Or pass-it-on to a friend or relative to use for their event or wedding! 🌿 Fresh vs. Preserved vs. Dried - Which should I choose? • The fresh, preserved, and dried are pretty different from each other and so we are highlighting some of the main differences below. Please message us with any questions. Typically, all of them can be used for the same purpose, it usually will depend upon your preference. Fresh: • Full blooms. • Long but limited vase life • Should be delivered a few days before your wedding, not too much in advance. • Should be kept in water (although if it is a few days before your event or wedding, it can be kept out of water). • Stems remain pretty flexible (but please note that babies breath is typically a more delicate flower because of its hundreds/thousands of mini-blooms compared to other flowers) Preserved: • 100% Water-Less, Minimal/No Care Required • Can be delivered months in advance of your wedding/event - this gives you time to prepare your florals ahead, stress-free, on your own schedule! • "Preserved" means that the babies breath has been treated with a special preservation solution/method to make it a 100% water-less, long-lasting flower (1 to 3+ years). • Looks similar to fresh babies breath because it keeps fuller blooms. • Stems remain pretty flexible (but please note that babies breath is typically a more delicate flower because of its hundreds/thousands of mini-blooms compared to other flowers) • Recommended only for indoor use. Outdoor use for events/weddings or other short term occasions is completely fine! • Coloring: Preserved natural White coloring is an off-white, cream, and/or ivory coloring and stems may be a natural greenish or more beige-straw color. Preserved blooms are NOT as bright or a true white as the fresh blooms. Dried: • 100% Water-Less, Minimal/No Care Required • Can be delivered months in advance of your wedding/event - this gives you time to prepare your florals ahead, stress-free, on your own schedule! • "Dried" means that it has been naturally dried (it does not undergo the special preservation method that preserved does). • Dried blooms are noticeably smaller than fresh blooms because all the hydration/moisture is removed from the stems and flowers. • Dried flowers/stems/bunches are pretty delicate and fragile, similar to most dried flowers. Shedding does occur and is natural (bunches start with hundreds/thousands of mini-blooms). • Recommended for indoor use. Outdoor use for extended periods may be possible, depending upon the environmental conditions. 🌿 Coloring: • Natural White + 25 Custom Colors Available (see chart) • Coloring done by either tint or airbrush. • The blooms will almost certainly not be entirely covered by the color. Upon a close look, there is almost always some white visible. • Tint/airbrush may slightly rub off so we always recommend exercising pre-caution especially if placing on light-colored or expensive surfaces. • Color chart shown is approximate coloring on the flower. Color may be slightly different based on computer monitor resolution, etc. • Preserved Natural White Color: The natural white coloring of preserved stems is an off-white, cream, and/or ivory coloring and stems may be a natural greenish or more beige-straw color. Preserved blooms are NOT as bright or a true white as the fresh blooms 📆 Processing Times (Before Shipping): • Fresh Bunches: 1 to 10 business days • Preserved & Dried Bunches: typically 1 business day, depending upon selected color and availability • If you need this faster or for a later delivery date, please let us know in the Personalization section.

This is a perishable product. FedEx 1-Day is strongly recommended for shipment. We are not responsible for delay, mishandling, or damage caused by the shipping carrier. We recommend FedEx 1-Day shipment so that the product can arrive as fresh as possible, given that this product is shipped and not locally hand-delivered. On our end, we maximize the freshness of the product by shipping very fresh product, packaging appropriately, and/or recommending FedEx 1-Day shipping (and/or including FedEx 1-Day shipping for certain larger minimum package sizes), but even with FedEx 1-Day shipping, some drying/perishability cannot be fully avoided. Customer acknowledges and accepts with purchase and should always assume that a portion of the product may start to dry or perish during transit, regardless of shipping speed used, and customer should account for this in their planning and total quantity needed/ordered. For some fresh products, we may offer a slower, more economical shipping speed included (with the option to upgrade to FedEx 1-Day) to allow for flexibility in budgets and/or individual particular uses and/or individual flexibility to the extent of dryness/perishability, etc. However, customer acknowledges and accepts that with the slower shipping speed, the more likely product will arrive drier and/or more perished to a larger degree. This applies year-round, but deliveries from April through October are generally considered warmer months for transit and weather, so this should also be considered by the customer when making their shipment selections, and the use of FedEx 1-Day shipment is even more strongly recommended during these months.
