My floral preservation is going to cost more than my bo-k!

But I think I'm going to love it! I'm going to have to wait 8-12 weeks though But at least that means I have wedding fun to look forward to in 3 months

I went with a 12x16 shadowbox with a boquet resemblance from the side. It also has our invitation and my DH's boutineer. Silver beaded frame, and toupe silk lining.

I'm not sure. I went with keepsake floral. I had gotten the kit to send it out before the wedding. So I just kept it in water until the Monday after the wedding, and then packaged it up and sent it overnight. I talked to the woman today when I was deciding on the design, and she said it came in beautiful, a little wilted...but that is to be expected. So a few flowers have to be replaced, but most were fine.

That sounds EXACTLY like mine, except I had lavender silk!!! What size was your frame? Since I had a cascading boK, and included my tiara, invite and garter, they had to use 16 x 20. It cost a sick amount of money, but it is sooooooo pretty!!!
