Simple'n Stunning Martha Stewart Wedding Bouquet Ideas

I'm a big fan of Martha, but, not all of her "simple" ideas are simple...

Ordering professionally arranged bouquets is all well and good, but like any other service, florists charge for their time and expertise. Luckily, these Martha Stewart wedding bouquet ideas are simple enough for the DIY'er!

Before we get into it, I want to make sure you don't take on something that you're not ready for. Making a bouquet, however simple the design you choose takes time and energy. And, there are two things that are at a premium on your wedding day - time and patience.

And...doing a wedding bouquet takes alot of both!

If you're going to do your flowers yourself make sure that you get some help - especially if you have a lot of other DIY projects. And, if possible practice with your flowers once or twice in advance.

And, as I always say make sure you choose your diy projects wisely...Making the right choices can help save thousands on your overall wedding costs. (Find out how in Perfect Weddings Without Debt).

Simple Bundles of Pretty

You don’t need hundreds of blossoms to create a bridal bouquet, especially not with these amazing Martha Stewart wedding bouquets. Some of the prettiest and most elegant bouquets are made up simply of a select few stems. You can save so much when you create arrangements in this style, yet still maintain that level of minimalist fabulousness.

Both utterly elegant and undeniably beautiful, tulips and calla lilies are what you would call true ‘statement flowers’.		Fluffy and ethereal as a cloud, this bunch of viburnum and a Queen Anne's lace look-alike need nothing more than to be wrapped with ribbon for a truly timeless bridal bouquet.

Romantic Big Blooms

Martha Stewart wedding flower ideas make it easy to create maximum style with minimal effort. Try creating a bouquet out of oversize flowers. Simply bunch together several big blooms in similar shades, tie neatly, and there you have it – instant drama!

This bouquet of anemones and white sweet peas tied with a narrow dotted ribbon is ideal for an ultra-formal black and pink wedding.		Gorgeous full-blown peonies in shades of pink and peach are effortlessly chic and easy to work with, needing only the simplest arrangement to show them off.

Sweet Little Nosegays

One of the budget-friendly Martha Stewart wedding ideas I like most are her little nosegay designs! If you’d like to have your own bouquet professionally made, you can still save by creating the floral arrangements for bridesmaids and flowergirls at home.

Nosegays are perfect for this– they're smaller than big bouquets, they tend to be easier to put together and actually look cuter for being a little ‘unpolished/homemade’.

These violets and pansies with green muscari would be perfect for a petite bride wearing a simple ivory gown, or to accompany bridesmaids in delicate violet dresses.		This gorgeous bunch of miniature daffodils, crocus, and oncidium orchids is simply tied together with a wide ribbon – easy, breezy, sunny beauty.

Simple Tone-on-tone bouquets

Looking for simple wedding flowers ideas? If so, here's a great idea. Once you’ve decided the color palette for your wedding, it’s easy to work out what you need for the floral arrangements, even if you have no experience in floristry.

These Martha Stewart wedding bouquets simply use the color scheme as a guide and assemble the flowers that match most closely. It’s an added benefit that blooms in similar shaded look fabulous together no matter how inexpertly they have been put together!

Simple lavender with crocus flowers look adorable for a sunny garden wedding, and are cheaper than pricey roses or orchids.		Dahlias, miniature carnations, and cyclamen are an economical combination, but put together they look pretty pink-a-licious!

Bouquets Made With Unexpected Blooms

We’ve all seen brides carrying bouquets of roses and orchids, but how about using your homegrown talents to create a really unusual bouquet?

These Martha Stewart wedding bouquets include the less-than-obvious floral choices. Apart from being a little cheaper, it also means that you can get away with avoiding complicated techniques like wiring the flowers without sacrifcing on that WOW factor.

Lilies of the valley are simply stunning and so naturally so stylish, all they require is to be tied together and the stems be wrapped in a wide ribbon		The humble carnation might not be a high-profile swanky, showy flower, but it works really well in a super-simple yet cutting-edge elegant design.
