There are several ways to preserve your wedding bouquet, depending on your preference and the type of flowers you have. Here are some options:

1. Hang it upside down to dry: Hang the bouquet upside down in a dry, dark spot where it wont be disturbed, like a guest room closet or kitchen pantry. Leave the bouquet hanging for several weeks until its completely dry.

2. Press the flowers: Pressing the flowers is a great way to preserve them and create a keepsake. Trim away unwanted parts such as the stem, leaves, or any parts that are discolored. Place your flowers as flat as possible on parchment paper inside the pages of a weighted hardback and let time work its magic. About seven to 10 days should do the trick, however gently keep an eye.

3. Create a DIY floral bath soak: Add the petals to homemade candles, creating a DIY floral bath soak.

4. Make homemade potpourri: You can also make homemade potpourri with your wedding bouquet. Simply dry the flowers and mix them with your favorite herbs and spices.

5. Create a gallery wall: Dont just leave it stuck in a drawer or your memory box. Using dried flowers in a blank frame is a gorgeous way to frame and display your wedding invite for all to see.

6. Fine Art Flatlay Photography: Take a photo of your bouquet and have it turned into a beautiful piece of art.

7. Watercolor Bouquet Art: Have a watercolor artist create a one-of-a-kind work of art to treasure.

8. Embroidery Bouquet Heirloom: Send off your bouquet image to an embroidery artist to have them hand-stitch a precious textile heirloom to treasure and display.

9. Resin Encased: Preserve your bouquet in acrylic.

Its important to note that with most wedding bouquet preservation options, you won’t be able to keep the entire bouquet intact, unless you dry the entire arrangement as-is. Otherwise, you’ll need to separate the flowers to keep them as fresh as possible.
