I love the idea of gifting the florals so they can continue to bring joy to someone else . Have a wrapping station set up so your guests can take them at the end of the night .

Hi There,

There are so many ways to share the beautiful flowers with others after your wedding is over. You can have a flower wrapping station where the guests can take a bunch from the table or the bouquets and wrap them up to take home safely. You can donate them to a hospital or nursing home, this is something I love to do or your family and friends can just simply take them home straight from the vase. Hope this helps.

Hello! 

Lots of things you can do with them. 

You can keep your personal flowers for yourself, you can place them upside down and dried them. 

If you have a lot of flowers you can simply and beautifully donate them to the hospital or the age care centre, that’s what I do with my left over flowers or if a bride give them back to me . If any of your guests wish them you can also present them as gifts. Good luck with your wedding!

Hi there, We wanted to give brides the opportunity to be able to keep their bouquets and enjoy them for much longer, which inspired  us to offer “real look alike” artificial flowers. Brides often use  them after to decorate their homes and / or give them to a special person as a thank you. As there is no maintenance on our range, they maintain their beauty to enjoy for many years. It’s another alternative to fresh that you may want to explore.

Some options can include gifting them to guests, drying your bouquet to keep (depending on the flowers) or organising with your florist to deliver them to either the hospital or a nursing home close by.

You have many options, Today I offer a complimentry throw to every bride,  Some brides give their bouquet to someone very special as a thank you, You can have them Freeze dried by some experts who actually frame them in a 3D frame.  If your bouquet is a natural stem clip the end of the stems & place in a vase of water, they will last the same a bunch of flowers. If structurd (wired) keep them moist by mist spray water helps to keep them fresh for a few days.   Never make the mistake of putting them into the freezer.

Hang you bridal bouquet upside down in a cool dark and dry place to dry it

Have centerpieces that are easy to be taken home by your guests. Some florists such as myself would be happy to provide wrapping paper and twine for this purpose.
