Wedding garlands are the perfect and very versatile addition to other wedding decor details. Use them to create a wedding arch, drape over chairs, hang them on tables or over doors, and even on your car! We offer several options for using fresh flowers to create three different garlands, each of which will delight you with its unique look. The basis of each decoration in this case was a white chrysanthemum, but these garlands can be created from any type of fresh flowers.
First option
The first garland is created only from flowers. We chose green leaves and white chrysanthemums along with pink carnations for a garland that will look especially delicate and striking.
To create such a decoration, you first need to decide on the choice of colors. You probably have your favorites. Feel free to choose them. Think about the placement of buds - each flower should be placed so that it looks as impressive as possible.
It is important not to braid the flowers too long so that the buds do not hang down. Then they don’t look so neat and can get damaged. After weaving the garland, it must be tightly tied with a beautiful floral ribbon. Also note that carnations are quite fragile plants. Working with them requires especially careful handling. Otherwise, the thin stems at the base of the bud may break.

You will need:
— Cardboard cylinder (you can use a cylinder from paper towels or wrapping paper)
- lace fabric
- corrugated paper
- scissors
- double tape
- thick thread (string)
- decorations (stars, sparkles) - if desired
1.
Cut the lace fabric and crepe paper into rectangles. The shortest part of the rectangle should be long enough to wrap around the cylinder.
The longest part should have the length of the cardboard cylinder plus 15-20 cm.
* It is advisable that all souvenirs be the same size.
2.
Wrap paper and fabric around the cylinder so that the fabric is on the outside (see picture).
3.
Secure the structure with double tape, then tie a twine at one end.
4.
Using the open part of the cylinder, fill it with candy and tie the end of the craft with twine.
5.
If you wish, you can decorate your candy gift with stars, glitter, stickers, etc.
Additional Tips
If you feel that the composition is not saturated enough, try adding even more of your favorite colors to it. Continue adding flowers to the garland by wrapping the stems along with the floral ribbon as you did earlier. Again, arrange the flowers so that they can be viewed from any direction.
The length of the garland depends on where it will be used. It is logical that the longer the product, the more flowers and ribbon will be needed to create it.

Once all the flowers are in place, use scissors to remove any excess branches and leaves to get the perfect look.
Balloon decor
Inflatable products should be quite dense so that by the middle of the celebration some of them will not deflate or burst. To speed up the inflation process, you can use a pump. All balls must be the same size. The use of two close shades is encouraged, for example, dark blue and light blue.
Balls of the same color must be knitted in pairs. It is recommended to fasten them with fishing line. Tie two pairs of multi-colored balls together so that the colors alternate. Inflate the remaining balloons and fasten them in the same way. Tie each component element to the base. The length of the garland is adjustable as desired.
Important Features
You can wrap the arrangement with floral ribbon in the same way as you wrapped the previous garland. But since most succulents don't have long stems, you may need to wrap the roots rather than the stem.
To do this, the roots must be thoroughly cleaned and dried before starting the weaving process. It is important to ensure that succulents remain safe. Even a small amount of dirt can affect the tape's ability to adhere securely.
Retro style jewelry
A garland made in this style allows you to create a very romantic atmosphere at a festive celebration. The decoration is based on standard incandescent lamps. Such garlands will look especially original at a wedding in eco-style or loft style. They will illuminate the room or garden well and give the whole celebration a special zest.
Materials you will need to create a retro decoration:
- installation wire PV1 1x0.75 – 40 meters;
- dimmer – 600W;
- drill;
- fork;
- carbolite cartridges E-14;
- flat and Phillips screwdrivers;
- nails – 2 pcs.;
- matte incandescent lamps 25W E14 – 15 pieces;
- knife for electrical work with a short blade;
- tongs, pliers;
- fork;
- soldering iron, soldering acid and tin;
- hot gun with silicone tubes;
- felt-tip pen;
- patch.
It is necessary to decide what distance will be between adjacent lamps. It is necessary to add another 15 centimeters to this figure, since after all the manipulations of installing the cartridges and twisting the wires, the initially taken length will be reduced. It is optimal if there is 65-70 centimeters between the lamps.
Fold the wires in half and secure with adhesive tape. Divide the wire (with a felt-tip pen) into segments of 80 centimeters and add another two centimeters to the connection. Cut the wire sheath with pliers. In the same place, on a two-centimeter segment, remove the insulation using a knife.
The cartridges need to be inserted. To do this, make a loop in the place of the exposed wire (a nail will help) and attach the wire to the socket. Connect to contacts. Remove the screw and leave the nut. It is necessary that the loop is in the middle of the contact and the nut. Align the screw guide using a nail. Place the screw and tighten. Do the same with the second wire, but on the other side. All other cartridges are mounted in a similar way.
The advantage of the parallel installation method is that if one lamp burns out, the rest will shine. Pull and twist each piece of wire between the cartridges. Using a hot gun, silicone is applied to the wire, which will protect the product from moisture. Then, at the base of each cartridge, the wire is tied with a special knot. This procedure will give the garland reliability and a more attractive appearance. All that remains is to install the dimmer and plug. A gorgeous garland for the festive ceremony is ready.

