Smart Floral Art is a flower preservation studio located in beautiful Lancashire, just north of Manchester, but preserving flowers all over the UK.We're a haven for creativity where wedding bouquets are pressed, preserved and framed in a modern way.Each piece is handmade to order and entirely unique. Our aim is to capture the treasured memories from your perfect day to be admired for years to come.Our journey began with a personal quest for something different as I tried and failed to find a way to preserve my own beautiful wedding bouquet.​I was frustrated by the fussy, old-fashioned and overpriced options, so decided to learn and give it a go myself. After a lot of trial, error and boundless perseverance, I mastered the skill that took me right back to the basics of traditional flower pressing. The result has been the creation of something I'm truly proud of. And not just hang in my own home, but something I'm proud to offer for everyone getting married and looking to preserve their memories. Our almost monthly workshops based in our studio in Accrington are continually a sell out, we often host workshops externally around the North West and also provide corporate workshops with some of our past clients being Selfridges, Organic Pharmacy and Agua Fabrics.We have exhibited for the past three years at Manchester Flower Show, providing a display along with workshops and in 2024 we had our first trade stand at Tatton Flower show which was a huge success.​
