Drying Bouquets

rachelk456

Did anyone have their bouquets dried to preserve them? Did you go some where to have it done, or do it yourself? I remember my friend's sister did it herself years ago and she had to take apart the bouquet then put it back together. Does anyone know if this is necessary no matter how you dry them? I am having my veil custom made and I am deciding whether to ask for extra lace to use on my bouquet. The lace is kinda expensive though so I can only justify buying it if I know I will be able to preserve the bouquet. Thanks!

Brothers ex just got married and preserved her flowers. I'll ask her where she got it done, they look great from the FB pictures.

This is the info. she gave me:

"I got mine preserved by Jennifer Anne Designs & Favor Event. She is super nice and does a great job! She does it in all kinds of different ways and it ranges in price but for what I had done it was in the $400 range.
Here is her number if she wants to set something up to go take a look at what she does.
302-475-6424"

I am going to go here http://www.eternalblossom.com/home.html

I will only be doing a few flowers though, not the whole bouquet as that takes a lot more room.  I Will have a shadowbox with my invite and a few flowers, will look cute.

Is this the one Erin Proud recommends... I managed to lose that business card AGAIN... I was going to email her and ask... but you might have saved me the trouble

Yay I am glad I posted about it   This one is near my house, so thats why I am going there, and a girl that used Erin told me about it, so thats probably why she knows about this place too
