Nationwide Collection service for wedding flowers

Jenny's wedding bouquet preservation service has just gone nationwide iwith our pick-up service from any hotel in Ireland.

Yesterday we collected wedding bouquets from the Ritz Carlton in Enniskerry, Co. Wicklow,
from the Castle Court Hotel in Westport, from the Slieve Russell Hotel, Cavan and others
and we received the wedding bouquets in our studio this morning for pre treatments and preserving.

The process takes about three months to complete and when ready we can have the finished framed keepsake delivered back to the client.

We have been getting bouquets from all over ireland for many years and now the process has been made easier.

Simply let us have all of the details of addresses, contact names and numbers, dates etc and leave the rest to us.

Dried Calla Lilies from Jenny's Studio Sligo

Calla Lilies in Wedding Bouquet with white tulle and Diamante Buckle handle.

Calla lilies are one of the most popular flowers for weddings. The white Calla's are a soft white and are suitable for every season.

Calla Lilies preserve well and like all our wedding bouquets that come to our studio they go through a series of treatments before they are ready to preserve.

Dolce Vita Roses with Chocolate Bronze Ribbon

Every wedding day and every bride are different.

We have never preserved two wedding bouquets that are identical.

Here are Dolce Vita roses that have been accessorised with diamante and chocolate bronze ribbon in a beautiful natural wood framed shadow box.

All of our frames are made in Ireland by the finest craftsmen.

Close up of preserved green and pink roses

Roses preserve very well and there are a myriad of colours, sizes and shapes to choose from.

All flowers change a little during the preservation process. some darken because the water that has given the flowers their luminosity has been taken out and the base colour remains.

Some flowers go lighter when they have been preserved and pale pink often lightens dramatically.

Here we see roses with diamante centres that have been framed with the wedding coin and one of the wedding invitations.

Wedding Bouquet of Sunflowers Preserved

It is not often you see a wedding bouquet of Sun Flowers but here is a beautiful one with brown centres. The accessory/filler flower here is "Golden Rod" and the foliage is pittosporum.

Preserved Anthurium and Banksia Wedding Bouquet

What beautiful flowers the Anthurium are. Very versatile and wonderful used in very large floral arrangements. Colours range from brilliant white to cream, through to chocolate and pistachio.

In this image we have a preserved wedding bouquet of pink anthurium and banksia. The technique we use is freeze drying.

Fhe frame and mount is a natural wood of museum quality so your flowers are kept protected from acids and will last for years.

Our sligo studio displays a selection of preserved wedding bouquets and are available to see on appointment.

Wedding flowers framed as a keepsake

The craft of drying flowers has been around for a long time now but the true art comes with experience and a high level of technical skill.

Flowers have always brought great joy with diversity in form and colour that changes with each season.

Jenny Hamilton has successfully preserved over 2000 wedding bouquets and has a attained a level of excellence in design and finish.

Jenny is an acknowledged expert in floral preservation and specialises in preserving and framing wedding flowers.

This image is one of cymbidium orchids and ecualyptus accompanied with diamante and tulle accent. they are but a selection from the main wedding bouquet and have been redesigned in a small gift size frame. In this case the whole bouquet was not preserved.

More images and news to follow. We do hope you enjoy the images of the results of our work which has taken many years to achieve.
