About Wedding Flower Preservation
When working with Bouquet & Frame, all prices are determined by the frame type and size. The number of flowers that go into the frame and the style of composition are entirely up to you. Scroll down to see the size and design options!
Pressed Frames
When ordering a pressed frame, your flowers will be transformed into 2-D recreations of your flowers. Your flowers will be paper-thin. Your blooms will be taken apart, dehydrated, and then the flowers will be reconstructed to resemble the blossom’s original shape. There will be no dimension or volume to the flowers.
Shadow Boxes
Unlike pressed frames, shadow boxes allow your flowers to keep their shape and form. This is a 3-D recreation of your bouquet that will be placed in a frame 1-3 inches deep. This frame will be a more delicate option, but will allow you to keep the texture of the bouquet or boutonniere.
Frame Sizes
Your frame size choice will determine how many flowers I can showcase in your composition and what style of composition I can make for you.
It is very important to carefully consider what kind of composition you would like to look at before committing to a frame size.
The Super Petite
This frame size is 5x7 inches large. It is perfect for 1 large bloom, a boutonniere, a corsage, or 2-3 small blooms. This is a great frame to capture a very small vignette.
Available in both pressed and shadowbox options.
The Standard Heirloom Frame
This 16x20 inch frame is great for capturing your whole bouquet (small to mid-sized bouquet). You could easily request any of the composition styles I offer below (with the exception of the cascading style).
Available in both pressed and shadowbox options.
The Petite Frame
This frame is 8x10 inches large and great for capturing 3-5 blooms and some greenery in the composition. It is realistic to expect a small survey of some of the flowers you had in your bouquet. This is not a frame where you can have an accurate bouquet reconstruction.
Available in both pressed and shadowbox options.
The Standard Grand Frame
At 20x24 inches in size, this is excellent for large bouquets or for showstopping art pieces, there are no limits to what you can ask for in this composition.
Available in both pressed and shadowbox options.
The Classic Frame
The classic frame is 11x14 inches and it was the first size I offered to clients when I started this business. It is a great frame size to capture a gesture of your bouquet - it is unlikely that I could include every bloom, but I could absolutely create a beautifully refined arrangement or display featuring the most beautiful flowers.
Available in both pressed and shadowbox options.
The Showcase Frame
The 24x36 inch ‘Showcase Frame’ will take your breath away. This is the perfect frame option for cascading bouquets or larger-than-life bouquets.
Available in both pressed and shadowbox options.
Composition Options
There are a variety of design choices from which you can select - take a look below and see which type of design speaks to you the most.
You will be asked to select a design option when placing your purchase. Please use these images and design terms as a guide.
Classic Style
This is an aerial (from above) recreation of your bouquet that captures the spirit and variety of flowers featured in the arrangement. The size of your frame will have an impact on how much of your bouquet can be included. You can select from landscape of portrait, but landscape is recommended.
Cascading Bouquet Style
This is a portrait recreation of your cascading bouquet. This style is only available in the Grand Pressed Frame (20x24 inches) or Showcase Pressed Frame (24x36 inches) options
Abstract Pattern Composition
This style of composition evenly distributes the flowers across the frame in an abstracted pattern and showcases all of the different types of leaves, petals, and blooms.
Botanical Print Inspired
This type of composition allows you to celebrate the flowers in your wedding bouquet in a work of art that doesn’t read ‘bridal’. This pays homage to the centuries-old tradition of botanical illustration and will allow you to look at all of the different parts of your flower, from the stem to the pollen to the individual petals and the blooms as a whole. This will not showcase a recreated bouquet.
The Photo/Invitation Vignette

Meaddow Style
This reimagines your bouquet in more of a natural spread of flowers and stems growing from the bottom of the frame. This is a full composition which is fuelled by whimsy and romance.
The Vows Feature

Side Profile Bouquet Style
