Texas Pressed Flowers Blossoms

From Wedding Bouquet Preservation to Thriving Business

In July 2021, Texas Pressed Flowers bloomed into existence here in Dripping Springs. 

As a “DIY” bride, Elissa Gallegos crafted nearly everything for her big day. During this time, the trend of bouquet preservation gained popularity. Eager to immortalize her own wedding bouquet, she sought the guidance of a professional floral preservationist, attending classes to learn the art.

Post-wedding brought an exciting revelation: Gallegos could turn her creative passion into a business. Thus, Texas Pressed Flowers was born, with the intention of preserving cherished memories through the art of floral preservation. 

The support of Elissa’s husband, Anthony, proved instrumental in nurturing her budding company. With a background in business, Anthony assisted in website building, advertising, and most importantly, showing unwavering support for his wife. 

Going beyond bridal bouquets, Texas Pressed Flowers caters to everyone with a meaningful connection to blooms. From memorial arrangements to graduation flowers, anniversaries to prom corsages, they transform each sentiment into captivating floral art.

Now with a team of seven talented individuals, and Elissa’s dedication, Texas Pressed Flowers continues to preserve memories in Dripping Springs and beyond. Find them at TexasPressedFlowers.com or on social media @texaspressedflowers.
