The Process

Secure and Confirm Booking

  1. Enquire with our form below to make sure your special date is available, you will also be given drop-off time options - please note we will email you one week before to confirm actual day/time/drop-off address
     

  2. Once you have confirmation of your date, $150 deposit is required to secure your booking – the remaining amount is due before your beautiful frame is sent out to you

The Process

Send Your Flowers

  1. We are located in Kainga, North Canterbury (Just before Kaiapoi) – Drop offs are available
     

  2. If you aren’t located in Christchurch then please overnight courier your flowers to us - you will be sent out packaging instructions and address 1 week before your big day
     

  3. We will need to receive your flowers no later than 2-3 days after the event – The sooner you can send these the better they will look once pressed

If your final piece is to be shipped, an extra $60 will be invoiced to cover this cost

If your flowers arrive & we don't think we can achieve a great result we will discuss this with you - We don't want any disappointment from both sides

The Process

Preservation Process

Once received, we will process every single flower and press accordingly to what each flower requires

Most flowers need to be deconstructed petal by petal for the best result, this means they also need to be put back together which is extremely time-consuming and can take days to reconstruct a single bouquet

From start to finish we spend an average of 30-40 hours on every single bouquet to ensure the best pressing and reconstruction results

Please allow 16-24 weeks to press and frame your bouquets

Important Information

The colours and textures of your bouquet may be altered due to the preservation process

  • Colour correction is available - we generally will only correct white and light pink flowers, all other colours are left natural

  • Pure white florals tend to turn to an antiqued white, cream or mustard

  • Pink florals can fade to a light pink/yellow, or a darker pink or purple

  • Very light pinks may turn grey

  • Red tones can become more pink/purple or dark burgundy

  • Every single flower is unique and takes the pressing process differently and if required we may colour correct

  • If the style you have chosen doesn't best suit your bouquet I will discuss this with you at the time

Flowers that DON’T press well 

  • Chrysanthemum

  • Anthurium

  • Calla Lilys

  • Tropical Flowers

  • White Stock

  • Banksia


Our floral frames will fade over time as they are a natural product – We recommend keeping our floral frames out of direct sunlight to prevent them fading fast and avoid displaying in damp areas

There may be fall-out from some of your flowers once framed, again they are a natural product and not every single part of the flowers can be completely stuck down
