In most cases, this is totally fine. I love working with clients who have held onto their special florals for several years in hopes of doing something with them one day.
About 20% of flowers I receive have been previously dried. Fill out my contact form (enter contact form link here when website is live) and I can help guide you on our options.
There are several different ways to complete preservation. However, each style is professionally and uniquely picked based off of the item I am making, including the type of flower as well.
For the majority of orders a 3-6 month turnaround time due to high-demand and a careful detailed multistep process that cannot be rushed. I promise, it will be worth it!
I recommend booking floral preservation as soon as (or even before) you secure your florist. The sooner the better. Especially if your wedding is in the super busy months of May, June, September, or October. That way I have plenty of time to prep preservation materials, reserve your date range with materials & prep supplies based off items wanted.
Due to being high-demand, I book up several months in advance. If you know preservation is something you are wanting, please do not wait! This also allows you time to budget, decide on items and have plenty of time to prepare shipping, pre-schedule bouquet delivery, etc. Pre-planning makes the entire process much easier.
You have the option to donate your remaining dried flowers to a project of items I make that will be donated to Betty’s Brave and Beautiful Hearts Foundation. This non-profit supports Kentucky women who are currently battling cancer. Instead of any tips, I kindly ask that you donate towards this amazing cause.
You can also keep, (if any) remaining flowers by request only.
