Flowers hold a special place in every wedding, bringing unique colors, scents, meanings, and emotions that can infinitely elevate any celebration. Let’s face it: they are more than just decorations! They symbolize love and beauty, reflect personal stories and future hopes, and represent unique meanings.
For example, chrysanthemums symbolize joy and celebration, while irises represent valor, faith, and wisdom. And hydrangeas? Those represent perseverance; a quality surely valued by all future married couples!

You might be wondering, how does this process work?
Preserving your bouquet with Designs by Maha is a seamless process that ensures your flowers are handled with the utmost care. Here’s how it works:
1. Detailed Shipping Instructions
Upon booking, Designs by Maha will provide you with comprehensive instructions on how to care for your bouquet before shipping. This includes guidance on how to package and send your flowers to ensure they arrive in perfect condition.
2. Deconstruction and Drying
Once your bouquet arrives, Maha carefully deconstructs the arrangement. The flowers and greens are then dried using silica gel, a process that takes between one to three weeks, depending on the type of flowers and their drying rates.
3. Design Approval
For larger keepsakes, Maha creates one or two design options and sends them to you for approval. This ensures that the final product reflects your vision and preferences!
4. Resin Pouring
After receiving approval, Maha begins the resin pouring process. This intricate step takes another one to three weeks, depending on the size of the keepsake. The resin is poured in layers to ensure a flawless finish.
5. Finishing Touches
Once the resin has completely cured, the keepsake is removed from the mold. The entire piece is then meticulously sanded, and two additional coats of resin are applied to guarantee all edges are clear and smooth. Simple as that!
Choosing Designs by Maha means investing in a piece of art that holds the utmost sentimental value and captures the beauty of your special day. Maha puts her heart and soul into each project, ensuring that your keepsake is a true reflection of your love and memories. Instead of discarding your wedding flowers, let Designs by Maha turn them into a cherished time capsule that you can admire forever!
