Why not consider framing your dried wedding flowers in a picture frame or shadow box. The result is a stunning piece of home decor that preserves the beauty of your bouquet. Pressing flowers is a simple yet effective way to achieve this. Place your flowers between the pages of a book, stack more books on top, and in about two weeks, your flowers will be beautifully dried and flattened. To add a personal touch, include other keepsakes from your special event, such as ticket stubs or small photos. Hang the frame on your wall or place it on a desk or table, allowing you to admire your bouquet for years to come.

The possibilities are endless, allowing you to express your creativity and transform your wedding flowers into a unique piece of decor that captures the essence of your special day.
