While we strive to recreate the bouquet as accurately as possible, the final look of the pressed flower frame may differ slightly from the original bouquet due to the nature of the pressing process. The colors and textures of the preserved flowers may vary slightly as they are dried and flattened. However, we will work with you to create a beautiful and unique piece that captures the essence of your special bouquet. If you have any specific requests or concerns, please let us know and we will do our best to accommodate them.

Flowers will continue to fade over their lifetime. The more your frame is exposed to sunlight, the quicker fading will occur. Your frame WILL fade, but keeping it out of sunlight will slow down the process.

We understand that shipping your bridal bouquet to us for preservation can be stressful, but with proper packaging, it can be a breeze.

Here are some tips on how to package your bouquet:

1. The first step is to remove any accessories or decorations from the bouquet. This includes any ribbons, pins, or jewelry.

2. Wrap the bouquet stems in wet paper towels.

3. Place the bouquet in a sturdy box. You can use a regular cardboard box. Make sure it is sturdy and large enough to accommodate the bouquet.

4. Fill any gaps in the box with crumpled paper towels or tissue paper to prevent the bouquet from shifting during transit.

5. Seal the box with packing tape and label it "fragile" to ensure that it is handled with care during shipping. Once your bouquet arrives, we will carefully preserve it to ensure that it looks beautiful for years to come.

If you have any questions or concerns about shipping your bouquet to us, please don't hesitate to contact us.
