Did you dry your bouquet yourself?

Have a dried brittle cobweb covered Bouquet laying around? The Bride's Floral Mortician has two solutions for you.

I hear from a lot of people when they learn about Bouquet Preservation services that they had wished it was around when they got married. They dried their flowers, but the quality or color what they had hoped for; the flowers are brittle or covered in cobwebs; the individual is are afraid to breathe or even look at the blossoms.

There are 2 things The Bride's Floral Mortician can do for you.

One. Unfortunately, I can't turn the block back and preserve them for you, but I can cast them in resin now to alleviate the brittleness and cobwebs forming for future enjoyment. For past Client's I have added fresh to the mix of older flowers. Its great to be able to add those pops of color that may not have stayed.

Two. If that doesn't feel like an option, I can teach you how to clean your bouquet properly, so some of the fear or 'ruining' them further is gone.

My tip is to purchase a 3″ chip brush and use a blow dryer on the coolest setting to brush away cobwebs and dust that may collect from time to time.

We recently took a bouquet from a client that had their beloved bouquet sitting on the top of their fridge for eight years. They joked that it was a "lost cause". I was able to clean it, and restore its natural beauty; then place it in resin.
