Here are our favorite fresh flower combinations you can confidently try in your DIY bouquet, all available at AtFleurs.

1. Roses & Baby’s Breath – A Classic That Never Fails

You can never go wrong with this timeless duo. Red, blush, or white roses paired with delicate baby’s breath create a soft, romantic feel that works for any occasion—from weddings to anniversaries to "just because." Add a few green leaves like eucalyptus or ruscus, and it becomes picture perfect.

3. Sunflowers & White Roses – Bright and Cheerful

This combination brings warmth and joy. Sunflowers bring a pop of sunshine, while white roses tone it down with elegance. Together, they strike a beautiful balance of cheer and calm perfect for birthdays, housewarmings, or get well soon gifts.

4. Orchids & Chrysanthemums – A Touch of the Exotic

Orchids add exotic charm, while chrysanthemums bring volume and lasting freshness. Use shades like purple, white, or yellow for a bold yet graceful statement. This pairing looks beautiful in both hand-tied bouquets and designer boxes.
