Sustainability is swiftly becoming a keystone in 2025 wedding trends. Couples are embracing more climate driven choices weaved throughout their big day! Preserving your bridal bouquet is one of the easiest, eco-friendly options to achieve a “greener” wedding!
Having your bridal bouquet pressed, not only reduces flower waste from your discarded blooms, but also allows you to cherish your flowers forever. Instead of allowing your flowers to wilt, only to wind up in the trash, you can have them transformed into lasting keepsakes.
Floral Waste Factoids!
Did you know the floral industry generates a massive amount of waste annually, with millions of flowers discarded after events like weddings? This waste includes flowers that are often not sold or are disposed of after they wilt, creating unnecessary environmental harm. Many flowers used for weddings are grown outside of the United States, contributing to a large carbon footprint due to transportation and handling, only for them to be thrown away within days. Greenhouses producing flowers outside of the United States are also involved in human trafficking and abuse. Flowers, when discarded, often wind up in landfills where they can decompose and produce harmful greenhouse gases, particularly methane, which contributes to climate change. Unlike compostable waste like food, many flowers are not properly disposed of in an environmentally responsible manner.
At Vancuterie, we are deeply committed to sustainability and stewardship of our planet. Bridal bouquet preservation reflects these core values by offering couples an eco-friendly alternative to letting their beautiful wedding flowers go to waste. Instead of discarding the blooms after the celebration, we help preserve them as timeless keepsakes, reducing environmental impact by extending the life of what’s already been grown and crafted.
As more couples seek to incorporate sustainability into their weddings, preserving your bouquet becomes not just a sentimental choice, but a way to actively participate in the growing trend of environmentally conscious celebrations in 2025. By choosing floral preservation, you're not only making an impact on your wedding day but also contributing to a greener future for generations to come.
We can wait to press your wedding bouquet!
