It all began with my love of nature. However, I never dreamed that my love for plants and flowers would turn into a full time job. During high school, I worked at a plant nursery. Then, for my freshman year of college, I studied Environmental Horticulture at Gwinnett Technical College. That is where I learned a wealth of plant knowledge and took an intro floral design class.
Shortly after, I was asked by a few family friends to do their wedding florals, and I was over the moon. I could not believe they trusted me with something so important. I had to figure out the process as I went.
During the next two years, I danced at Kennesaw State University. All the while, doing weddings whenever I could find time. I had to figure out pricing, using a wholesale account, and finding answers for the many questions that nervous brides would ask me. After I did my first two weddings, word of mouth and social media brought me new clients. I began to do weddings and events for people I did not personally know. Fast Forward three years and I am booking out 2 years in advance. It is a dream come true.
