When it comes to formal decor, there are a lot of classic staples that always seem to make an appearance. However, if you want to add a little something extra special to your wedding day, why not consider using faux flowers? Not only are they unique and stunning, but they can also be a lot more affordable than fresh flowers. 

In this blog, not only will you discover several ideas for wedding decoration using faux flowers but also the techniques on how to make artificial flower arrangements for weddings. 

Why Should You Opt For Artificial Flowers Wedding Decoration? 

For wedding decorations, using artificial flowers is a great way to save money while still having stunning arrangements. Not only are they cheaper than fresh flowers, but they also last longer. This means that you won't have to worry about your wedding flowers wilting or dying on your big day. 

Additionally, as these flowers don't produce pollen, they are an excellent option for those who suffer from allergies. Whether you're planning on having traditional floral arrangements or opting for something more unique for your wedding flowers, fake flowers can be used to decorate nearly everything on your wedding day. 

Floral Wedding Decorations and How to Make Them 

There are numerous wedding flowers decoration ideas out there, from table centrepieces to beautiful bouquets, but these four stand out as genuinely great options for any wedding theme. Here they are: 

1. Flower Wall 

For those who love flowers and want to do something for their wedding or engagement photography, artificial flower walls can be a great idea. They are easy and quick to make, and the results will look lovely. 

Flower walls can be used as a background for photos, and you can modify them according to your imagination and the job you want to do. There are no limits – a flower wall is very flexible and can be used in many different ways. And if you use artificial wedding flowers, you won't even have to worry about them wilting or falling off! 

How to Make an Artificial Flower Wall 

We suggest using a mixture of large and small wedding flowers to give your wall a full, yet natural look. But the colours and styles you choose are totally up to you. 

• Step 1: You can either arrange the flowers into piles of the same colour or get a pre-made flower arrangement like those listed on Saffron's Decor . This will help you to evenly distribute the flowers as you build out your wall. 

• Step 2: Start from the outside, and thread the flowers through the metal mesh panel. Make sure to secure them as you go along with the garden wire to help them remain in place. 

• Step 3: Then, work your way inwards, making sure to vary the colours, so there's a natural mix of colours (you can take flower or colour recommendations from florists, too). 

• Step 4: Once your panel is complete, add your choice of wall hanger and secure this to the back of the panel, so you can connect it to the wall or the rail (depending on where you'd like your flower wall to go). 

2. Artificial Hydrangea Table Centrepieces 

Artificial hydrangeas are a few the most popular wedding flowers. These can come in different shades and sizes to suit your wedding theme. You can use them as centerpieces both high and low. Floral arrangements for artificial hydrangeas flowers can also be done in different shapes just like natural flower centerpieces. 

How to Make Artificial Hydrangea Centerpieces 

• Step 1: Gather faux flowers, artificial trimmings, and floral tape. Be sure to browse our Hydrangea floral arrangements while gathering your supplies for this. 

• Step 2: Place the wedding flowers arrangement on a colour of your choice of floral tape. You can use every different colour to make artificial hydrangea centerpieces for weddings, including green, red, white, and blue trimmings. 

• Step 3: Start in the middle of the artificial hydrangea centerpiece with a few flower stems in a bud formation, then add additional flower arrangements to complete the look. You can also add artificial hydrangeas flower bouquets in different colours to make your centerpieces stand out. 

3. Tabletop Tulips 

Tabletop artificial tulips are one of the most beautiful wedding flowers for decoration. They can be used to make bouquets or centerpieces. The artificial tabletop tulips look like real ones, and the best part is they will never wilt! 

Tabletop artificial tulips are not a new idea in wedding decoration, but recently more and more artificial flowers are being used for wedding decoration, and tabletop artificial tulips are one of them. 

Tulips are considered romantic and classic wedding flowers that look beautiful in both indoor and outdoor decoration. These unique artificial tabletop tulips, much like the real tulips form, are beautiful artificial flowers for wedding decoration. They look gorgeous with fresh or silk leaves and stems in vases or baskets and here is how you can make this yourself. 

How to make Tabletop Tulip Bouquets and Centrepieces for Weddings 

They are really easy to make, and you only need artificial flower arrangement of your choice and a Styrofoam base. 

To make artificial tabletop tulips, you simply use the wiring technique to make tulip buds or opt for pre-arranged tulips. If you choose to go with pre-arranged tulips, why not explore our tulip flower arrangements? 

Once you have your tulips, you can use a Styrofoam base or a small flowerpot to place artificial tabletop tulips in. It is a good idea to place the flowers, including the artificial tabletop tulips, in containers filled with green florist rocks to make them look like they are growing out of the ground. 

4. Floral Photo Booth 

Create a photo booth with artificial floral for a fun and charming touch at the wedding. The faux flowers allow guests to take as many pictures as they want without having to worry about flower arrangements being damaged. Plus, you can reuse these blooms for future events that may require flowers! 

How to Make a Floral Photo Booth for a Wedding 

You'll need artificial flowers to create the photo booth. While looking for faux flowers for your photo booth, be sure to check out our collection of floral arrangements.

• Step 1: Find a spot in your wedding reception space 

Photobooths are typically set up along walls or tables, so find a spot that will be easily accessible to all guests at your reception. 

• Step 2: Put the flowers on a table or wall 

Next, place the flowers on the table or the wall. Select the blooms that will complement your wedding theme and colours. If you'd like, you can also use artificial flowers as a backdrop and what guests will take pictures in front of. And if you're placing them on a table, remember that bouquets are always in style! 

• Step 3: Hang an artificial flower backdrop 

Take two artificial floral pieces and use wire to attach them behind the artificial floral backdrop. You can create a sort of "X" where the artificial flowers meet. This will increase space for guests wanting to take pictures. 

• Step 4: Take pictures with your camera or phone 

Now that you have an artificial flower photo booth lined with flowers, let your guests take photos! Moreover, you can also use artificial flowers to decorate your wedding album, bridal bouquet, cake, groom's boutonniere, and more. 

Conclusion 

If you're looking for a way to put in some extra charm to your wedding, consider artificial flowers. Not only are they gorgeous and cheap but can also be used for photo ops and added decoration such as bouquets and flower baskets. Choose faux flowers, choose a splash of colours that will bring your wedding to life.
