Moab Roses gave me a jump scare the first time I preserved them (7 years ago). That beautiful Sienna and Terracotta color mix completely disappeared when I opened the press and found…. purple?????
At first I thought something went wrong, how could these be the same flowers?
I quickly realized, that’s just what they do. Nothing went wrong. I felt sad that the beautiful autumn bouquet had to be designed with a color our bride didn’t originally plan for. It wasn’t even a slight change - this is a completely different color that gets even deeper as time goes on.
In my beginning years, I struggled with knowing they would turn purple and at the time there was nothing I could do about it. It sparked my desire to learn color enhancement and to this day it’s the reason I needed to figure it out.
Adding the option of color enhancement for our clients takes a weight off of our shoulders, it leaves the decision completely up to you. We have the experience and knowledge to help you make the right decision.
At YWB we believe both options are beautiful, and whether you decide to color enhance your florals or leave them natural, the sentiment doesn’t change.
