3 Creative Ways to Wrap a Bridal Bouquet of Flowers

1. Classic Ribbon Wrap

One of the most timeless and elegant ways to wrap a bridal bouquet is with a ribbon. This classic option never goes out of style and offers a range of customization possibilities. Depending on your wedding’s color scheme, you can choose satin, velvet, or lace ribbons to create a look that complements your dress and overall theme.

How to Do It:

• Start by trimming the stems of the bouquet to your desired length.
• Wrap the stems together tightly with floral tape to keep them secure.
• Then, take your ribbon and wrap it around the stems, making sure to cover the floral tape and give a neat finish.
• To add a touch of elegance, you can tie the ribbon in a bow at the top or let it trail down for a more dramatic effect.
• You can even add some small accents like pearls or a charm for a more personalized touch.

This style is perfect for traditional or modern weddings, offering a simple yet stunning aesthetic.

2. Straight Ribbon Wrap

For brides seeking a more natural, rustic, or vintage look, wrapping the bouquet with twine or burlap is a charming option. This earthy style gives the bouquet a relaxed, country vibe that’s perfect for outdoor or barn weddings.

How to Do It:

• After trimming the stems and securing them with floral tape, take a spool of satin ribbon and begin wrapping the ribbon around the stems tightly and overlapping with the previous pass.  
• Once you’ve covered the stems, cut the ribbon, tuck it under and pin to the stems with pearl headed pins.  
• For extra charm, add pearl pins in a pattern all over the ribbon.  

3. French Braid Ribbon Wrap 

If you're looking for something a bit more unique and luxurious, wrapping your bouquet in this unique pattern will add a sophisticated touch. This option is ideal for elegant, opulent weddings and can be a beautiful complement to more extravagant floral arrangements.

How to Do It:

• Choose a ribbon in a color that complements your bouquet and dress. Velvet or satin can provide a rich, tactile experience that feels both plush and refined.
• Cut the ribbon into a super long strip and place it flat on the table.  Place your bouquet vertically over it.  
• Picking up both sides of the ribbon, bring the ends close to each other and up against the stems, then twist and wrap the ribbon back around the underside of the bouquet.  
• Repeat this process several times, creating several knots in a line.  
• Tie the ribbon in the back of the bouquet and present the bouquet with the knots facing forward.  
• Adding pearls or crystals into the braid of the knot is a classy touch!  

This wrap works wonderfully with modern, formal, or black-tie weddings, where a touch of glamour and high-end materials can truly shine.

The way you wrap your bridal bouquet can reflect your personal style and the theme of your wedding. When choosing the perfect wrap, think about the overall look of your wedding and your bouquet design, and remember: this small detail can make a big statement!
