A KEEPSAKE MADE FROM YOUR DAY

More than flowers under glass.

A wedding bouquet carries more than colour and petals. It remembers the people who stood beside you, the hands that passed it to you, and the small choices that made the day yours. Once the weekend is over, it is hard to know what to do with something that matters that much.

Preservation gives the bouquet a second life. Rather than trying to keep it in a vase until it fades, you can turn it into a finished artwork for your home. The final piece is designed around your own flowers, with room for the shapes, colours, and details that make the memory immediately recognisable.

FROM FRESH BOUQUET TO FRAMED ART

A careful process, shaped around your flowers.

Every bouquet arrives with different varieties, colours, and levels of freshness. Michelle begins by assessing the flowers individually, then chooses the preservation approach that best suits each bloom. Some flowers are pressed for a flat, botanical look; others are dried to hold more of their natural form for a shadow box.

After drying, the strongest flowers are arranged into a new composition. You can include parts of an invitation, ribbon, a photo, or another small wedding detail when it suits the piece. Before the final artwork is fixed in place, Michelle shares the layout for your approval. It is a thoughtful, collaborative step that helps the finished piece feel unmistakably yours.

CHOOSE THE RIGHT HOME FOR YOUR BOUQUET

Built around your flowers, your space, and your story.

There is no one right way to preserve a bouquet. The best piece starts with the flowers you have, the details you want to keep close, and where you picture it living.

01

Floating glass frames

Pressed flowers are arranged between glass for a clean, airy finish. This style works beautifully for bouquets with interesting silhouettes, delicate petals, and invitation details.

02

Shadow boxes

A shadow box gives dimensional flowers, ribbon, moss, and thicker keepsakes room to breathe. It is a natural choice when you want to retain more of a bloom’s original shape.

03

Custom details

Your frame can hold more than flowers. A small photo, a meaningful line from your invitation, or a ribbon from the day can add a quiet layer of recognition without taking over the design.

THE PART THAT MATTERS MOST

Make a plan before the flowers fade.

Fresh flowers are best brought to the studio within three days of the wedding, and sooner is always helpful. Keep the bouquet in water or the refrigerator until it can get to Michelle. Do not freeze it.

If you are planning ahead, reaching out before the wedding gives you time to choose a frame size and talk through any details you may want to include. If the wedding has already happened, get in touch as quickly as you can. Michelle can help you understand the next step for the flowers you have.

QUESTIONS, ANSWERED

Before you hand over your bouquet.

Clear expectations make this sentimental decision easier.

How soon should I bring in my wedding bouquet?+

Bring it in within three days of the wedding, sooner when possible. Keep the stems in water or place the bouquet in the refrigerator, never the freezer, until it reaches the studio.

Can you preserve my whole bridal bouquet?+

Michelle assesses each bouquet bloom by bloom and uses the flowers that are in the best condition for the strongest final composition. A 16 × 20 frame is the popular choice for most full bridal bouquets, while larger pieces give fuller arrangements more room.

Can I include my invitation, ribbon, or other wedding keepsake?+

Yes. Invitation pieces, ribbon, a photo, or small keepsakes can help make the finished artwork feel like your day. A shadow box is a good option when an item needs more depth than a pressed floating frame.

Will I see the layout before it is finished?+

Yes. Michelle shares a photo of the arrangement for your approval before it is fixed in place, so you can request changes while the piece is still in the design stage.

How long does wedding bouquet preservation take?+

The current turnaround is about three to five months. Each bouquet is dried, designed, and finished by hand, and timing can extend during peak wedding season.

Which frame size is right for a wedding bouquet?+

The right scale depends on the volume of your bouquet and the finished look you want. A 10 × 10 or 11 × 14 can suit a smaller selection of blooms or a gift piece. For most full bridal bouquets, the 16 × 20 is the popular choice. An 18 × 24 gives larger arrangements more breathing room. You can compare the available sizes and styles before you book.

What happens if a flower does not preserve perfectly?+

Flowers change throughout the preservation process, and not every bloom arrives in a condition that will create the strongest final artwork. Michelle selects the flowers that preserve best and arranges them into a composition that honours the original bouquet while making the finished piece feel balanced, considered, and lasting.

Is wedding bouquet preservation a good gift?+

A preserved bouquet can be a meaningful anniversary gift, a surprise for a newlywed, or a way to keep flowers from a family member’s wedding close. Because every piece begins with flowers from the day itself, it has the kind of personal connection that a standard gift cannot replicate.

Can you work with flowers from the ceremony or reception too?+

Yes. In addition to a bridal bouquet, couples may bring bridesmaid stems, boutonnières, ceremony flowers, or a few meaningful blooms from the reception. The strongest final piece is not always about including every stem. It is about choosing the flowers and details that best capture the feeling of the celebration and giving them room to be seen.

Do I need to decide on the design before my wedding?+

No. You can begin with the practical plan, getting the bouquet to the studio while it is fresh, then make design choices with more breathing room. If you already have a frame style, size, or keepsake in mind, sharing it early is useful. If you do not, Michelle can help you choose a direction once she sees the flowers.

How should I care for the finished frame?+

Keep your finished artwork away from humidity and direct sunlight. Quality materials and UV-coated glass help minimise fading, although preserved flowers can change slightly over time. Treat it as you would any meaningful piece of framed art: choose a dry spot with gentle light, and let it be part of the room where you will enjoy seeing it.

Can I reserve before I have my flowers?+

Yes. Booking ahead is especially helpful during wedding season, when available studio time can fill quickly. The booking deposit holds your place and gives you a clear plan for the days after the wedding, so you are not trying to make sentimental decisions while also packing up from the celebration.
