Ok, so I wouldn't be able to afford Keepsake Floral and I know there have been problems lately...
I have just decided to go with this company/studio who I found through my bridal salon where I got my dress and my mom's dress.
Anyway, I talked to the owner today and she seems great! First off, the prices are way lower than Keepsake Floral. The only thing is, she doesn't really do the traditional thing with preservation. She actually makes the bouquet more of an artpiece. I actually really like this. It's different. She asks for $100 deposit which I will give next week. I am going to either Fedex or UPS my bouquet to her from the Boardwalk Business Center the day after my weddding.
Here is her website. She is currently updating it and will have the new one up in a couple of weeks. As of now, there are only 4 pics of the Wedding Floral Preservation. There is also another option she told me about which is even cheaper than what is listed on the website.
This lady teaches papermaking at the Botanical Gardens here in NYC. So I feel I can trust her and she knows what she is doing...
Here is her website: www.paperbynatureonline.com
Her name is Maria. I will of course let you know how mine turn out and as we work together on the design, but it your'e looking for something different and not as expensive (but she also does pieces that are larger and therefore more $), you might want to check her out...
