Turning Blooms into Everlasting Memories
At Flowressence, we focus on preserving the detail of every flower — because the details tell a story.
About the process:
The craft of floral preservation goes far beyond hanging flowers upside down. I have developed a complex and meticulous process that not only ensures the flowers are dried but also, ensures they retain their vibrant colors and delicate textures. This includes: heat methods, silica gels, flower presses, epoxy resin and more. Every flower has different needs, so there is no “one size fits all” approach. Flowressence takes care to use whatever method will make your flowers look their absolute best, for as long as possible.
Once you send an inquiry, I will follow up with an order form. There, you’ll be able to specify every detail— from the color of the frame to the bouquet drop-off plan.
Color Correction
In the floral preservation sphere, color correction is a process by which an artist uses a variety of mediums to enhance a flower’s color after it is preserved. The goal is to mimic the color of the flower when it was fresh, giving it a “live” look. The biggest benefit of color correction is: your flowers will remain vibrant forever! The truth is, even the brightest of flowers fade over time. Some find it beautiful to age alongside their flowers, while others prefer a timeless look. Due to the plethora of benefits associated with color correction, Flowressence now includes it in every pricing package— because we believe it’s worth it. However, any client can opt-out of this service for a discounted price.
Why choose us?
Two things that set us apart— our technique, and accessibility.
On technique: We are one of the few preservation artists in the world who deconstruct almost every flower, petal by petal. This method goes hand in hand with color-correction to make the flowers appear as fresh as possible. For 3D styles, we also ensure your flowers look their best by utilizing color correcting mediums that mimic the shade and texture of each flower and leaf. Color correction is not used as commonly with 3D florals, but our dedication to making your blooms come to life and last forever means we have mastered this complex process to give you the best result.
On accessibility: We are the first “Holland” based preservation company. West Michigan is a hot spot for weddings, and now, the beautiful art of floral preservation can reach even further in Michigan. You can be sure that you will get that “small-business” feel, marked by involvement in the process, thorough communication, attention to detail, and personal touches — every time. (Note, we still do serve nationally!)
