your wedding bouquet behind glass, not in the bin
Přísečná near Český Krumlov · 25 min from Č. Budějovice · Free consultation
what's involved
You choose your wedding bouquet for weeks, hold it all day, and throw it away a few days later. Yet it can become a picture that lasts decades. We dry and press the flowers from your bouquet, arrange them into a composition and set them behind museum glass on an acid-free mat. Drying softens the colours into muted, romantic tones — and UV glass with archival materials then keeps them stable. If you want the bouquet whole and in full volume, we make a deep shadow box instead of pressing. Either way it ends up on the wall, not in the bin.
what you get
Gentle drying and pressing
We dry the flowers from your bouquet so they keep their shape and as much colour as possible. No chemicals — just time and care.
Hand arrangement made to measure
We don't lay the flowers out at random — we compose them so the bouquet looks alive and balanced behind glass, not like a dusty herbarium.
Pressed, or whole in full volume
Classic pressed flowers behind flat glass, or a deep shadow box in which the bouquet stays three-dimensional. We show both.
Museum glass against fading
Tru Vue UV glass protects the delicate tones of dried flowers from the sun. The bouquet won't fade, even on a bright wall.
The date and a few words
We add the wedding date, a place-card or a snippet of the invitation — a small touch that turns the flowers into a specific memory.
Archival, acid-free materials
Mat and backing from archival board. Neither the flowers nor the paper will yellow or fall apart — museum-grade mounting.
how it works
Get in touch as soon as possible after the wedding — ideally within 2–3 days, while the bouquet is fresh. We arrange drop-off or shipping.
We choose the approach: pressed flowers behind flat glass, or the whole bouquet in a deep shadow box. We pick the mat colour and size.
We gently dry the flowers and arrange them by hand into a composition on an acid-free mat.

questions and answers
By when after the wedding must I bring the bouquet?
Ideally within 2–3 days, while the flowers are fresh — they hold up best once dried. If you can't make it, reach out anyway; often more can be saved than you'd expect.
Can you frame a bouquet I've already dried?
Yes, if it's in reasonable condition. Bring it in for a look — we'll tell you what can be done with it and what result to expect.
How large a frame will the bouquet need?
It depends on the bouquet size and approach (pressed vs. shadow box). Typically from around 30 × 40 cm up to larger compositions. We propose the optimal size during the consultation.
Will dried flowers fade behind glass?
Drying softens the colours into muted tones right at the start; the state then stabilises. Museum UV glass and archival materials protect the result from further fading for years.
