Wedding Bouquet Preservation – Medina County, Ohio
Welcome, and thank you for visiting Honest Bloom Studio.
Your flowers deserve to be more than a memory in a photograph. As an artisan florist and flower preservationist based in Medina County, Ohio, serving the Cleveland and Akron areas and welcoming flowers from across the U.S., I specialize in transforming wedding bouquets, memorial arrangements, and special-event flowers into heirloom pressed-flower art and meaningful keepsakes. Every piece is crafted with care so its beauty lasts long after the celebration.
For the past five years, I have dedicated myself to the art of flower preservation, creating custom botanical gifts and pressed flower keepsakes that honor your most sentimental moments. Whether you are looking for bridal bouquet preservation, memorial flower art, or a one‑of‑a‑kind botanical keepsake, I approach every design with artistry and precision to give your flowers a second life as timeless heirlooms.
I take pride in using flowers grown on our farm for many of my pressed and dried flower art pieces. When I cannot, I source locally grown blooms whenever possible to create meaningful botanical art rooted in sustainability. My work is about more than preservation; it is about connection, intentional design, and self‑expression.
To honor those values, I also offer creative botanical and nature‑based workshops that invite you to explore the joy of pressed‑flower art and experience the lasting beauty of preserved blooms.
Thanks for visiting & keep blooming!
Lauren, Artisan Florist & Flower Preservationist

DIY Bridal Party Workshop
If you are the bride who loves a good DIY win, this workshop is made for you. You’ve seen the influencers who saved hundreds by having a friend or family member preserve their bouquet. Sometimes it turns out amazing… and sometimes it really doesn’t. Wedding flowers are delicate and unpredictable, and trying to figure them out after the big day can feel stressful.

This experience is perfect for brides, bridesmaids, mothers, and close friends who want a fun, creative gathering that actually teaches a skill you’ll use. It’s a great way to get your crew on board, learn together, and make the whole thing feel like a shared project instead of a last‑minute scramble. You’ll learn how to press, dry, and preserve flowers using expert techniques while filling your presses with fresh blooms. You’ll head home with the tips, tricks, and know‑how to confidently preserve your special‑occasion flowers and create keepsakes you’ll love for years.
