Waterford Past-Thymes has been pressing and preserving flowers for twelve years using the most DEPENDABLE and RELIABLE method of flower preservation.
We prepare the flowers with a process that presses and preserves the flowers, but most importantly, this process destroys any organisms that could harm the color or integrity of the flower. We neither need nor use any chemicals or additives.

BRIDAL BOUQUET PRESERVATION

Your wedding flowers are photographed on arrival, so they can be reproduced as closely as possible to the shape of your bouquet, if that is your wish. (One may also opt to have their wedding flowers surround their invitation or photo OR have their flowers artistically arranged "freestyle".) The flowers are arranged on foam-board covered with a layer of batting, your choice of material and frame, then sealed completely to preserve their continued splendor.

THE PROCESS:

After the flowers are preserved and ready to frame, (about 2 weeks) we loosely lay your flowers out in the arrangement, on the fabric, and in the frame you’ve specified, (however, we usually lay out other options, as well, because VERY often the bride changes her frame/fabric/arrangement decision when she has a visual image in front of her). Each presentation is then photographed and emailed to you. (We refer to this as the ‘DEMO” stage.) These digital images are VERY rough drafts! This is to further insure your preservation is perfect for YOU. When we receive the final approval for the specified chosen arrangement, we begin the final construction. The balance is due upon completion and your preservation is shipped to you free of charge via UPS.

ENHANCEMENTS/ALL OCCASION FLOWER PRESERVATION

Your special occasion flowers or our supply of pressed flowers can be artisically arranged to enhance your mementos, according to your personal preferences. Or you may decide to have your special occasion flowers preserved and framed ALONE as a lifetime rememberance of a time gone by. Our design consultant will help you with this, if need be.
