You set a date, book your venue, make a guest list, buy the dress\/ tux, pick colors, and get a photographer. It is not until later that you start to plan details like flower decor. Many times, couples decide on DIY wedding flowers early in the planning process but not think about the flowers, colors, or placing an order for a month or two before the wedding. This is normal and even preferred! After all, flowers are part of nature, you they are cut only a few days before you receive them.\u00a0 Here are some suggestions that will help you plan and execute gorgeous DIY wedding flowers while keeping your stress levels down.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-7884 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bloomsbythebox.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/3-Flowers-Close.jpg\" alt=\"DIY Wedding Flowers\" width=\"584\" height=\"438\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.bloomsbythebox.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/3-Flowers-Close.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.bloomsbythebox.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/3-Flowers-Close-150x112.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.bloomsbythebox.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/3-Flowers-Close-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.bloomsbythebox.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/3-Flowers-Close-100x75.jpg 100w, https:\/\/www.bloomsbythebox.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/3-Flowers-Close-198x149.jpg 198w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 584px) 100vw, 584px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>1.
