Bouquet Preservation »

The first time you see your wedding bouquet is on the day and it will be beautiful and fragile and romantic to carry your flowers down the aisle. What a pity to throw such a wonderful piece of work away and how marvellous that you can have it preserved and keep it in your home for many years to come.

Planning Ahead

Just get in touch with us directly on 01206 251693 or email us or by completing the Booking and Deposit form below

If you book in advance we will send you a cooler box for shipping the bouquet and inside we will place all the information you will need for the person who packs up the bouquet after the wedding. For all the last minute bookings you will need to use your own box see packaging advise below. You may leave it until after the wedding to decide to have your bouquet preserved, especially if you have fallen in love with your flowers on the day.

When we receive the bouquet it will be photographed and placed in a freezer to keep the flowers "frozen in time". Later it will be transferred to a state of the art computer driven machine. This machine slowly takes out the frozen moisture from the flowers.

We then recreate the bouquet placing it into your chosen frame or encasement. Some samples and ideas are shown on our Photo Gallery page. These are divided into our Modern, Contemporary or Traditional styles.

Deciding after the wedding

You will need a good strong cardboard box to pack the flowers in and surround them with scrunched up tissue paper or even newspaper so that they are not moving about in transit. Do not add water. Your name and address should be inside and our name and address on the outside of the box. Mark the box lid with "2kg" then we will book the courier for you.

We use a courier service to pick up anywhere in the country and also in Ireland so that the flowers arrive here as quickly as possible and therefore in the best condition. The flowers are returned to you by courier when the work is complete.

If you live near enough you are very welcome to pop in to see us.

You can also post your own box to us using the next day by 1pm Royal mail delivery service.

A Booking Deposit of £75.00 is made initially. When we are at the stage of making up the bouquet into a frame or container the whole balance becomes due.

We do not undertake to return the flowers without them being inside a container or picture frame

Please see the Terms and Conditions Page for additional important points about our service and the freeze-drying process.

Testimonials

Hello Angela,

I just wanted to let you know that my sister and her husband loved the bouquet. It looks brilliant ! 

Thank you very much.

All the best,
Lucy  (March 2011}


Just to say thank you the bouquet arrived today and it is beautiful. we are delighted with it you have done a great job. if you want me to leave any review please contact me as i cant praise you enough. when I asked the florist if she knew of any company at the time she said that it would cost £1000 or more to preserve a bouquet so i wasn't sure what to expect for such a great price. Again many thanks
