A Modern Farmhouse Summer Wedding, a Sage Green Color Palette, and the Two Frames That Now Live in Their Bedroom
Some weddings have a feeling before they have a single detail. Sarah’s was one of them.
She and her husband were married on August 23, 2025, at Normandy Farm Hotel in Blue Bell, Pennsylvania. It was the kind of August day you do not get in August. Mid-seventies. The kind of weather that lets a summer wedding actually feel like one. The venue carries a modern farmhouse spirit, so they leaned all the way into it. Sage green dresses on the bridesmaids, a light blue suit on the groom, soft pastels woven through every detail. Romantic, airy, elegant, and laid-back at the same time. Nothing forced.
The Bouquet
Sarah’s bouquet was built around her palette: soft pastels that played quietly off the sage green. No tight, structured shapes. She wanted something natural and organic, with real movement through it. Texture. Air. The kind of bouquet that looks like it was just gathered, even when every stem was placed on purpose.
She told us the flowers themselves did not hold a specific symbolic meaning. The meaning was in how they felt. That style choice, the looseness and the softness, ended up matching the whole day.
How She Found Us
Sarah first heard about bouquet preservation through a friend of a friend. She started looking into studios a few months before the wedding and quietly turned it over for a while. About a month out, she decided to move forward.
That timing is more common than people think. A lot of brides land on preservation in the final weeks of planning, once the rest of the day comes into focus and the question of what happens to the flowers after starts to matter.
The Reveal
When Sarah saw her finished pieces for the first time, she said it brought her right back. The day. The little details she did not want to forget. The feeling of all of it.
“The first time I saw my preserved piece, it honestly felt so special. It brought me right back to the wedding day and all of the little details I didn’t want to forget. It felt like a beautiful way to preserve not just the flowers, but the feeling of the day itself.”
That is the part we always hope happens. Not just that the colors land or the composition holds together, but that someone opens the box and the whole day comes back at once.
Where the Pieces Live Now
Sarah chose to have her bouquet and her husband’s boutonniere preserved as two separate frames. Both pieces now hang in the master bedroom of their home.
We love that. Not the living room, not the entryway, not a space designed for visitors to see and comment on. The bedroom. The most personal room in the house. Where the two of them see them every day, side by side, the way the bouquet and boutonniere lived side by side at the wedding.
She told us the pieces are a meaningful reminder, every morning and every night. That is exactly where preservation belongs.
