BUDGETING FOR PRESERVATION


Many brides love the idea of preservation, but fear that their "money will be gone" by the time their wedding is completed.  The key to making your preservation dreams a reality is planning now.  Attending a consultation a few months before youre wedding date will allow you to obtain quotes, lock in pricing, and arrange a payment plan.

"Think of it like Christmas layaway".  Choose your items now, then pay them off over time.  By breaking your total into smaller pieces, it suddenly becomes manageable.
 
Some brides chose to pay a portion of their down-payment at their initial consultation, and to pay the rest when they receive gift money at their wedding. 

When a bride has priced out the cost prior to the wedding, she can also speak with guests about contributing to her floral preservation as a wedding or bridal shower gift.  It's really no different than registering at a department store for gift items you would like your guests to consider.

Evergreen Dreams gift certificates can be purchased and passed on to the recipient. 

You CAN find a way to make your preservation wishes come true!
