Where It All Began
Our story starts back in 1990, when Trish Bruno opened a charming little flower shop called Simply Roses Florist. Specializing in—what else—roses, Simply Roses grew into a beloved full-service florist over the next 30 years. Trish’s daughters, Ashlee and Carlee, carried on the family tradition of spreading floral joy, and in 2014 Ashlee and her husband officially took the reins.
The Birth of Blessed & Pressed
After 25 years of making magic with fresh flowers, Trish felt the pull of a new adventure. Brides were asking for more than just dried bouquets, they wanted meaningful art that would last forever. And so, Blessed & Pressed was born.
What began as a florist’s creative experiment quickly blossomed into a full preservation studio, where bouquets and special arrangements are transformed into lasting works of art.
