"The freeze dried rose petals were great - we didn't have to worry about wilting petals, nor staining the floor of the lodge. We used them in the flower girl baskets and in decorations for the reception. The multi color red rose pack matched perfectly with the roses in our bouquets. We could order the freeze-dried roses ahead of time and store them in the closet until ready for use. One less thing to worry about!!! Thanks for the kind words. We really had a great time at the wedding!" Best regards, Tawna The flower girls: Kristin, Lindsay (my 4 yr old twins), Jorden (my 6 yr old), Ciera (8 yr old neice)
