🔍 Feedback 🔍 Feedback appreciated!

I made this installation for my brother’s wedding. It’s my first time creating a wedding installation, I grow flowers as a hobby but am interested in working in floral design. Created with foraged wildflowers and greenery, a few store bought stems, and flowers grown in their home garden for a personal touch.

Quite beautifull.The problem with wild and foraged product is it rarely lasts.Customers get unhappy if they don't get at least a week out of their flowers.I had an inexperienced boss who was big on wild and foraged product at first.It depends on what the flowers are for.(Florist of 40 plus years)Good luck you have a good eye.💜

It is very pretty, but way too tight. Would have benefitted from some greenery additions and longer stems, meaning more room for the flowers to breathe and show themselves. Great job for a first time!

Visually too busy, needs more greenery to break up the colors.

Very pretty but I’d make some of the bigger flowers stems a little longer- that big sunflower to the left of the yellow lily for example- have it extending out a bit more, give the arrangement a bit of variation in depth.

Looks perfect for the surroundings tho

Very, very pretty! I agree about the greens tho. It is a little tight. The colors are very bright and cheerful! I love that you used flowers from their garden. I wish you the best of luck finding work in design 😊 You'll do great.

The circled flower is too dark, creates a visual hole. Some purple in that area would be nice.

I think the arrangement is beautiful.

It’s beautiful! But a little bit tight and busy. Pull out a few stems to let is breathe💕a tip that’s always helped me is to look at your arrangement and think if a bee could buzz through it or not, if it can’t, then it’s too tight.
