Less expensive options of preserving your bouquet?

[minniebride]

I was originally thinking I would not want to keep it after the wedding, but I'm now thinking I might regret not keeping it.

I can only afford to spend between $100-$200 to preserve it.

What are my options and how do I go about doing it?

Thanks!

I don't know about floral preservation but do know that some brides opt to get their wedding bouquets redone in silk flowers so they can keep them forever.

Ooh, where would I look to do something like that?

http://www.wedideas.com/ seems to do really pretty work with natural touch flowers. But I do hear people complaining of them being slow pretty often.

Thank you!!! I'm not in a rush, as long as I know that they pull through with great quality in the end.

Any other companies that get rave reviews? I'm really interested in doing this! Is the price alot cheaper than getting flowers preserved?

My bouquet will be Round handheld mixed bouquet with lavender hydrangea, lavender roses, lambs ear with full stem wrap of white satin

IF you could get your bouquet to wherever it is you live you can DIY this sort of thing. its some kind of fine crystals that you put the bouquet into that preserves it.

i relied on my photos because the cost and hassle and where on earth would i put them?? anyways, happy deciding!!

Sounds great but I"m just not that talented!! I am curious about the silk bouquet re-creation. I emailed the company to see if they carry my flowers and am awaiting to hear back.

If anyone has any other websites that will do the silk flower re-creation of a wedding bouquet, please let me know!!
