Pressed and Preserved is a small family-run (mother and daughter) business based in Solihull, England, which Janet founded in 2020. What started as a childhood hobby identifying and pressing wildflowers, combined with a love for art, evolved into collecting and pressing local wildflowers in more recent years, arranging and framing them in both contemporary and traditional designs. This venture quickly expanded - and Janet began taking orders for bouquet preservation, where wedding flowers are pressed or dried three-dimensionally and framed to create a lasting memory of the happy couples special day. As the business blossomed with hundreds of commissions and growing demand, it became a family affair, with Janet's daughter, Laura, joining to help with flower preservation and floral art design. 

​

We’re proud to share that Pressed and Preserved has now expanded further, and we operate from two dedicated home studios. Laura has taken over running the business full-time, working closely alongside Janet to continue offering meaningful, handcrafted pieces made with care and attention to detail. This next chapter allows us to grow while staying true to our roots - a love of flowers, family and preserving memories.

​

Although we specialise in preserving wedding bouquets, we also create bespoke pieces, using flowers from occasions such as Valentines Day, birthdays, anniversaries and gender reveals to create unique keepsakes. We also preserve farewell flowers in memory of a loved one.

​

It is a privilege and a pleasure to preserve life's special memories for you

and future generations!
