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!
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 . . . .
