We can also include any other details such as ribbons, photos, invitations and other inclusions from your special day into any product. There are no limits as far as creativity! Let's work together to create a piece unique for you.

We are currently working on a schedule of 2-6 months. Whichever way we are preserving your bouquet, we take extra care throughout the process and allow additional time to make sure that the flowers are preserved completely and ready for encapsulating for all products.

We appreciate your patience throughout this process. We can’t wait for you to see your artwork but we also want to present you with the most beautiful piece possible.

Yes! We can preserve your flowers from any event. Whether it's a baby shower, memorial, or a custom piece, we can work with you to preserve your flowers in a unique, special way! Check our Custom Preservation section to see the different ways we can accommodate you.

We will certainly try to preserve every flower and piece of greenery in your bouquet. However, not all flowers will make it through the process and this is natural.

Not all flowers preserve the same--some will look different preserved than when they were fresh. While the overall look of your flowers will remain the same, you should expect color changes on most of your flowers. Most flowers tend to dry with a darker hue. For example, red roses turn burgundy, white flowers turn ivory, hot-pink flowers turn purple, hydrangeas usually don't retain their shape, and some flowers show translucent spots on the petals due to bruising when they were fresh.

Please be advised that all resin pieces from Art by Holly Ryan are unique and vary from piece to piece. Florals are utilized in the resin art pieces after being preserved. Most of your flowers will go through our Flower Beautification Process prior to the natural florals being encapsulated in the resin.

As always, we recommend following our shipping instructions carefully to assure that your flowers get to us in the best shape possible!

Yes! We are able to do a recreation using elements from your air-dried bouquet! We would essentially recreate your original bouquet and incorporate pieces of your original into the final piece.
