Question 1

What is varmala preservation and how does Giftistan do it?

Accepted Answer

Varmala preservation captures the actual garlands exchanged at the wedding by drying the petals slowly, then setting them inside a clear resin frame with gold-foil detailing. The result hangs on a wall as heirloom décor that lasts for years.

Question 2

How do I send my wedding flowers for preservation?

Accepted Answer

Place the order, then ship the dried or fresh garlands to our Bareilly studio within forty-eight hours of the function. We share packing instructions on WhatsApp so the petals reach us in good shape and do not need salvage work.

Question 3

What is the timeline for varmala or nikah preservation?

Accepted Answer

Plan for two to three weeks once the flowers reach our studio — about ten days to dry them properly, four to five days to design and pour, and four to seven business days to ship pan-India. We share ETAs at every stage.

Question 4

Can a Nikah Nama frame include Urdu calligraphy?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Nikah Nama frames are built around Urdu calligraphy by default, with optional Arabic verses, the couple's names, and the nikah date in either gold-foil or hand-painted finish. We share a mockup before pouring.

Question 5

Do you ship wedding preservation orders across India?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Every piece is double-boxed with corner protection and shipped pan-India through tracked couriers. We can hold dispatch by a few days if you want the keepsake to arrive on the wedding anniversary or another specific date.

Question 6

Can I cancel a custom wedding order after I have placed it?

Accepted Answer

Custom and personalised pieces can be cancelled within two hours of order placement. After that the materials are committed and the design work has begun, so the order becomes non-cancellable and non-refundable.
