No help either...I actually threw my actual bouquet! The throwaway was pink peonies and orchids and I loved it, so I kept it...my bouquet will forever live in pictures. Sorry, no help either!

<------------------------------My bouquet!

Mine was practically dead before the night was over so it went in the garbage the next morning.

Sorry, mine didn't dry nicely, so I threw it out. I did pull some of the flowers and saved them in a small box, along with the ribbon.

Mine didn't dry nicely either so I'm just going to put in a bag and pack it away. I don't have the heart to throw it out.

my mom dried and preserved a few of my calla lilies for me, and im going to make a shadow box with my invitation. its actually easy to preserve the flowers yourself...you can buy the stuff to do it at Michaels.

mine died during our honeymoon, and the pple I left it with didnt think to even TRY to preserve it. I tried to press some flowers, but they got moldy. Oh well, I have pics

Mine has been in the freezer since the wedding!!! I wanted to pu tit in a shadow box, but i think it may be too late for that.....I must say though it's still in good shape--it doesn't look dead @ all----going on 10 months!!!

Mine didn't dry well. I have a few roses in a zip lock in my guest book. I don't have the heart to through it out either.

I am going to try to salvage something, but most of it got moldy . . . .
