The process of drying and pressing flowers is intricate, delicate, and time-intensive, and cannot be rushed. Each bloom is pressed individually over the course of several weeks, after which your bouquet is thoughtfully reconstructed and designed. During our peak summer wedding season, this process typically takes 5–7 months. You will receive an email notification once your floral keepsake is ready for pickup.

As flowers are pressed and preserved, their colors may shift subtly — a natural and beautiful part of the floral preservation process. Soft pinks may deepen into richer tones, while whites may warm into creamy or light beige hues. Over time, gentle fading can occur; to help preserve their beauty, we recommend keeping your piece out of direct sunlight and away from highly humid environments. Each flower presses uniquely, resulting in a one-of-a-kind artwork to be cherished for years to come.
