Our blog has a wonderful variety of color palettes and styles from our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bloomsbythebox.com\/pub\/diy-wedding-flower-inspiration-photo-gallery.cfm\" rel=\"noopener\">real brides<\/a> which will help you envision what your dream bouquets, boutonnieres, and centerpieces might look like. Gather some photos of color palettes you love and any specific flowers you know you want to include. It is also helpful to come up with a budget for flowers if you haven\u2019t already done so. The best time to start is about 3 months out which gives you plenty of time to research, plan, and purchase your flowers.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: left;\">Step 2<\/h2>\n<p>Next, you\u2019ll want to figure out exactly what you\u2019ll be doing yourself. Some choose to do everything while others delegate certain tasks to a florist and decide to do only part of it themselves. It is helpful to make a list of exactly what you\u2019ll need. For example; 1 bridal bouquet, 5 bridesmaid bouquets, 6 boutonnieres, 10 medium size centerpieces, etc. You\u2019ll also want to include any extra d\u00e9cor, like 2 small arrangements for the bar, 2 corsages for mother of the bride\/groom, and greenery to decorate an arbor or welcome sign.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_18359\" style=\"width: 210px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-18359\" class=\"wp-image-18359 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bloomsbythebox.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/welcomesign-200x300.jpg\" alt=\"Jena + James sign with green ferns as trim\" width=\"200\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.bloomsbythebox.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/welcomesign-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.bloomsbythebox.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/welcomesign-100x150.jpg 100w, https:\/\/www.bloomsbythebox.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/welcomesign-768x1152.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.bloomsbythebox.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/welcomesign-683x1024.jpg 683w, https:\/\/www.bloomsbythebox.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/welcomesign.jpg 800w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 200px) 100vw, 200px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-18359\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photography by: Alivia Latimer<\/p><\/div>\n<h2>Step 3<\/h2>\n<p>Once you have a list of everything you need florals for, send us an email at <a href=\"mailto:service@bloomsbythebox.com\">service@bloomsbythebox.com<\/a>. Be sure to include all inspiration photos, your running list of floral needs, and your budget. One of our wedding experts will help you identify all of the flowers, greens, and supplies you need, and recommend quantities that will fit your vision and your budget!<\/p>\n<h2>Step 4<\/h2>\n<p>Once you and one of our blooms experts finalize your florals and supplies needs, you\u2019ll want to place your order. You can do this as far as 60 days out, however, we typically recommend placing it about 2-3 weeks before the wedding. That gives you the most reliable, current \u201cin season\u201d availability. Your blooms expert will recommend choosing a delivery date that is 2 days prior to your wedding. For example, if your wedding is on a Saturday, we recommend having your flowers delivered to you on Thursday, rehydrating overnight, and arranging Friday afternoon.<\/p>\n<h2>Step 5<\/h2>\n<p>Now it\u2019s time to gather your DIY team! We recommend arranging the day before the wedding, so make sure everyone who is planning to help is available! During this time between placing and receiving your order, we recommend browsing through our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bloomsbythebox.com\/pub\/floral-design-videos.cfm\" rel=\"noopener\">DIY Flower tutorials<\/a> if you are a beginner to get an idea of what it will take DIY.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_18360\" style=\"width: 310px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/bethjoyphotos.com\/\" rel=\"noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-18360\" class=\"wp-image-18360 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bloomsbythebox.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/bridesmaids-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"Bride and bridesmaids in pastel dresses with bouquets over thier faces\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.bloomsbythebox.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/bridesmaids-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.bloomsbythebox.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/bridesmaids-150x100.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.bloomsbythebox.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/bridesmaids-768x513.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.bloomsbythebox.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/bridesmaids-1024x684.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.bloomsbythebox.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/bridesmaids-1080x721.jpg 1080w, https:\/\/www.bloomsbythebox.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/bridesmaids.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-18360\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photograph by: Beth Joy Photography<\/p><\/div>\n<h2>Step 6<\/h2>\n<p>The day before you receive the flowers, we will send you tracking information. Your flowers will be shipped via FedEx, and it is helpful to sign up for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fedex.com\/apps\/fdmenrollment\/\" rel=\"noopener\">FedEx notifications<\/a> if you haven\u2019t already. These notifications can give you a better idea of exactly when you can expect your package.<\/p>\n<h2>Step 7<\/h2>\n<p>The next step will be to receive your flowers, YAY! We ship all of our fresh-cut flowers via next day air so they will arrive to you a little sleepy but have no fear, they will perk up! Once you get your package, you\u2019ll want to open up the box immediately and get all the flowers into the water. Give each stem a fresh cut, its best to use <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bloomsbythebox.com\/flower-preparation\/floral-scissors_688\/\" rel=\"noopener\">floral scissors<\/a> or a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bloomsbythebox.com\/flower-preparation\/swiss-army-folding-floral-knife_728\/\" rel=\"noopener\">floral knife<\/a> to do this, however, any sharp, clean scissors will do! You will also want to remove any foliage on the stem with the exception of about 2 inches from the bloom itself. <\/p>\n<p>Then, place the freshly cut flowers into buckets of water. The flowers will require room temperature water so if you\u2019re trying to be super prepared, the morning you are set to receive your flowers, you can fill up some buckets and get them ready. