When your mother-in-law saves your bouquet to surprise you with a keepsake… you know you’ve won the family lottery. 🤍

A beautiful bouquet of classic whites, soft lavender, and wispy greens.

What a beautiful surprise for a bride to receive a piece of her wedding day she never knew was being saved for her. A gift filled with so much thought, love, and meaning. I’m so happy to play a small part in creating these meaningful gifts. 🤍

Natalie’s bouquet was made entirely of calla lilies, and we chose to leave the flowers completely natural, without color enhancement, to honor the subtle changes that happened through the preservation process.

Flowers change with time. So do we. I love the quiet symbolism of those changes—a little reflection of the seasons we move through.

This was also such a fun design challenge. With only calla lilies to work with, I loved finding ways to showcase each bloom from different angles and let their natural shape shine.

Stunning bouquet by in KY

I had the incredible honor of creating a keepsake for someone who means so much to me and to our community. 🤍

Katie designed her own stunning bouquet, and getting to preserve it for her felt especially meaningful.

Katie has been such an inspiration to me and, even more so, to my children. Through her non-profit, she has shown them what it looks like to lead with compassion and make a real difference, fighting food insecurity at the grassroots level.

I’m so grateful to call her a friend. Getting to preserve these flowers for her is something I’ll always treasure. 🤍

NEW OFFERING: OVAL FRAMES 🤍

When one of our brides had her heart set on an oval frame, we made it happen.

We’re so happy to have found an incredible supplier who custom makes these frames to order—and I truly can’t get enough of them.

A little unexpected, a little timeless, and such a beautiful way to preserve your flowers.

Oval frames are now available for custom orders. ✨
