I am truly thankful for the chance to partner with H&R to create their custom bridal bouquet and groom's boutonniere. Our journey began at the last year, and by our last meeting on Tuesday, it felt like we had been friends forever!

H&R chose a stunning autumn theme for their special day, and we beautifully captured that seasonal magic in their floral designs.

This design holds a special place in my heart because it is my last custom bouquet. This decision was not made lightly, but I am excited for the new chapter that awaits. I have fully dedicated myself to this next floral adventure in the wedding industry, and I am immensely grateful for this journey! I will share more on that later this week.

A heartfelt thank you goes out to our outstanding local vendors for turning this event into a beautiful celebration of our community's vibrant essence. 💖

We spent this past weekend celebrating the love of S&J, surrounded by their closest friends + family.

This wasn’t your typical wedding — think whimsical gothic details, heavy metal vinyls, and so many unique touches. It was so them! They poured their hearts into every detail, and I was able to match their moody, romantic colour palette through the floral designs.

Our floral arrangements looked so dreamy throughout Trillium Trails. With the large windows and natural light, you’re surrounded by the beauty of the outdoors. Such a magical venue for saying “I do,” with the most wonderful coordinators making every detail seamless.

It was a pleasure S&J, we had so much fun working together and wish you all the best in the future ✨

I’m thrilled to have had the opportunity to meet and collaborate with A&R on their wedding designs. Our first encounter was at a bridal show at the OCC, we both agreed that the highlight of the event was the connection we made! 💖

They chose a special theme for their wedding day, and we incorporated those elements into their floral arrangements.

Each project presents an opportunity to combine innovative thinking with meticulous attention to detail, I strive to create something that not only meets but exceeds expectations. 💐

I still have some availability for 2025, but spots are limited. So, if you're still in need of a wedding florist or ceremony decor, please don’t hesitate to reach out soon! It's never too early to start planning.

Romantic, bold, moody 🖤

A few dusty pink, Morandi shades added to our rental arrangements completely changes the aesthetic. It adds ⁣a ‍touch of elegance without being too overpowering. I love this entire look!
