With 🙏🏽 and 🤍 we wanted to let everyone know this. What is meant to be will be and we cannot wait to show you what we have coming. We will introduce you to our team shortly- truly my very own ‘Charlies Angels’

Working diligently in the office to catchup from the last crazy month and get all designs, budgets, websites and updates out.

Remember people- be kind, be truthful and do not bite any hand that feeds you! A flower des not think of competing with the flower next to it, it just blooms and is appreciated for its’ own beauty!

In february we had a 5 day wedding program for a group of 122 people, with concierge services for many, customized welcome bags for all and various daytime & evening events in addition to the wedding itself. The lovely bride and concierge clients have since left me some wonderful reviews in addition to other recent brides and clients. Thank you again to all clients who made February such a busy & wonderful month… 🤍

Please note-We are in office this week to finalize all designs and budgets for april-july weddings and next week august-2024.

We welcome new clients and enquiries at this time also as our diary is filling up rapidly for the remainder of the year and 2024.

I saw this months ago but decided to be bold and post it today on international womens day! Lets get raw ….

There are sooo many things I LOVE about being female- as a wife, a mama, a business owner, a daughter ,a sister and everything else that comes with that title. I am proud of the balancing act we manage everyday and the strides we have taken as females to get to where we are today….BUT with that comes the other stuff….
The hardships, the challenges and the frustrations!

As a female entrepreneur and to be quite open a white ,expat female entrepreneur I have experienced my fair share of comments from others about the way in which I operate or - and this one gets me- how I react when people let me down or cause me problems. One vendor who had been booked for months and had been speaking to the bride for weeks simply just double booked the date and then didn’t show up to someones wedding, ghosted us both but then insinuated I was rude to call THEM unprofessional- thats just one example of what I deal with. Hotel workers have asked “who does that white lady think she is” (in patois) when I merely ask them to do the job they’re there to do on a wedding.

This video hit the nail on the head!

Forgetting race or nationality, I am very aware of often referred to as being brash or bossy for simply doing my job thoroughly / on time and asking those who have been hired to do the same and be professional!

I have been told I prioritize work too much when I have two young kids but I can never really win- if I take time to be a human and have my evenings I am neglecting clients, If I am working extra hours to ensure that my business runs seaslmlessly then I am a neglectful mama.

If a man raises his voice or gets (rightfully) irritated by someone simply not working or not doing the right thing whilst working for him- he is a bold, brilliant and powerful business man BUT a woman is a b*tch. When a man juggles a busy company, his kids and a household he is a superhero, a woman is just a busy woman.

So i post and proudly stand by the message in this video (thanks @katherineheigl ) - be bold, be brave, have boundaries and ladies don’t let anyone give u 💩

We are eagerly awaiting the pictures from this one

We are eagerly awaiting the pictures from this one but in the meantime heres a few more sneak peeks. The one thing that caused us a lot of problems on the day was the weather- it was going back and forth between bright sunshine and blue skies to rain, overcast & hurricane winds which caused issues in setting up and being on ladders etc through to the florals at the ceremony refusing to hold in place and table flowers falling. We had to sacrifice the tall vases at dinner and make some last minute contingency changes as a result but we are super happy with the final product and more importantly the couple were too! 🤍🥰
