Amelia is the founder and CEO of Pressed Bouquet Shop. Initially, pressing and framing flowers was a hobby inspired by a single white rose, framed with a note by her grandmother. Starting with her own homegrown zinnias, Amelia soon realized the power of preserving a memory. With her education in business and marketing mixing perfectly with her talent for design and her entrepreneurial spirit, she forged a path towards helping others keep their precious memories. In the fall of 2019, Pressed Bouquet Shop was born. At first a one-woman show, she has built a team of creative and trusted people who are dedicated to the same sense of sentiment and artistry that has inspired her.
