Thanks to Ten Thousand Only and A Cup of Jo, I stumbled upon a pot of gold. They posted about bridal bouquets made from supermarket flowers on the Real Simple site.
I’ve gotten flowers from the supermarket before just to put on the table because the look and smell nice, but nothing I’ve put together looks half as professional as these done by Real Simple. This just further confirms for me that, not only will I be making my own bouquet, but my girls will likely be making theirs.
I’m thinking the night before the wedding we get a wholebuncha flowers and all sit down and do them together. That way the less crafty of us won’t feel overwhelmed.
I’m trying this this weekend. Can’t wait.

Congratulations. Sounds like a perfect plan. If you find you need some extra guidance my sister and I are Flower Duet and we have just created a video that teaches you how to transform grocery store flowers into a centerpiece, bridal bouquet and a tall arrangement. Great for do-it-yourself brides! Take a peek. Good luck and have fun.
