The Instructions to prepare your bouquet and ship it to me are as follows:

Kelly Bride, The Bride's Floral Mortician, opening a received Bouquet for Preservation

1 Place the stems in a wet paper towel and secure with a plastic bag

This will keep moisture in the stems for as long as possible.

2 Place a plastic bag over the top of the bouquet

This will keep the moisture in the blossoms for as long as possible.

3 Provide plenty of wrapping material around it

When the bouquet is placed in the box, place wrapping material around it so it does not flop from side to side. Allow extra padding on the top of the bouquet so that the canopy is secure.

4 Text Me

When steps 1-3 are done, text me and let me know the dimensions of the box and weight. I will send a prepaid shipping label you will need to print out and attach to the box. I receive discounted rates and will pass along the rate to you.

5 Drop it off at UPS

Drop off the Box; taped up with the label on the outside of the box. What's left is up to UPS and Me.

I prefer to receive the bouquets as soon as possible. Of course, flowers are a perishable product and time is of the essence. Monday/Tuesday following the event is preferred.

I cant wait to start preserving your bouquet and move on to creating your personal design!
