We are so excited about our recent feature on A Practical Wedding! They share their thoughts on DIY Flowers, the convenience of online shopping and the perks of pre-made flower packs!
“Back when I was planning my very low-budget wedding with very little help, the detail that intimidated me the most was the flowers. And when something intimidates me, I tend to procrastinate. So I procrastinated flowers so much that the only reason our vintage vases got filled with anything at all was because my one of my friends turned out to have spent a few summers working in the floral department of a grocery store, and when he found out the day before the wedding that we had, um, zero plans for flowers, he was off and running.”
“The resulting centerpieces were nothing short of a wedding miracle, but I always look a little longingly at other people’s wedding flowers (allow me to tell you in great detail about the succulents and anemone bridesmaid bouquet I once carried) and wonder what we could have done if I had, you know, planned ahead. And if I got that wedding flowers to do over, the first thing I would do is reach out to Blooms By The Box.”

Hello! I will be doing my daughter’s wedding flowers (wedding in September). I’m crafty and the thought of doing them is exciting, but a little overwhelming. We are having approximately 25-28 tables and will be making a 3×3 wooden box simply filled with baby’s breath. I am not sure how many bundles to get. And also, when preparing them, do we need to store them in a cold place before the wedding. That could be tricky cold storing 25-28 wood boxes of flowers. Any advice? Thank you and I look forward to ordering!
Hi Kathy! I am happy to help with this. For a 3×3 box, I would say 1 bunch can fill approx. 4-5 boxes. As for storing them, they just need to be in a cool, dry place they do not need to be refrigerated. Anywhere out of direct sunlight will be just fine! Baby’s breath is also pretty hardy so you should be fine 🙂 I hope this information was helpful!
