I'm new self learning florist. Have been inspired for 2 years and finally educating myself and your videos are awesome and captions are hilarious!
I love that title, self-learning florist. I think that's what we all are, even after years of doing it! Thank you for such a kind comment, the world needs more people like you, Dion. XXXX, Ames
You guys are great! Thank you!❤❤❤❤
Thanks for the step by step build up of the gorgeous arrangements. Learning so much from you guys and creating my own as I begin my journey as a new florist. Thank you !!!
So thrilled to hear that!!!!!
You can also hang the cage on a funeral easel...works great if you're not working on site. Just a little designer to designer trick! Love your videos!!
Oh wonderful idea, thank you!!!!! XOXOX
I LOVE your work!!!
Thank you, sweet lady!!!!
You girls are awesome 👏 beautiful works 👏👏👏
Thank you for your kind comment, Elsa! XXXX, Amy
Thanks!
Thanks this is really helpful. I have to do a foam free arrangement like this. Have you tried Agra wool on an arrangement like this? Or have you ever tried a sustainable alternative? I’m in Australia so it gets hot. I definitely need something legit
We have used Agrawool and Oshun Pouches before! I like using Oshun Pouches because they have a covering over the substrate inside the pouch which helps with water retention. When using either of these methods, you will definitely want to create the arch on the day of and potentially a couple of hours before the ceremony to maintain the integrity of the flowers.
Beautiful! Do you think I could do this on Thursday for a Saturday wedding if I keep the floral foam soaking on Friday? Or would the flowers and greenery be wilty by Saturday?
It would look sad if it wasn't in a cooler. You can green it out the day before and maybe add flowers if it's in a cold garage, but if it's hot outside then stick with popping in the flowers the day of. Foam just doesn't keep them hydrated enough in the heat for long periods.
I hope one day I can do a collaboration with you ✨🌿🌷
I love collabs!!! XOXO
do you have a good recommendation for the rubber shelving paper that you mentioned? a link maybe?
Here ya go cutie!

What is your advice for greening out the cages ahead of time then hanging them? Or assembling the entire arrangement a day ahead and hanging it? I will be able to keep everything in a cool room until the morning of the wedding but will not be able to assemble on site until the last minute and worry I won't have time to build 2 cage arrangements that quickly.
I'm a HUGE FAN of greening out in advance! It's not hard, but it does take way more time, I can backfill with my blooms pretty quickly and I like to do it on the arch so I can see my dispersement.
You can green-out the day before, just re-wet the cage the day of with a hose or kitchen sink sprayer. If you want to add the blooms the day of and not on site, that's fine, too. Just take a bucket of some extras because it's easy to snap one or need to fill in some gaps.

@@FlowerMoxie thanks so much!
@@FlowerMoxieyour video is so beautifully explained. How can i assemble the flowers if i am taking 2 different size triangles and keeping them side by side.
Also, what’s the white backdrop that’s behind the Triangle stand?
If I built it later Friday for Saturday evening wedding, what are the storing instructions I'd need to follow?
Keep it inside in the cool temp, or if the garage is colder, keep it there. Mist it down with Crowning Glory and re-wet the bricks with a kitchen sink sprayer or hose the following day. It should hold up just fine!
May I spray the Crowning Glory on the bouquet that is already on a cage installed on the arch?
Can you link the product used for this and clarify the quantity you used as well? I’m having a hard time navigating the site to understand what each “ceremony flowers” package actually makes.
So this was done at the height of the pandy, so a lot of flowers were unavailable and we had to substitute. This would be closest to our Autumn and Terracotta package.
When it comes to 'ceremony flowers' it means you can create 2 cages (for an arch) or 2 large arrangements in an urn. The recipe stays the same regardless of either application.
I keep the ceremony flowers kinda simple for cost purposes and to allow the customer to add on their favorite element to make it specific to their design. Does that make sense?
Is the floral foam soaked for these installations? Or dry for arches because of the weight and to prevent leaking? If dry, what’s a good timeline to finish installing these pieces before ceremony time to avoid any flowers not looking their best before ceremony starts?
Hello Kirsten, yes, the foam is always pre-soaked! I typically put down towels when I'm building on-site because they will leak a little when you're inserting the blooms.
Personally, if you don't want to deal with foam, then I would skip the cages altogether and just make a cluster of floral chicken wire. Hardy flowers will have no problem holding up for several hours, especially if it's not hot and outdoors.
@@FlowerMoxie that is great advice! Thanks for the quick reply too! I’m a newly licensed florist and I’ve been watching your videos nonstop to learn tips and tricks. You should see my notes on my phone, nothing but yalls advice and tips from all the videos!!
@@kirstenverdin5248 Oh that makes my day!!!!
May I please have dimensions of the triangle arch
It was around 6.5-7 feet tall. If you have a chop saw, drill, and wood stain, you could definitely tackle building this yourself!
