When to Preserve Your Wedding Bouquet: Why Booking Early Matters
Your wedding bouquet is more than a beautiful detail — it’s part of your story. It’s in your aisle photos, held during your vows, and carried into your first moments as newlyweds. So it’s no surprise that more brides are choosing to preserve their bouquet in resin and turn those blooms into a timeless heirloom.
What many couples don’t realize is this:
Flower preservation begins before the wedding — and booking early makes all the difference.
Planning ahead ensures your flowers stay fresh and gives you guaranteed space on our preservation calendar, which fills quickly during peak wedding seasons.
Why Timing Matters
Fresh flowers are delicate, and their condition starts changing immediately after your celebration. The sooner they are handled, the better the end result.
Booking early helps ensure:
Flowers are preserved at their peak
Guaranteed spot on the schedule
Time for custom design planning
Priority drying and handling
Unlike digital photos or wedding albums, bouquet preservation cannot be done weeks later — the work starts right away.
When to Book
To secure the best availability and results, brides should reserve their preservation:
6–12 months before the wedding
This gives you:
Calendar priority
Design style flexibility
Bouquet selection guidance
Last-minute wedding or your wedding already happened?
Sometimes we can accommodate shorter timelines — and if your wedding has already passed, don’t worry!
As long as we receive your flowers quickly, we can still take them and preserve your bouquet beautifully. Reach out as soon as possible to check availability.
What You Get When You Book Early
Securing your date early gives you a smooth, personalized experience:
Reserved preservation date
Design consultation to personalize your piece
Flower care guidance
Drop-off and handling instructions
Option to add matching keepsake pieces (coasters, jewelry, etc.)
When your wedding day arrives, you’ll already have a plan in place — no scrambling or stress.
Avoid These Common Mistakes
Many brides don’t realize how quickly flowers change after a wedding. Avoid:
❌ Waiting until after the wedding to inquire
✅ Reserve as soon as you confirm your date
❌ Storing flowers incorrectly
✅ Keep in water — not the refrigerator
❌ Not assigning someone to deliver the bouquet
✅ Give drop-off instructions to a trusted friend or family member
A little preparation ensures your blooms stay gorgeous and ready for preservation.
Bouquet Preservation Timeline for Brides
To make sure your flowers look their best and your preservation goes smoothly, here’s a simple timeline to follow:
During Engagement:
Begin researching preservation artists and decide what style you love.
6–12 Months Before the Wedding:
Reserve your preservation date and pay your deposit to secure your spot.
1 Month Before the Wedding:
Confirm your bouquet details and review drop-off instructions so everything is planned in advance.
Wedding Week:
Assign a trusted person (maid of honor, family member, planner) to be responsible for your bouquet after the celebration.
Wedding Day:
Keep your bouquet hydrated as long as possible — it helps keep the blooms vibrant for preservation.
After the Wedding:
Drop off your bouquet quickly so it can be dried at its freshest point.
With a little planning ahead, your flowers can be transformed into a keepsake that lasts forever instead of fading away.
