Question 1

Where are you located? Do you take requests outside of Metro Vancouver?

Accepted Answer

I currently work from my home studio based in Collingwood area (Victoria Dr/Kingsway) of Vancouver, BC. If you are able to drop off your fresh bouquet and / or pick up your commission from me, I would be love to work with you. Even if your event occurred outside of Metro Vancouver, as long as you are able to transport the florals to me within 2 to 5 days, I am happy to work out the logistics with you. Unfortunately, I am not taking any mailed fresh bouquets.

I will provide my building address once you are booked.

Question 2

Do you take last minute fresh bouquet preservations?

Accepted Answer

Booking early prior to your event is your best guarantee to have your fresh bouquet preserved by me. However, if you decide post-event to have your bouquet preserved, the best way to reach out is to email me or send me a message on Instagram to inquire about availability.

Question 3

How much will floral preservation and keepsake creation service cost?

Accepted Answer

Every commission is different. The number, size and style of items to be created and flowers used or sourced will impact the final cost. A base commission is applied starting from $575+gst and varies depending on the preservation style and frame sized used.

The cost is for one size-specific commission item and inclusive of the time for processing, drying/pressing, design, consultations, revisions, and material costs. For 2026 Pricing, visit this page.
 
For commissions requiring material (eg special style of frame) that I do not hold, additional costs may apply. It is best to send in an inquiry so I can understand your requests.

Question 4

What does the commission pricing include?

Accepted Answer

All listed cost includes time for processing, pressing, design, consultations, revisions, and material costs for one-size specific commission items. The size and style of frames, collection you would like to create and flowers used or sourced will also change the final commission cost.

Question 5

How long does it take until my commission is complete?

Accepted Answer

From drop off to final pick up/delivery, the full process will take up to 12 - 16 weeks. If you require your items earlier, we can discuss an earlier delivery timeline. Learn more on step by step process on the Bouquet Preservation page.

Currently, all frames provided are sourced from a Canadian company that offers sustainably-made oak frames. Custom sizing and styles are available. I am also always happy to source other frame options. Inquire to find out more.

Question 7