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bloomsbythebox.com\/pub\/prepare-care-for-fresh-cut-flowers.cfm\" rel=\"noopener\">Read our guide on how to care for your fresh cut flowers<\/a> .<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-18362 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bloomsbythebox.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/box-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"Blooms by the box DIY Wedding Flower Game Plan box of flowers\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.bloomsbythebox.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/box-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.bloomsbythebox.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/box-150x112.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.bloomsbythebox.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/box-768x575.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.bloomsbythebox.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/box-1024x767.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.bloomsbythebox.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/box-510x382.jpg 510w, https:\/\/www.bloomsbythebox.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/box-1080x809.jpg 1080w, https:\/\/www.bloomsbythebox.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/box.jpg 1184w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2>Step 8<\/h2>\n<p>Then we wait. It is best to leave the flowers in a room that doesn\u2019t get too cold or too hot. Also, placing them in direct sunlight can cause them to open prematurely or wilt. DO NOT REFRIGERATE YOUR FLOWERS!<\/p>\n<h2>Step 9<\/h2>\n<p>The next step will be the day before your wedding, this is your arranging day! Start by making the first of multiple bouquets or centerpieces, and let your crew use it to create similar arrangements. Remember they don\u2019t need to be exactly the same, but only have to carry the same feeling. \u00a0It\u2019s important to count your different flowers and be sure you use quantities that you can distribute evenly across the number of arrangements you need to make.\u00a0 Leave yourself enough time.\u00a0 With a little practice, it will take about 20 minutes to create an arrangement, and that will get even quicker if you\u2019re making many of the same, like centerpieces.\u00a0 Boutonnieres can take just 10 minutes or less.<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-18361 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bloomsbythebox.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/bouq-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"Bouquet of flowers cutting stems\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.bloomsbythebox.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/bouq-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.bloomsbythebox.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/bouq-150x100.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.bloomsbythebox.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/bouq-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.bloomsbythebox.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/bouq-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.bloomsbythebox.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/bouq-1080x720.jpg 1080w, https:\/\/www.bloomsbythebox.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/bouq.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2>Step 10<\/h2>\n<p>Storing arrangements such as centerpieces is easy. Again, you\u2019ll want to keep them somewhere not too hot or too cold and out of direct sunlight. Bouquets can be kept in a jar or vase with just a few inches of water \u2013 put any fabric wraps on the day of the event. You should NOT refrigerate arrangements or bouquets. Boutonnieres and corsages are the only exception to arranging the day before and should be done the day of if at all possible. <\/p>\n<p>Because arranging boutonnieres and corsages requires you to cut the stem short and wrap them with tape it can be difficult to keep them in water and therefore keep them alive and looking fresh. It can be done early on the wedding day if you are planning on doing them yourself but it is best to find someone who you can pass that task too. Boutonnieres are a breeze!<\/p>\n<h2>Step 11<\/h2>\n<p>WEDDING DAY! Depending on what you are DIYing, you\u2019ll want to delegate the dropping off of centerpieces to your venue with someone else, this can also be done the day before if your venue allows! If you are planning to decorate an arbor, your chair, a welcome sign, or anything that might take time, again you\u2019ll want to delegate or do it yourself day-of as your schedule allows.<\/p>\n<h2>Step 12<\/h2>\n<p>The last step is to give yourself three cheers because you\u2019ve done it! Enjoy all your hard work and don\u2019t forget what your big day is all about!<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_18368\" style=\"width: 310px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/tiffanyljohnson.com\/\" rel=\"noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-18368\" class=\"wp-image-18368 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bloomsbythebox.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/threecheers-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"Bride and Groom with guests throwing confetti\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.bloomsbythebox.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/threecheers-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.bloomsbythebox.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/threecheers-150x100.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.bloomsbythebox.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/threecheers-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.bloomsbythebox.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/threecheers-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.bloomsbythebox.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/threecheers-1080x720.jpg 1080w, https:\/\/www.bloomsbythebox.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/threecheers.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-18368\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photograph by: Tiffany Johnson<\/p><\/div>\n<p>So, there you have it, start to finish!
