Wedding season has traditionally always been during the summer, but one of the biggest wedding trends over the past few years has beenfall weddings. There are lots of benefits to having an “off-season” wedding. Venues are usually more available and less expensive, guests will not be away on their summer vacations and you canembrace the unique offerings of each season. No matter what dateyour wedding falls on, you can tailor your wedding bouquet to capture the essence of the season. We used our Four Seasons Home Decor Cricut cartridge to create four paper wedding bouquets perfect for spring, summer, fall and winter weddings.
For each of the paper wedding bouquets we began with a 5 inch foam ball. Cut off one end of the foam ball so that it has a flat back. Fold 5-6 pieces of 18 gauge floral wirein half and glue the ends into the flat side of the foam ball. Wrap floral tape around the bunch of wires to create a handle for the bouquet. From here, you can begin crafting each bouquet. The trick for filling out the paper wedding bouquets is to start by gluing on an abundance of leaves and then building out the arrangement from there. Glue the leaves onto short pieces of floral wire that you can stick into the foam, and use a variety of greens to create depth in the bouquet.We found all of our gorgeous metallic papers on Paper-Papers. Feel free to browse their site to pick out your favorite colors!
For our Spring bouquet, we went for a lush, blooming look with royal purple orchids and vibrant green leaves. The Summer bouquetfeatures happy white daisies with pops of cornflower blue flowers and yellow freesia. Moving into the Fall bouquet, we of course wanted to feature fall leaves in rich plums with gold acorns and large red cosmos. Our Winter bouquet may be my favorite. It is elegant and crisp and just looking at it makes me think of smelling an irresistible pine scent. This bouquet blends beautiful white gardenias with pine leaves, holly berries and pinecones. A true stunner for any winter wedding!

Hi! Do you have a tutorial for the spring bouquet? I have the SVG file from DS, but I am not seeing the tutorial anywhere.

Hi Tina! This is an older project that was commissioned by Cricut using flowers from the cartridge we created for them. Unfortunately there is no photo tutorial (only the written instructions included with the project on Design Space).

I have the summer bouquet files from my cricut access, but it seems the yellow freesia that is displayed was not included in the cut file. How do I get that?

Is there assembly instructions for the summer bouquet? I have all the flowers and leaves cut from Cricut design space but it looks like there are additional flowers in there. I was wondering how you assembled the entire bouquet. love these! and this is my first bridal bouquet. did do one of your large flowers arrangements with the hydrangeas and I love it!

hello, i have the files for the spring bouquet but can not seem to figure out the small purple buds. i dont see the file for it when i got my files from cricut. is there a way i can get an SVG file for them?

Thank you for pointing this out, Stephanie! It looks like the wrong file has been uploaded to Design Space. The buds are part of the orchid flower included in the bouquet, which you can find here for free! https://liagriffith.com/diy-metallic-paper-dendrobium-orchids/

Absolutely Gorgeous! Love all your bridal bouquets. I was wondering if you had a video of how you make the foam ball & the handle for the bouquet & also if you can tell me how to make these bouquets into cascading bouquet.
Thank in advance. 😀

Lia April 17, 2017 at 7:41am
@Pam Stumph
Thank you Pam! Sorry, I don’t have a video for that. To make a bouquet cascading, just add longer floral wires of foliage and flowers. This bouquet has excess foliage on one side that I could have added to make more cascading: https://liagriffith.com/diy-rustic-paper-bridal-bouquet/

Emily April 2, 2017 at 7:56pm
Hi Lia, I got through to the purchase page almost right after left my comment so now that I have the file I am slowly putting it together, but I am slightly confused about some of the directions. For example in the first part it says to make 10 cornflowers, but in the directions it doesn’t mention how to put together cornflowers, only how to make bachelor buttons. I believe they are meant to be the same thing but I just wanted to make sure before I continue with the whole project. Any help is appreciated and I am loving the files so far! Thanks again!

Hi Emily! Yes cornflowers/bachelor buttons are the same thing– that’s actually a typo though, we meant to only use one term to avoid confusion! Thanks for pointing that out.

Can I buy just the file for the Summer bouquet? I am looking to make it for my best friend for her wedding but am possibly not understanding how to get the file. Do I need to buy the whole home decor file set to get the leaves for this one? Thanks so much and am looking forward to this beautiful creation!

I love all of them…just hard to decide which one to make for my wedding, they are all so beautiful….I don’t have a cricut machine, just wondering if the pdf format is available too.

@Maylen Cepero-Mendez
Thank you Maylen! I’m sorry, this was a partnership with Cricut so only cut files are available through their online software. We have lots of paper flowers on the site though (and all of our crepe paper flowers are handcut!), so hopefully you can find some that will work for your wedding. Search here: https://liagriffith.com/handcraftyourlife/paper-flowers/ (Please note, some of the flowers in this category are partnerships with Cricut or only have cut files, but many have PDFs available).

These are stunning! I love the look of metallic paper but I can’t find them around my area. I wonder if there is a alternative type of paper that can be used to create the same look?

Thank you Kathleen! Are you able to order online from paper-papers.com? Your local craft store may carry pearlized paper (which is practically the same thing), but any text weight paper will still turn out beautiful results 🙂
