Grace and Serendipity is a botanical preservation studio near Pensacola, Florida — where wedding and memorial flowers are preserved petal by petal, pressed by hand, and transformed into heirloom art you’ll treasure for the rest of your life.
Most preservation artists receive dried, shipped flowers days after a wedding, and press them as they arrive.
Working with brides whose weddings are in the Pensacola area only changes this entirely.
Bouquets are collected in person within three days of your wedding, while your blooms are still at peak color, form, and in fresh water in a vase … never placed sideways into a box.
Once received, every single flower is carefully taken apart petal by petal and pressed individually using techniques developed over years of practice, and hand-constructed into a custom art piece designed specifically around your flowers and your style.
You’ll see your design before anything is finalized, where you can make changes too …
The result is not only a keepsake, it’s a commissioned work of botanical art,
made entirely from the flowers of your most important day.
Your wedding day blooms are once in a lifetime flowers, and they deserve to be beautifully preserved. When it comes to creating a Bloom Collection with your flowers, we’ll work together to choose pieces you’ll treasure for always, to remember a life season you’ll never forget.
Whether you are looking for a Framed Piece to display on your wall, an Arched Resin Block to display on your bookshelf, jewelry to wear on a daily basis or even an ornament to adorn your Christmas Tree, I’ll create a bloom collection that will compliment your personalities + styles and help your flowers to be remembered the way you'd like them to be.
Due to the time needed to preserve your flowers well, we only work with a limited number of couples per wedding date. The preservation process begins before your wedding day, making sure our presses are prepped and ready to receive them. The only way to know that Kristin is available to preserve your blooms is if you reach out before your wedding day … not the day after.
If your wedding date is coming up, now is the right time to start the conversation.
hey hey hey, I’m Kristin! I'm a botanical artist based near Pensacola, Florida, and I've spent years developing a pressing technique built entirely around the humidity and climate of the Florida Gulf Coast … because what works everywhere else doesn't always work here.
I believe in the joy of petals, caring for them when they’re fresh and creating one of a kind pieces with them once they’re pressed.
I started with a garden. I grew from there. And now, I create pressed flower art, jewelry, and gifts in my studio, preserve blooms from days you want to remember for always, and know how important it is to take care of the petals belonging to a moment someone trusted me to keep forever.
I don't take that lightly. Not for a single petal.
