I had been planning on doing these for months, and I'm so in love with how all my sola flower bouquets came out! The bouquets are actually simple to put together, but definitely time consuming. I spent a good couple of hours just on the handles over the last couple days. I spent Saturday with 4 of my bridesmaid and they helped a ton with stemming the flowers. I also let them arrange their own bouquet to make it a bit more special.

I spent roughly $200 total. This included about $90 worth of sola flowers, $50 in filler flowers, and the rest in supplies (such as floral tape, wire stems, hot glue, etc) and shipping costs. With that, I was able to create my bouquet, my toss bouquet, 6 bridesmaids bouquets, 7 boutonnieres, 2 corsages, and 13 arrangements for my centerpieces, and 10 flowers left over. I averaged out the costs to be about $22 for my bouquet, and $7/ea for the BMs bouquets. The centerpieces aren't finished to show, but I will when they are complete.

    Do you know how many flowers you ended up having? I just bought 150 of the sola flowers and I am wondering how much I can do with that many .

    I’m also interested in the filler options you chose, was it just the baby’s breath?

    I just learned about Sola flowers about an hour ago and I am researching like crazy! Your bouquets turned out absolutely gorgeous. How did you make the handles though? Also, how did you attach everything together?
