What to Do With Your Bridal Bouquet After The Wedding

You may have your wedding bouquet on display for years because Flowersarch wedding flowers don't wilt or fade. Additionally, complicated and expensive preservation techniques are not a concern for you. Whatever you decide to do with your flowers, they will still look as beautiful and fresh as they did on your wedding day.

Here are a few of our top suggestions for what to do with your bridal bouquet from Flowersarch following the ceremony.

Preserve your bouquet in a shadow box. 

A shadow box is a great way to display your bridal bouquet if you want to preserve it. One of the most significant ways to display one of your most treasured wedding day mementos is with a shadow box. You'll be taken back to your wedding location and all the memorable times you spent with your significant other each time you look at it.

If your arrangement was created using Flowersarch flowers, you don't need to take any extra precautions to keep it fresh. Simply put it in a frame or glass case and display it anywhere you wish. For a more creative display, you can even add more wedding-related souvenirs, such as a groom's boutonniere.

Give your bouquet to a special guest.

Giving your bridal bouquet as a unique treat to one of your guests is a great way to share its beauty.

Your best friend, mother or sister, maid of honor, or even someone unable to attend your wedding could be your choice. Whoever you choose will be flattered to receive your bouquet, which is a great honor.

Repurpose your bouquet in home decor

If you want to give your bridal bouquet a new purpose, consider repurposing it as home décor. Your bouquet can be a centerpiece in a personalized vase or planter. This is an excellent method of carrying the elegance of your wedding day into your new home life.

Depending on the color choice, your bouquet might also make an excellent holiday decorating item. For example, warm terracotta for a Thanksgiving table spread or delicate pastels inspired by Bridgerton for an Easter wedding. If your wedding falls on a holiday, this could also be an excellent way to commemorate it.

Use individual flowers as bookmarks

If you don't want to preserve your bridal bouquet, you can breathe new life into individual flower stems with scissors or wire cutters.

Think of cutting off individual stems from your bouquet as bookmarks. While the blossoms peak from the top pages, use the stems to hold onto your spot in a beloved book.

Try marking personalized messages in your wedding guest book with these for a unique touch. You will now be greeted by the flowers from your bridal bouquet each time you open its pages. After your wedding, it's a great way to take a trip down memory lane. Seeing your vibrant flowers is a great way to add realism to that momentous occasion.

Frame flowers in an art piece

If you're looking for more inventive ways to use your bridal bouquet, why not turn it into a piece of art? Your flowers are perfect for art presentations because they won't wilt or fade.

Making a collage of vibrant flowers inspired by your wedding day or just putting your flowers in a frame are both simple options. Additionally, a personalized work of art would be a fantastic anniversary present for your significant other. It will be much more special if you include flowers in your bouquet. For a full exhibition, you can frame it alongside photos taken by your wedding photographer.

Style DIY clothing

After the wedding, are you wondering how to wear your bridal bouquet? Consider adding accent pieces to a backpack or tote using the flowers from your wedding bouquet. Long after your wedding day, this is an excellent opportunity to showcase your distinct sense of design. It's also a fun way to make your clothes.

It's not just bags that can be personalized. Hats and shoes make excellent DIY accent pieces as well. Try to think of original methods to show off your sense of style.

Create resin decor

Resin molds can also preserve larger flowers, though jewelry is a great way to protect tiny ones. You can make various unusual shapes to maintain your flowers, like pyramids, alphabet letters, crystals, and many more.

It's yet another inventive method to use your bridal bouquet to decorate your house. Additionally, you can recall your wedding whenever you view your do-it-yourself product.
