Wedding arch decoration

Just finished this flower decoration for my wedding ceremony!! The foam is from hobby lobby, and most of the faux flowers are brought by my mom from China. This in total take me about an hour, including sticking the foams together, tie zip tie around the foam so that it can be hung, and arranging all the faux flowers. Will do another one, just to put one per corner.

Our color theme is dusty blue and peach. All the girls are gonna wear dusty blur dress, so I didn't incorporate blue here. it's just hard to find blue faux flower that looks real.

This will be the only faux flower that I'm gonna use for the wedding. Ordered the rest from Costco, Sam's, and fiftyflowers. I guess it's really possible to be your own florist!

Only 10 days until my wedding!! Feeling nervous and excited!!!

    Maybe. Depends on how much of the other hand made decor I get done! Painting wooden items is becoming tedious. Lol

    That is absolutely BEAUTIFUL!!!
    I was considering using faux flowers for the arch decoration as well - you have tempted me to do so even further!

    Do it!!! It's actually not hard as I thought at all!! Just start from the middle and then spread the arrangement to the two ends. I think the most important part is to add lots of greenery, to make it look more natural
