How it works
01. Choose your frame
Ordering your frame is required to lock in a spot in our preservation queue. Choose your frame size and finish and then place an order on this site.
02. Send us your flowers
Ship your flowers to us, or book a drop-off at our Gilbert studio. Your order confirmation email will include detailed instructions.
03. Pressing & Preserving
Our team carefully presses and preserves your precious blooms. This is the long part but it's worth it (5-7 months from drop-off to delivery).
04. Custom Design
Our design team will arrange your blooms in a beautiful and timeless design—tailored to your frame size and finish.
05. Approve your design
You'll get to see and approve your finished design before anything is sealed and framed.
06. Shipping & pick up
Once approved, your bouquet will be secured to the glass and sealed inside its frame. Collect it in Gilbert or have it shipped directly to you.
Choose your frame size
Floral preservation as low as $295. Boutonniere add-ons start at $110.

“I wanted to preserve my wedding flowers but didn’t think too far in advance and plan before our wedding. I called Sarah late in the evening and she immediately called me back and allowed me to drop off my flowers the next day! Our flower preservation could not look better! I am so glad I found Petal Press and I would highly recommend!”

Frequently asked questions
When should I place my order?
When should I place my order?
Order at least a month before your event if you can. It gives us time to send shipping instructions and gives you time to arrange the handoff.
We can sometimes still take flowers up to five days after an event. Call (928) 396-2497 to confirm before you ship.
When do you need my flowers?
When do you need my flowers?
As soon after the event as possible. Fresh flowers press well, and every day of delay costs you petals.
We usually accept flowers up to five days after your wedding or event, depending on how they have been kept.
How do I ship my flowers to you?
How do I ship my flowers to you?
We accept flowers from anywhere in the country. Place your order and your confirmation email includes packing and shipping instructions, plus how to care for your flowers between the event and the handoff.
You choose the carrier and cover the shipping to us. We are in Gilbert, Arizona.
Can I drop my flowers off in Gilbert?
Can I drop my flowers off in Gilbert?
Yes, and there is no charge for drop-off or pickup. Your confirmation email includes a link to book a time at our Gilbert studio.
Most clients send a friend or family member while they are away. Appointments are required, and we cannot guarantee someone is there outside your slot. If you miss it, rebook through the same link.
How long before I get my frame?
How long before I get my frame?
Five to seven months from drop-off to delivery, depending on the time of year. We email you when your flowers come out of the presses and enter the design queue.
Pressing cannot be rushed without damaging the flowers. So we do not rush it.
Can I send dried flowers instead of fresh?
Can I send dried flowers instead of fresh?
No. Dried flowers crumble in the press instead of flattening, so we need them fresh.
We are working on a professionally dried option in a shadow box. For now, shadow boxes are by special request only.
Do petal colors change during preservation?
Do petal colors change during preservation?
Yes. Depending on the flower and its moisture content, colors shift during pressing and keep fading slowly afterwards.
UV-protected glass slows the fading. It does not stop it. Read this before you order, so the frame you open is the frame you expected.
Pressed by hand, one frame at a time
Every frame is pressed, arranged, and sealed in our Gilbert studio. Local clients drop off and pick up at no charge. Everyone else ships, and we take flowers from anywhere in the country.
