Bouquet Preservation
We turn your special blooms into beautiful, everlasting keepsakes!
Each stem is carefully handled during the preservation processes. The flowers are tidied, dried and/or pressed and then designed onto your selected frame. Each frame is uniquely created and transformed into a gorgeous new art form. No step can be rushed and they have various completion times. Our focus is on preserving your special flowers, its texture and shape. As it is a natural product, we cannot preserve the colour to last forever or determine how long the colours keep, as nature does age. What we do is extend the enjoyment of your vibrant bouquet as it was on your wedding day before it transforms into its permanent vintage, nostalgic look. We love this process and that's part of what makes it so special! If you love the transformation too, then this is for you!
Please note the frames we use are the best commercial frames currently available, however they are not custom-made frames. As such, there may be common imperfections that come with the commercial frame territory that is beyond our control—even though we do our best to provide excellent quality. Please get in touch if you would like to have a custom-made frame for preservation. Please be aware that this will increase the price.
