Thank you to Lauri from Floral Keepsakes by Lauri! I used Lauri for both my bridal bouquet and wedding dress preservations. I got the shadow box with my bridal bouquet and a boutonniere and one of the resin trays with a bridesmaid's bouquet, and both turned out beautifully! Very impressed with the work and would definitely recommend! Thankful I will always have this from my wedding day!

Lauri created keepsakes from the flowers at my mom's memorial service. I am amazed by her kindness and professionalism. The flowers were preserved exactly as we had requested and look so beautiful. I highly recommend her and would use her services again.

On my wedding night I realized how much I loved my bouquet and couldn't just let it die! My husband and I had knew a few people that mentioned keepsakes by Lauri, and she was able to squeeze me in last minute to show me what she could do to preserve my flowers! Although Lauri was extremely busy with work and other clients, she spent plenty of time showing us all of our options and helping us decide what we wanted to have done.
I ended up having my bouquet freeze dried into a picture frame. We also ordered 3 jewelry boxes with our 3 daughters flowers preserved on the top. Last, but not least, Lauri is preserving my wedding dress for me as well. If you love your wedding flowers as much as I do then I highly recommend meeting with Lauri!

Lauri did a beautiful job pressing my wedding bouquet and creating a beautiful piece of art with it. Her ability to design the flowers in a new way while still preserving the original look is incredible. I absolutely love the finished product and cannot wait to put it on display where every guest can see it as soon as they step into my home!
