Bouquet preservation, close to home.
Petal Daze is a wedding bouquet preservation studio in Afton, Minnesota. I press bridal bouquets by hand and frame them in solid oak, walnut or driftwood gray behind real glass. Brides in Minneapolis, Saint Paul and the rest of the metro drop off in Afton or Farmington, so the flowers never get shipped. Everyone else ships overnight.
Where to drop off
- Afton, MN, east metro, by appointment, within about 3 days of the wedding
- Farmington, MN, south metro, by appointment, within about 3 days of the wedding
I'll send the exact address and a time when you reserve. A parent, bridesmaid or your planner can bring it.

Afton, Woodbury, Stillwater, Lake Elmo, Cottage Grove, Hastings, Saint Paul, Minneapolis, Eagan, Apple Valley, Lakeville, Farmington, Rosemount, Burnsville, Inver Grove Heights, Maplewood, and Hudson and River Falls, Wisconsin, just across the St. Croix.
