Wedding Questions & Answers
Q. How soon after the wedding do you need my wedding flowers ?
A. As soon as possible - the next day is ideal BUT usually we can still work with the flowers even if a few days old
Q. How do we look after them overnight ?
A. Keep the flowers cool (but not as cold as a fridge) - cool room, boot of car, garage, temperature. If bouquet is hand tied stems may be put in water. DO NOT SPRAY WITH WATER
Q. Will my flowers dry exactly the same colour as they are ?
A. Generally yes but there can be a marginal colour change in certain flowers e.g. red roses deepen to claret - please ask for further details
Q. Will you collect my flowers ?
A. No, but we can arrange for a courier to uplift them if no one is available to deliver them to us, but ONLY from a Hotel within an approx 25 Mile radius
Q. Do I choose my frame & design before the wedding ?
A. No - decisions on frame and design can be made a month after the wedding, when preservation is complete.

A. Pressed flowers result in a completely flat picture. Dried flowers are dried whole and are therefore 3D & can be displayed in a box frame.
