Not sure what to do with your bridal bouquet or other items from your wedding? Watch this video!
For you bouquet, here are a few ideas:
- Often, couples allow guests to take tabletop and other arrangements home, but you can also give them to anyone working at your wedding including bartenders and waitstaff.
- Or, have them delivered to a nearby assisted living center — just be sure to make arrangements with the center ahead of time. You can also remember a late relative or another loved one by leaving flowers from your wedding at their gravesite.
- To preserve your wedding bouquet, hang it upside down for several weeks to dry. Experts say it will last another six months to a year. Another unique way of preserving your posies? Pluck petals and leaves out of the bouquet, press them between wax paper, iron and add them to a frame that includes your wedding invitation.
