Every flower preserves differently. Even the same flower can have a different outcome depending on the state it arrived in when we received it. Here's a flower by flower guide describing how your preserved wedding flowers could turn out, along with tips for keeping them preservable.

PRO TIP: Use Hawaiian Mist spray on your flowers throughout your wedding weekend. This will help keep them hydrated.
Alstroemeria
Presses to a more translucent version of its fresh state. Maintains color pretty well, presses flat showing a profile view of the flower.
Amaranthus
Presses great! Maintains color well, looks pretty much the same as it did fresh just flat.
Anemone
Presses beautifully if it is in one piece when we receive it. The flower petals tend to fall off before the flower makes it to us, leaving us with just the center of the flower. Do not throw your bouquet if this flower is in it! This would be a great flower to send extras of. White anemones tend to need a lot of color enhancement. Purple and blue anemones preserve similarly in color to how they looked fresh, but slightly darker.
Anthurium
These appear almost exactly as they did when they were fresh, pressed. Bright green anthurium are difficult to color match since most flowers press to a darker shade from when they were fresh but the shape of these when preserved is stunning. Keep anthurium bridal bouquets out of the fridge. These tropicals prefer warmer temperatures.
Aster
Montecasino asters are pressed in a profile view. Asters tend to lose distinction in their color between the green of the stem and foliage, and the flower itself when preserved.
Matsumoto asters press very well in portrait view and maintain their color almost identically to how it looked fresh.
Astilbe
Looks very similar to how it was fresh, astilbe tends to lose its color and require color enhancement but that isn't a concern since color enhancement is included with every one of our orders!
Babies Breath
She's a classic and presses to look just as it did when fresh. Pressed in profile. The stems between the flowers will not be as green as when they were fresh but the white flowers will be almost just as bright.
Billy Balls
Also referred to as craspedia, these bright yellow ball shaped thistle press to 1/4-1/2" thick if they were live when used in your bouquet. If the dried version was used in your bouquet, these will not press flat. Our frames have a 3/4" rabbet so most of the time we can still fit these in your frame. Color preserves similarly to its fresh state.
Calla Lilly
2026 most popular flower! Callas can be tricky to press but their color comes out beautifully, but slightly darker than when fresh. They resemble a similar shape when pressed.
Campanula
This flower appears less delicate and airy when pressed. Still beautiful, just thicker and fuller since multiple layers of petals are being compounded. If it arrives to us moldy it may not be preservable.
