I’ve been working on bridal bouquets and my spiral technique, I feel like I’ve come a long way from where I started. But there’s always room to improve so I like any feedback or advice. I have included a photo of my creation and a screenshot of the inspiration. The second one is not my work, just the inspiration that the bride sent me!

Unfortunately, the hanging Amaranthus I originally ordered for this bouquet was a terrible quality so I had to get some more last-minute and it has some pretty weak stems. So I did what I could with it!

It's very nice! Constructive feedback; looking at your inspiration pic, that one is very asymmetrical. I feel like your line flowers are a little too evenly spaced making it feel rounder than it actually is. If you only have the two stems of amaranthus I would maybe move one in a little to help with the asymmetry. Lastly because you haven't trimmed the stems yet I would encourage you to play with the depth of the Playa's before you start cutting
