Flowers may naturally change color in the pressing and drying process.
~ White flowers may develop a cream or ivory tint.
~ Bright pinks can lighten, darken or shift to purple.
~ Blush and dusty pinks can lighten, darken, or shift to light purple
*Some flowers are not suitable for pressing and will not be included in your design (Chrysanthemum, Lilies, some Orchids)
*Your original bouquet composition and amount of greenery will impact the final design. It is recommended to provide additional flowers from the event, if possible, for more variety and options.
*The organic nature of pressed flowers will fade naturally over the years. It is recommended to hang your piece in a location that does not receive direct sunlight.

I wish for your wedding or special event florals to be a long-lasting heirloom that brings you great joy!
The process begins by securing your date (ideally at least 2 months in advance)
I work with individuals hosting weddings/events within the Asheville, North Carolina, area who can provide local drop-off only. Meet-up options with a small travel fee can be discussed for your convenience.
Ensuring your bouquet or other florals are stored in water as soon as possible following the event will result in optimal pressed flowers.
