In 2020, Hope channeled her dual passions for art and service into founding Olive Branch Studios, a venture initially dedicated to creating pressed flower art to support her mission work. Her unique approach quickly gained traction, allowing her to blend creativity with philanthropy effectively. By nearly 2023, Olive Branch Studios expanded its offerings to include wedding bouquet preservation, catering to brides eager to immortalize their special day through floral keepsakes. This expansion marked a pivotal moment for the company, aligning with a growing trend in the wedding industry and setting the stage for further growth.
The burgeoning demand for Hope’s floral creations soon outgrew the confines of her apartment, necessitating a move to a larger space and the assembly of a dedicated team of designers and floral preservation specialists. This transition from a small-scale operation to a bustling studio was essential in meeting the increasing requests for their services. The company’s evolution was further bolstered by the arrival of Carly in late 2023. Carly’s expertise in marketing and wedding photography complemented Hope’s artistic vision, allowing Olive Branch Studios to broaden its reach and enhance its reputation as a leader in floral preservation.
Together, Hope and Carly have transformed Olive Branch Studios from a passionate hobby into a thriving business. Their partnership has been instrumental in scaling operations and establishing the company as a prominent name in the wedding industry and beyond. Today, Olive Branch Studios operates from a larger facility, equipped to handle a high volume of floral preservation projects, ensuring that each bouquet is treated with the utmost care and artistry.
At the heart of Olive Branch Studios lies a mission to capture the beauty of life’s significant moments through expert floral preservation. The company is committed to delivering personalized, high-quality services that honor and celebrate memories, whether from weddings, special occasions, or everyday milestones. As a Christ-centered, female-owned business, Olive Branch Studios upholds core values of personalization, timelessness, transparency, and community, reflecting their dedication to creating meaningful, lasting pieces of art.
Looking ahead, Olive Branch Studios envisions leading the industry with authenticity and fostering genuine relationships. Their goal is to craft sentimental keepsakes that preserve the allure of florals, celebrating the moments that matter most. More than just a preservation service, Olive Branch Studios embodies a celebration of life’s cherished memories, committed to transforming fleeting beauty into enduring art.
