bok question

What did you do with it after the wedding. I didn't have time preserve it. Right now it is sitting in my fridge.

Re: bok question

I hung it upside down and sprayed it with hairspray for about a month. Right now it's all dried up, but perfectly intact, so I have it in my china cabinet with other things from the wedding.

I hung it upside down and dried it for about 6 months and sprayed it with hair spray. It is not sitting in a vase on shelf in my bedroom.

Re: bok question

I had my Nanny's roasry beads wrapped around my bouquet and my wedding band was her wedding band, I'm also named after her and planned our wedding to coincide with my Nanny and Poppa's wedding anniversary...after the wedding, my mom took my bouquet to Nanny and Poppa's graves and laid it there. I have so many pictures of it that I didn't need it laying around...besides it was too big to dry!

Re: bok question

Unfortunately mine took a nasty tumble out of my limo bus on the way back to the hotel so it was laid to rest in the bridal suite garbage can lol. Hopefully one day I can get one replicated and preserved. But I would have tried to dry it if i could have.

Re: bok question

i had mine preserved through Floral Keepsake. It cost me about $900 but it was so worth it!
