Choosing locally grown blossoms for your wedding flowers during the spring and summer season always feel a bit more sentimental. Knowing who and where your flowers came from, the love and care that went into growing each bloom makes it a bit harder to let go of them once you've said your I Do's, but you don't have to!
Today I'm sharing with you some of last season's favourites as we went through the summer months and some of the local flowers that I preserved along the way.
Wondering what flowers press best and what should be avoided in your bouquet if you plan on having it preserved? When you book your wedding bouquet with Seek & Bloom I will send you my pressing guide, suggested flowers for the best results and you can always ask for peace of mind before planning with your florist.
On this February day, I'm dreaming of when all these flowers will be in full bloom again and the day your beautiful bouquets show up at my doorstep ready to be preserved into a forever piece of artwork.
