I would like to dry them so that I can save them as a memory. My boyfriend gave them to me. :-)

hang them upside down from the ceiling. They will dry out.
That;s the way I dry mine

There are a couple ways that I have dried roses. If you want to keep the bouquet full and round, wrap a ribbon or rubber band around the stems and hang upside down until they dry. You can use hairspray or a fixative and spray on them to help things from falling off.
The other way is to get a container deep enough to cover all the roses, and bury them lightly in clean sand. This will dry them slower and more consistent.
Finally, if you want them flattened, of course you can get a heavy flat object and flatten dry them that way.

Hang them upside down seperately. Very fragile. Don't put them near any wind or heat. I know, I have every rose my boyfriend ever gave me, and we've been going out for 4 years. Spray with hairspray.

you can hang them, Or wrap them in paper towel and press them between two heavy books for a week, you can then frame them put them on the wall or get creative
