Hi friends! Today’s wedding Wedinesdays is super fun! I’m giving you a peak at what tools I bring with me on wedding days to create floral installations and other beautiful statement pieces.
Let’s get to it!
Chicken Wire
A trusty stand by. It can be morphed into any shape and cut into any size. Most of our installations have a chicken wire base.
Brick clips
Great for mantle installations in receptions!
Zip ties
You can use zip ties for anything! Definitely one of the most important tools for event days.
Floral foam
We like to stay away from foam as much as possible, but foam is still a great tool for a floral designer. We can use it in centerpieces, arbors, and anywhere we want really.
Green waterproof tape.
Great for hanging delicate greenery on walls and other surfaces. It also is camoflauge.
Fishing line
Fishing line is great for a lot of things including creating floating installations.
Bind wire
Basically like never-ending twisty ties. One of my faves for attaching florals to chairs.
Floral wire
Great to have on hand in case of a bouquet emergency.
Command Hooks and strips
God bless the inventor of command strips. Super great for attaching garland and certain floral installations.
Hot glue gun
For when the bride forgets to add a corsage for a family member, we can whip one up really quick!
Uglu Dashes
Basically, super-duty tape that is waterproof and weatherproof. We use this to attach flower pieces to vessels.
Gaffer’s tape
Similar to duct tape but doesn’t leave a residue behind.
Honorable mentions that we always have on hand
Water pitchers to refilling water
Garbage bags for clean up
Step ladder
Hope you enjoyed this post!
