I'm not doing it. I was planning on keeping some of the flowers in my guest matt picture frame at the bottom. I think it's really up to you if it's worth spending the money and how much you REALLY want it.

A friend of mine did it and put it in her bathroom and it looks really nice. Either which way I don't think it is the most important thing to do.

If I have extra money at the end, I would like to do it.

Otherwise, I'll hang it upside down and pray for the best.

Keepsake Floral, a vendor on this site, offers Jewelry boxes that are a glass dome on top and it holds some of your preserved wedding flowers. I just checked the price and a 5x7 box is $195, so not too bad. They also have 8x10 and another larger size. At least this way, it's something useful as well as a momento.

Re: Keepsake Floral???

Honestly...what I would suggest is simply re-creating your bouquet with silk flowers - then at least you can put them somewhere in your home as decoration - that's what my girlfriend did. You florist would likely be able to do it and it would cost a lot less money:) Just a suggestion
