How to Make a Flower Wreath for Wedding Decor 

Now that you have your materials together, it’s time to begin making your hanging floral arrangements.

Step 1: Prepare the floral foam

To start, cut the floral foam into five equal pieces. These will serve as the foundation for your floral wreath design. After that, press every component onto the ring. To give the wreath a balanced appearance, distribute them equally around it.

Step 2: Secure the foam

Use two cable ties to secure each piece of floral foam. Without cutting into the foam, wrap each tie just tightly enough to keep it in place. Trim off any extra cable ties to maintain the neatness of your wreath. That completes the base of your wreath!

Step 3: Create the hanging arrangement

Line up five cotton twine pieces and cut them all the same length. Having even pieces of string will make it easier to level the hanging wreath and prevent it from tilting.

Between each layer of floral foam, tie one end of each length of twine to the wreath frame. Next, tie a knot by pinching the twine’s free ends together. If you want to change the height of your hanging wreath later, leave a little length behind the knot.

Please make sure the hanging arrangement is level before picking it up. Then, hang the wreath’s base where you like to adorn it and change its height.

Step 4: Start to add flowers

Start embellishing by placing the most prominent flowers in each piece of floral foam. These can be added at various depths to create the floral arrangement’s focal point. Then, using the more prominent flowers as a focal point, begin placing medium flowers evenly throughout your hanging wreath.

Add smaller ornamental flowers to give the wreath a more delicate appearance and lighter blooms to provide depth to the color scheme.

Step 5: Add extra embellishments

After you’ve planted all of your significant flowers, it’s time to add some finishing touches to your do-it-yourself décor. Cover any exposed floral foam by inserting tiny round leaves or other decorations into any space.

Add colorful flowers and sprigs of foliage to enhance your wreath’s vertical impact on the top of the arrangement. Your hanging wreath’s upper half is finished!

Step 6: Build the bottom half

Start by inserting the longest clematis leaves into the floral foam as the center point of the bottom half, using the shape of a wind chime as a guide. To create a dynamic arrangement that resembles nature, begin adding more trailing foliage, being careful to vary the lengths, depths, and directions of growth. Keep adding leaves to make your hanging wreath look full and lush.

Step 7: Finishing touches

Ensure that any last bits of foliage climb up and out of the holes left throughout your wreath. Your do-it-yourself décor will come to life as a result. Your hanging floral wreath decoration is finished once the floral foam is entirely coated!

A distinctive twist on wedding décor, this hanging floral wreath may be hung anywhere to refine, visually appeal, and color your exceptional day. Think about placing it near the wedding cake table, beside the bar during cocktail hour, at the entrance to the ceremony, or even above the reception tables as a distinctive chandelier centerpiece.

I wish you luck in creating this stunning hanging wedding décor. Remember to enjoy the creative process when creating your ideal setup. We’d also love to see the outcomes if you choose to give this guide a try! We would love to see your Flowersarch wedding photos on Instagram at @flowersarch.
