For the bride who believes in memories that last forever.
Your Wedding Day is filled with fleeting, beautiful moments that you will want to hold tight for the rest of your life. The quiet nerves before your ceremony, the love as you say your vows to one another, the laughter (and maybe tears!) of the speeches… While the day itself may pass quickly, there are ways to hold onto it’s magic. With just a little thought, and the right keepsakes. you can create something lasting, tangible, and deeply personal.
Here are 5 meaningful ways to keep your wedding memories for years to come…
Save your Dress (beautifully!)
Your wedding dress isn’t just a ‘dress’, it’s the memory of how you felt when you wore it. Every step down the aisle, every twirl during your first dance, every warm embrace – those memories are represented by your wedding dress itself. Storing it properly not only protects the fabric, but also the story it holds. Our handmade Wedding Dress Boxes are made for this exact purpose. Handmade in our Devon workshop in a range of stunning designs, and strong enough to last generations. It’s more than just storage – it’s preservation. Of the dress, of course, but also of that once-in-a-lifetime feeling of being a Bride.
Keep the Love Notes
Those scribbled or speeches, maybe the card your husband gave you on the morning of your wedding, well-wishes from friends & family… These makeup the emotional ‘heart’ of your day, and are worth keeping to look back on as the years pass. Place them safely in a memory box where you can stumble upon them one rainy afternoon in 20 years time!
Press your Bouquet
Flowers fade but the memory of your gorgeous bouquet doesn’t have to. Tuck a few blooms in the pages of a book or press them to a frame, then store the petals carefully alongside your wedding dress or other wedding keepsakes. Even in their dried form they can still carry the scent of your wedding day – a simple tradition that becomes a powerful keepsake!
Store your Accessories Together
Your veil, your shoes, and your ‘something blue’ can often get forgotten about and lost in the bottom of a wardrobe. But when stored together in one dedicated, beautiful space they can be safe, protected, and ready to be revisited! Whether that’s for a nostalgic moment or to share with a family member later down the line, at least you know where they are.
Start a Tradition
These beautiful keepsakes aren’t just for you – they become part of your family’s story. Our boxes are made to last, meaning they can be passed down, re-opened, and cherished by generations to come. One day, your daughter may open your wedding dress box and discover your dress, your dried flowers, your veil, your love notes. A piece of her history, loving kept for her to explore. It’s in these gestures that heirlooms are born, and it all starts with keeping & protecting your memories today.
