How can wood florals work for you? These light-weight, eco-friendly florals are the perfect way to add a little bit of personal flair to your event - from custom colors and specific flower types to add-ins like book flowers, memorial pieces, and the use of material from a loved one's wedding dress - I can create a custom piece that is unique to you!
You won't need to worry about wilting or rushing to preserve your flowers - these pretty things will stay pretty - forever. <3
Have an inspiration picture or fresh bouquet you want to recreate? i can help! Send pictures and requests to me here or email me at mydinosaurdreams@gmail.com
Custom color matching available - I have yet to find a shade I can't match! If you have a swatch or picture of your colors, I am able to use that to match to.
I am versatile and love what I do - and I love custom requests, such as book flowers, comic book flowers, or special pieces incorporated into your flowers. feel free to message me to talk flowers!
I have a physical shop in State Center, Iowa, and ship most places in the world. :)

They did a beautiful job! So happy that we went with wood
I purchased my Sora wood flowers from My Dinosaur Dreams in the form of a 10" bouquet wrapped with twine and the matching boutonniere and couldn't be happier. My husband and I elo...
ped in a very personal and private ceremony with just the two of us and our officiant, so I did not want to do elaborate florals but I did want a bouquet for some pictures and that I could display at home afterwards. I was so impressed with this bouquet. In fact, many people saw the bouquet in pictures afterwards and commented on how stunning it was, not even realizing it wasn't real. Lovely job!

y boutonnieres... those got lost in the mail and she ended up having to wait for them but I still got my flowers in plenty of time for the wedding! She sent me teaser pictures before she shipped the flowers to me and I cried. She completely exceeded my expectations... and then when the boxes arrived and I opened them I cried again! She is absolutely the best and kept me updated every step of the way! I now follow her on Facebook and I will be ordering from her again.
Great to work with and awesome flowers!
