My love for pressed flowers began with my own wedding: an Earth Day celebration in April 2023. Wanting to preserve such a meaningful day, I gathered the thickest books I could find (I finally found a use for Leo Tolstoy's War and Peace!) and carefully pressed flowers from my bouquet before framing them. 

​

Two years later, after my son was born in March 2025, I picked wildflowers during one of our many strolls around the neighborhood and preserved those as well. I loved the idea of having framed flowers that represented two of the most meaningful milestones in my life - my wedding and the month my son was born.

​

During maternity leave, I decided to turn that passion into something I could share with others, and Annabelle's Bouquets was born. What started as a creative outlet became a way to help others preserve the flowers from life's special moments.

​

Based in the Greater Los Angeles area (Calabasas), I primarily serve clients throughout Los Angeles and Ventura Counties with local bouquet drop-off and pickup options. I have also expanded to work with clients across the United States through my mail-in preservation service. I can't wait to work with you!
