The Wedding Jeannie’s Fall Preservation Series Continues with Flower Preservation, Suspended in Time!

This week we chat with Rachelle Adams of Suspended in Time, a company that has been preserving flowers for over 15 years. Many brides only think about preserving the dress, but do not realize they can hold on to their wedding day memories by preserving their flowers too! There are many preservation options, including complete restoration, drying, and encasing. Suspended in Time uses an especially unique process because they do not freeze dry flowers, therefore the process takes 3-5 days to finish whereas freeze-dried flowers take weeks.

Rachelle will tell us all about their special preservation process, how to take care of your flowers before you get them preserved, and much, much more!

The Wedding Jeannie Continues with an Introduction to the Preservation Series!

 

This week we will chat about some important things that often go under the radar - flower preservation and post-event dress care. Many people don't think about what to do with their flowers, especially their bridal bouquet, after the ceremony, or even after the entire event. Should reception flowers be used for a post-wedding brunch the next day? Can they or should they be donated?  The same goes for dresses; after the Big Day, how do you care for your dress? Where and how are they stored? Where are they cleaned? We will tell you some of our favorite tips and tricks to make your flowers last, and then we will hear from some of the best dry cleaners on ways to keep your dress looking pristine long after your wedding!
