About
Our Philosophy
Welcome to The Kept Petal, right in the heart of Charleston, South Carolina. We specialize in crafting exquisite pressed flower art from bridal bouquets and memorial keepsakes.
Our passion lies in preserving the profound symbolism of flowers for special occasions of love, remembrance, pride, and more. Dedicated to capturing life's meaningful moments by meticulously preserving your chosen flowers, we believe in creating unique, artistic keepsakes as timeless reminders of cherished memories.
Our Approach
At The Kept Petal, we pride ourselves on a personalized approach. Collaborating closely with you from the initial consultation, we provide updates on your flowers and artwork. The final mock-up is sent for your approval, ensuring we bring your vision to life in a meaningful and beautiful way.
Our careful preservation and framing techniques guarantee professional results.
Our Sustainability Commitment
At The Kept Petal, sustainability is at the heart of everything we do. We believe in honoring nature—not only through our art but also in the way we source, create, and package our products.
Mindfully Sourced & Crafted
Our frames are sourced within the U.S., supporting local businesses and reducing transportation emissions.
We reuse materials every week, ensuring that nothing goes to waste in our process.
Every design is crafted with longevity in mind—our preserved floral art is made to last, so you can cherish your memories for a lifetime.
Eco-Conscious Packaging & Services
We prioritize recyclable packaging to protect your florals while being kind to the environment.
We only serve local drop-offs. Shipping fresh flowers has a high ecological impact, so we focus on serving Charleston area weddings exclusively.
Planning a wedding outside of Charleston? We’ll help you find a local preservationist so your flowers can be saved sustainably.
To further minimize our footprint, we offer a box return program. Send back your packaging, and we’ll issue a refund—helping us reduce waste together.
