those flowers also spread fragrant around it. It’s such a nice fragrance that could bring sweet memories of those who are attending of their youth.


The standing flower arrangements were lining along the aisle seen from the balcony. Looks amazing ya!! (image top left) and when taken from the front door (image bottom right)

Wondering how to make a standing flower arrangement like the one above? Actually it’s quite easy but you have to do it neatly and thoroughly. This time we are going to implement the ‘American Style’ by using grouping technique (though not totally) which means that the flowers were placed in group, but not for the foliage. The leaves were still spreading (European characteristic). Since the theme was ‘all white’, only a little bit green then the flowers we chose  were mostly white such as Casablanca, roses of Avalance’, chrysant-salju, shamrock, white spray carnation, white pom-pom or Billy button flower, baby’s breath and the foliage was philodendron (in medium and small size), ruscus and leather leaf. So, wanna try???



This is how to make a standing flower arrangement step by step:
1.                  Prepare the iron flower stand, then put the wet floral foam (cut into half) on it. After that strengthen it by using wire or plastic rope.
2.                  Decide where you’ll put the tulle white ribbon. Use this as the front side of the flower arrangement, where you put the focus of the flower.
3.                  Then ready to arrange the flowers now. First place 3 stems of philodendron (size M) in the form of triangle. Then place the leather leaf between them so that it’ll look circle now. After that take 5 stems of small sized philo leaf then arrange them above around the top.
4.                  Take 9 stems of chrysant – salju, cut into 20 – 25 cm length each. Then place them by using grouping technique in 3 points so as to form a triangle. Each group contains of 3 stems.
Take 12 stems of roses. Do the same steps just like number 4, but put the other 3 stems of roses at the top.
 .


1.                 Up to this stage, this is what it looks from the above. The shape should be round, otherwise there must be wrong with the way you cut. You might not cut the stems in the same length or not place the flower into the same depth.
2.            Then take 9 stems of shamrock, white poms and spray carnation. Set them all to fill the empty spaces so that it looks full and dense. Do this by using grouping technique.
3.            If there is still empty space, fill it with ruscus leaf, cut the leaves a bit shorter than the flowers. Finally place the Casablanca at the front, then spread the baby’s breath around the flower arrangement.
4.                  Finish. This is how it looks when it was put at the aisle.

 Ok guys, have a nice try!!!