Another option
This last garland is created in the fastest way if you need to act urgently. To make it, you don't need to create a base. Because its role is played by bright and long ivy. For such a great start, all you have to do is choose your favorite flowers, floral ribbon and soft wire. Moreover, any of the flowers will do, since they will all go perfectly with the greenery of ivy.

Creating a garland
Start by tying the ends of the long ivy. They need to be stacked one on top of the other, and then carefully wrapped with floral wire. Once the garland is tied and you are sure it is the right length, you can start adding flowers.
Place the flower stem against the main vine and wrap it with special tape to ensure a strong attachment. Continue adding flowers at regular intervals along the vine until your garland is sufficiently filled with flowers.
The advantage of using ivy as the base of a wedding garland is that the leaves of this evergreen plant do not require special placement. They are clearly visible from any direction, since they most likely lie in the same direction.
Ivy pairs beautifully with almost any flower and looks lush and natural if you use vines intertwined with leaves. And thanks to its large length, such decorations can be used on the car of the bride and groom. The plant will withstand the effects of both speed and wind. And it will look much more impressive than traditional plastic bouquets.

Descendants of Hobbits
Wedding planning is for brides-to-be. Men can only sit quietly and wait for their “fate.” It is rare when a bride relies solely on the opinion of her future spouse in choosing the wedding ambiance and style of the celebration as a whole. Consensus is easy to achieve if both future newlyweds are crazy about the world of Tolkien.
If the bride and groom know and respect Martin Freeman not only from Sherlock Holmes, but also from The Hobbit, why not have a wedding in an elven style.
To do this, decorate the wedding hall with fabric yourself. Give preference to rich shades - emerald, amber. The colors should not be pretentious; elves and hobbits do not like this arrangement.
Rhinestones and sequins should be completely excluded from wedding decor. Leave them to those newlyweds who are planning a wedding in a glamorous style.
Fresh flowers will add elegance to the room. Their color scheme should be combined with the overall color scheme of the celebration.

Decorate your wedding hall in this style with an original buffet table
With the help of light you can bring the background color to perfection and diversify your interior design.
For example, the use of LED garlands is especially impressive in combination with fabrics in the design of a table for young people, a backdrop, columns, railings and other interior details. Spotlight illumination allows you to fill more space with light, and spot lighting will highlight individual elements, subtly emphasizing the elegance of the chosen place.
At the beginning of the celebration, you can use one lighting option, and then, as the feast progresses, change it. And the most important moments of the wedding are perfectly illustrated with light accents - for example, fireworks.
The advantage of light decorations is their limitless design variations. They allow you to turn dreams and fantasies into reality, making the surrounding reality fantastic. Let yourself feel like you are in a fabulous place. Fill this magical moment of celebration with fabulous light.
