Flower Preservation Services & Process

Your wedding bouquet carries so many memories. We’ll preserve your wedding bouquet and turn it into custom floral art you can display and enjoy for generations.

Looking for bridal party gifts? We can also press and frame bridesmaid bouquets, boutonnieres, corsages, and any other wedding flowers. Add your invitation, save-the-date, photos, ribbon, or fabric from the dress to make your keepsake even more personal.

Losing someone you love is never easy. Preserving the flowers from their service gives your family a beautiful, lasting way to remember them.

We can preserve funeral flowers from any arrangement, including sprays, casket flowers, and sympathy arrangements. Fresh, colorful blooms press best. Ask about our bereavement packages, including options for multiple family members.

Have another moment worth remembering? We preserve flowers from anniversaries, baby showers, graduations, birthdays, baptisms, Bar and Bat Mitzvahs, and more.

1. Consultation
We’ll talk through your vision by phone, video, or in person. Consultations are included with every order.

2. Get Your Flowers to Us
Bring or ship your flowers to us as soon as possible after your event. (See “Getting Your Flowers to Us” below.)

3. Photograph
When your flowers arrive, we photograph the arrangement so we can recreate its original shape and style.

4. Press
Each flower is pressed by hand using a chemical-free method that protects it from mold and moisture damage.

5. Color Restore
Once dry, we carefully paint each flower to restore its original color and keep it from fading or browning over time.

6. Design Drafts
We test different frames, colors, and backgrounds with your flowers, then email you photos of several layouts. You choose your favorite or request changes. To protect your delicate flowers, we recommend no more than 6 drafts.

7. Your Finished Keepsake
Most pieces are finished in about 6 to 8 weeks, depending on size and detail. Local clients pick up in person. For everyone else, we ship your piece back fully insured, at no cost to you.

Fresh flowers make the best keepsakes, so timing matters. Get your flowers to us the day after your event if you can, and no later than 3 to 5 days after. We’re not able to preserve dried flowers.

The night of your event: Place your flowers in fresh water in the front of your refrigerator. Keep any ribbon out of the water.

Local drop-off: Call or text (919) 752-7188 to schedule a drop-off at our Zebulon studio, just outside Raleigh.
