Our California flower preservation studio works with Bay Area clients who want a professional, thoughtfully designed keepsake made from their real wedding bouquet.
If you are located in San Francisco, San Jose, Oakland, Palo Alto, Napa, Sonoma, or a nearby Bay Area community, you can ship your flowers directly to our studio after the wedding using 1–2 day delivery.
We work with wedding bouquets, memorial flowers, engagement flowers, bridal shower flowers, anniversary flowers, and other meaningful arrangements. Each order is handled individually, and every piece is created with care so your flowers can become a lasting keepsake.
If you are getting married in San Francisco, San Jose, Oakland, Napa, Sonoma, Palo Alto, Marin County, or anywhere in the Bay Area, we would love to help preserve your wedding flowers.
Book your preservation order before your wedding, choose the products you love, and receive clear instructions for sending your bouquet to our California studio after the event.
Your flowers are part of your wedding story. Let us help you turn them into a keepsake that lasts far beyond the wedding day.
Pressed framed preservation is ideal for clients who love a flat, botanical, fine-art look. Flowers are carefully pressed and arranged between glass or plexiglass to create elegant wall artwork from a wedding bouquet or meaningful arrangement.
This option is beautiful for brides who want a clean, timeless display piece that feels soft, romantic, and easy to place in the home.
Pressed resin keepsakes use flat pressed blooms preserved in clear resin pieces such as trays, coasters, ornaments, jewelry dishes, and other smaller display or functional keepsakes.
This is a great option for clients who want to preserve meaningful flowers in a modern way while creating pieces that can be displayed or used as decorative keepsakes.
3D framed preservation, also known as shadow box preservation, allows flowers to remain dimensional behind glass. This is a beautiful option for clients who want a framed display without pressing every flower flat.
Shadow boxes are often a better choice for larger flowers or blooms that preserve more beautifully in their natural 3D shape.
3D resin preservation keeps naturally shaped flowers inside clear resin blocks, arches, bookends, and other display pieces. This option is often best for flowers that preserve more beautifully in their natural form.
Resin pieces are ideal for clients who want a modern, sculptural keepsake made with their real wedding flowers.
For San Francisco Bay Area clients, we strongly recommend our prepaid 1–2 day delivery shipping label. Because our studio is also located in California, this option is usually simple, fast, and more convenient than purchasing a shipping label directly from UPS or FedEx.
You pay for the shipping label through us, and we provide the label together with detailed packing instructions, so you know exactly how to prepare your bouquet and where to drop off the package.
This option helps reduce stress after the wedding because you do not need to figure out shipping on your own. We guide you through the process and provide the information needed to send your flowers safely.
You can also purchase your own UPS or FedEx 1–2 day delivery label and send your flowers to our studio independently.
Please note that purchasing a shipping label directly from carriers is often more expensive than using our prepaid label option. We also do not recommend slow ground shipping for fresh wedding flowers because delays can affect flower condition.
Shipping flowers may sound stressful, but our process is simple. After your order is placed, we provide detailed packing instructions with photos, so you can clearly see how each step should be done.
The process includes only five main steps and is designed to help protect your flowers during transit, including how to keep stems hydrated, protect the blooms, secure the bouquet, and label the package properly.
Once your flowers arrive at our studio, we carefully unpack, inspect, and begin the first steps of preservation as soon as possible.
Because fresh flowers are time-sensitive, fast 1–2 day shipping gives your bouquet the best chance to arrive in good condition before preservation begins.
Depending on the products you selected, your flowers may go through different preservation methods. Some flowers are pressed flat for framed artwork or pressed resin pieces, while others are dried in their natural 3D form for shadow boxes or resin blocks.
After drying, your flowers may go through additional internal steps such as cleaning, restoring, color correction when needed, layout planning, and final design preparation.
Every bouquet is different, so every preservation piece is designed individually. We do not copy the same layout for every order. Instead, we work with the flowers we receive and create a composition based on their shape, color, size, condition, and the product you selected.
Your final piece may not look exactly like your original bouquet because flowers naturally change during drying and pressing. Our goal is to preserve the feeling of your bouquet in a balanced, beautiful, and lasting keepsake.
We accept flower preservation orders from clients throughout San Francisco, the Peninsula, Silicon Valley, the East Bay, Marin County, wine country, and surrounding Bay Area communities.
The Bay Area has many different wedding styles — elegant San Francisco venues, romantic Napa and Sonoma celebrations, coastal weddings near Half Moon Bay, modern events in San Jose, garden weddings in the East Bay, and intimate celebrations throughout the Peninsula. Even if you are not located directly in San Francisco, we can still help you preserve your bouquet through our California mail-in flower preservation process.
Florals Memories is based in California, which makes our studio a convenient option for Bay Area clients who want professional wedding flower preservation without shipping their bouquet across the country.
We specialize in custom keepsakes made from real wedding flowers, including pressed floral frames, 3D shadow boxes, resin flower preservation, pressed resin keepsakes, and memorial flower preservation. Each piece is created with care, patience, and attention to the natural beauty of your flowers.
Your bouquet may include soft romantic roses, orchids, peonies, ranunculus, anemones, hydrangeas, greenery, or seasonal blooms. We guide you toward the preservation method that makes the most sense for your flowers and your final vision.
