Creative Ideas Wanted: BoK Preservation Help!

i sent my BoK in to be preserved right after the wedding. Since they are usually so busy during the summer, it took awhile for my appt to come, but on Monday they will give me a call and discuss with me what, if anything, i would like to add inside the case it will be displayed in.

It will be a shadowbox type ting and you can put anything you want in there.
I had a large cascade BoK. I was thinking maybe something like this?

i'm pretty sure i want to add my invite in there. anything else you girls can think of?

if not i can go all alone with just a BoK for something like this?

I did this one and it looks GREAT!!!

Re: Creative Ideas Wanted: BoK Preservation Help!

Mine is getting preserved as we speak. I opted for just my bouquet in an oval frame bc i saw my friends and I think it is just so elegant and classy to have the bouquet alone...but its personal taste.

The site I am getting mine through shows them with the invitation, a photo of the couple, the cake topper, a garter...

take a look

i think i'm leaning towards getting one inside of an oval case. I love the way some of these look but all of them are the smaller round BoK's, not like my cascade so i don't know if it would be too much to add my invite and DH's bot too

i'm assuming that it has already dried up...you could contact one of these companies and see if you could still use it...they might be able to put something together for you!

I think there is on of the sites that makes jewelry out of your Bo-k, I believe it is the site that Maire used. I'm using them as well and remember the lady saying something about that

Re: Creative Ideas Wanted: BoK Preservation Help!

I left my BOK inside my bookcase before leaving for the honeymoon. By the time we got back 2 weeks later, it was all dried up, dust on it and something growing on it lol Oops.

I love the one frame w/ the flowers in it

Re: Creative Ideas Wanted: BoK Preservation Help!

My mom took my bouquet to the cemetary for my grandparents. Looking at these, I wish I kept it, but I didn't even know they were possible! Everyone raved about my bouquet...oh well, at least I have the pictures!
