Wedding flowers pressed in a frame with a photo.


Q: I am interested in having my wedding flowers pressed in a frame with a photo. However, my bridal bouquet is already dried...the traditional way of letting them air dry. I was wondering if it would still be possible to press them?

A: Depends on how dry and brittle the flowers are. Usually there are inside petals that are supple enough that can be taken and pressed, and designed into a photo frame.

Freeze dried rose petals to put on the bed of our honeymoon suite.


Q: I am very interested in buying freeze dried rose petals to put on the bed of our honeymoon suite, but I do not need 64 cups; I probably will only need about 48 or 50 cups. Is there anyway to place an order other than what is available through the website.


A: Our rose petals are perfect petals and the colors are vivid. You can order any quantity you wish. Please call our toll free number. 1-888-266-5747

Arrangements for preserving a bridal bouquet?

Q. - What arrangements need to be made prior to, or post wedding if a bride wishes to preserve her bridal bouquet?

A. - It is helpful to come in prior to the wedding and pick out the keepsake in which you would like your flowers preserved. Since we need to receive your flowers at least two days after the event, it is necessary to appoint someone to bring us your flowers if you are going on your honeymoon.

Also, after your wedding you should place your flowers in a large plastic bag (i.e. large kitchen trash bag). Blow air into it, since it is the carbon dioxide that keeps the flowers fresh. Twist tie the bag and keep it in the refrigerator until you can bring it to us.. Do not place in the freezer.

For examples of the work that we have done preserving bridal bouquets, be sure to look over our shadow box selection.

More questions and answers about preserving memories with flowers can be found on our web site.

Floral Keepsake Ball preserves family memories of members who have gone.

Since 1982, Florage, has been taking families fresh flowers from the casket spray or other meaningful flowers from a funeral ceremony, preserving them, and creating life-long memories in their shadowbox keepsakes.

Recently, we have created an exciting new product called, The Keepsake Ball. Its popularity has soared since its inception.

A perfect preserved rose or, most any sympathy flower, rests inside a clear Lucite ball, wrapped with elegant gold ribbons, and personalized with a name and date in gold engraving. The floral keepsake Ball celebrates the life of a family member or friend. Families cherish the memories it represents, as the Keepsake Ball, sits on a desk or table, or hangs in a prominent place, with the light delicately glimmering through.
