For the Wedding Party


Every piece handcrafted to order in your custom color palette.

Bridal bouquets. Full or half dozen, hand-tied with satin ribbon in your color.

Bridesmaid bouquets. Trio or half dozen, coordinated or contrasting with the bride.

Boutonnieres. For the groom, groomsmen, and fathers.

Corsages. For mothers and grandmothers.

Each rose is approximately 14 inches long with hand-sculpted suede leather petals. No two are identical, just like in nature.

Three years after the wedding, your bridesmaids still have their bouquets. The groom’s boutonniere is on a shelf in the study. Not in the trash. That’s the difference.

Turn Your Centerpieces
Into Guest Favors

 

A dozen leather roses displayed in a vase on each table. At the end of the night, every guest takes one rose home with a small box or bud vase from the table.

One centerpiece serves 8 to 12 guests. No separate favor to source, no scramble at the end of the night. The centerpiece IS the favor.

Every guest leaves with a permanent keepsake from your wedding. Not a candle that gets forgotten in a drawer. Not a monogrammed coaster. Something they keep on their nightstand and talk about for years.

Wedding Flower Costs

According to Brides Magazine,
“A fresh bridal bouquet costs up to $350” and dies in a week

Ours is $325 and lasts forever.

The Knot’s 2025 Real Weddings Study puts the average floral spend at $2,723. Zola, another major wedding platform, quotes an average of $6,300. Bouquets, boutonnieres, centerpieces. Our two main wedding packages for 150 guests each come in under both numbers. And theirs die. Ours don’t.

It gets better. According to WeddingWire, the average couple spends $400 on wedding favors. With our centerpiece-to-favor concept, that cost disappears. The centerpiece IS the favor. Every guest takes a rose home. No separate favor to source, no extra line item in the budget.

The Preserved Rose Alternative Isn't Really "Forever".

Preserved rose companies brand their arrangements as ‘forever roses’ and ‘eternity roses.’ The fine print tells a different story. The most well-known brand promises ‘up to a year with proper care.’ Others claim one to three years under ideal conditions. Check the reviews before you buy. On Trustpilot, that same preserved rose brand holds a 1.7-star rating out of 5. The most common complaints: roses that arrived damaged, petals that fell off within weeks, and customer service that went silent. One in three reviewers of another major preserved rose brand gave one star.

They sell ‘forever.’ Their customers disagree.

There Is A Better Option

Leather roses are handcrafted specifically for your event. They don’t require water, sunlight, temperature control, or careful handling. They will not wilt in the heat of an outdoor ceremony. They will not trigger allergies in the one in four adults who have seasonal sensitivity, according to the CDC. They will not arrive damaged because they are not fragile.

Ten years after your wedding, they still look exactly the way they did on your wedding day.

No other floral option can make that claim. We were the first company in the country handcrafting leather roses for weddings. We have been doing this since 1997.

Not Just for Weddings

Quinceañeras

The last doll, the changing of shoes, the first dance. Every detail is symbolic. The flowers should be too. Leather rose bouquets and centerpieces in your quinceañera colors become permanent keepsakes of the celebration.

Sweet 16

A milestone birthday deserves a centerpiece that lasts longer than the party. Guests take home individual roses as favors. The birthday girl keeps her bouquet forever.

Anniversaries, Galas, Milestone Birthdays

Galas, Milestone Birthdays, Anniversaries, Special events, (Leather is the traditional 3rd wedding anniversary gift) any event where the flowers shouldn’t end up in the trash the next morning. Leather roses make it permanent.

“THEY’RE BEAUTIFUL, I’VE NEVER SEEN ANYTHING LIKE THEM”

Seen It. Touched It. Loved It.

At every wedding showcase we participate in, the reaction is the same. They see our roses, pick them up and are delighted that they are leather. What’s the #1 response? “They’re Beautiful”, followed by “I’ve never seen anything like them”. Then we immediately see that look in their eye indicating the planning stage has begun.

Wedding & Special Events FAQ

More FAQs on the pages they pertain to: Shop | About/General | 3rd Anniversary

How much do leather roses cost for a wedding?

A classic red bridal bouquet (one dozen roses) starts at $325. Bridesmaid bouquets, boutonnieres, corsages, and centerpieces are priced based on quantity and customization. Custom color orders require additional lead time. Contact us for a complete event quote based on your wedding party size and color palette.
 
How far in advance should I order for my wedding?
If you are just ordering a simple bouquet then we have that in stock and you can order right here online now. For wedding packages/custom colors, we recommend 12 to 16 weeks before your event date. If your timeline is tighter, Contact us and we will do our best to work with your schedule.
 
Can you match my exact wedding colors?

We offer 37 colors (see the chart above). Custom hand-dyeing isn’t available at this time, but with 37 options, most brides find their perfect match

How does the centerpiece-to-favor concept work?

Each table displays roses in a vase as the centerpiece. At the end of the reception, each guest takes one rose from their table. We can provide small boxes or vases for the trip home, or guests take the rose as is. Most couples make a dramatic announcement at some point letting people know that “those roses you’ve been eyeing all night just happen to be your favor”. You can also explain that you have boxes, vases on the way out of the event or whatever you wish.
 
What size are the roses?

Each rose is approximately 14 inches long. The bloom measures approximately 2.25 to 2.75 inches in height and 2 to 2.5 inches in width. Hand-sculpted from genuine suede leather with bendable wire stems and realistic leaves.

Can bridesmaids have different colors than the bride?

Absolutely. Many brides choose a signature color for their bouquet and coordinate complementary colors for bridesmaids. We can even mix colors within individual bouquets to match your vision.
 
Do you provide vases for centerpieces?
That is completely up to you. We have great vases we can ship to you or you can use your own. Standard cylinder vases (8 to 10 inches tall) work well for centerpieces. For guest take-home favors, small bud vases (4 to 6 inches) or decorative boxes are popular options.
 
Do you work with wedding planners and event coordinators?
Yes. We love to work with planners and coordinators, and we will make sure everything goes smoothly regarding timing, colors, delivery logistics, and event setup. Our craftspeople have been handcrafting leather flowers since 1997 and have fulfilled orders for weddings, corporate events, and milestone celebrations nationwide.
 
What about outdoor ceremonies? Will heat or weather affect the roses?
Leather roses are just like any other leather. Keeping them dry is best but suede leather can take a lot. They will never wilt in heat, freeze in cold, or blow apart in wind. Outdoor ceremonies, destination weddings, beach settings: the roses handle any conditions and still look perfect in every photo. Unlike fresh flowers, leather roses require zero water, zero shade, and zero babysitting on your wedding day.
 
Can I order leather roses for a quinceañera, Sweet 16 or Special Event?
Yes. Everything that goes for wedding can go for your special event. We create the same bouquets, centerpieces, and guest favors for quinceañeras, Sweet 16 celebrations, and any milestone event. The process is exactly the same: Contact us to get started.
 
Can I see and feel a sample before committing to a full order?
Yes. We offer sample roses for a deposit that is applied to your final order. This lets you see the craftsmanship, feel the leather quality, and photograph the roses in your venue lighting before committing.
