If you have a dried wedding bouquet, there are several ways to preserve it and turn it into a beautiful keepsake. Here are some options:

1. Resin Petal Confetti Keepsakes: You can work with a preservation shop to turn your dried petals into petal confetti, which is then artfully sprinkled throughout resin coasters, a resin serving tray, or resin display tray to preserve the sentiment of your special day.

2. Air-Dry: Another simple way to preserve your wedding bouquet is to let it air-dry. You can arrange the dried flowers in a vase or create a wreath with them.

3. Archival-Quality Shadow Box: You can preserve your dried bouquet in an archival-quality shadow box for years to come. After talking with the preservation shop, they will create a unique piece for you.

4. Pressing: You can press your dried flowers and frame them or create a scrapbook with them. You can use a DIY flower pressing kit or have a professional do it for you.

5. Microwave Drying: For a speedier drying process, you could microwave your wedding bouquet flowers. Quick and easy to do, however, it’s unlikely you’ll be able to keep your whole bouquet and results can vary.

6. Baking: On low heat, and with careful guidance, you can bake flowers in your oven to dry them out. You will need to think about taking the stems off and just using individual flower heads though. Again, you won’t be able to keep your bouquet intact, but it should be a fairly quick and easy process.

7. Potpourri: You can create potpourri with your dried flowers. Bake the flowers at 200 F degrees for 1-2 hours until they are fully dehydrated. To enhance the scent, add a few drops of your preferred essential oil and gently toss and allow to soak for a couple of weeks. For an extra luxurious feel, add some dried orange peel, cloves, cinnamon sticks, and dried lavender. Ensure you keep your potpourri in an airtight container so you can preserve every bit of that gorgeous scent.

8. Illustration/Painting: You can have your wedding bouquet illustrated or painted by a professional artist.

9. Photography: Ensure your wedding bouquet is photographed by a professional photographer.

10. Display Your Wedding Invite: Using dried flowers in a blank frame is a gorgeous way to frame and display your wedding invite for all to see.

11. Wreath: You can create a wreath with your dried flowers.

Regardless of which option you choose, your wedding flowers deserve to be cherished for years to come, regardless if your wedding happened 10 years ago or last weekend!
