How I got into weddings: It started with non-profit event planning straight out of college…which led to wedding planning…which ultimately led to floral design where my love of flowers and creating gorgeous florals was able to flourish!
Favorite thing about weddings in the South? The tradition! From the drinks to the food to heirlooms being passed down, old lace wrapped around a bouquet, bow ties and dancing, I love it all.
Favorite part of a wedding day? Absolutely, hands down, when I hand the bride her bridal bouquet and see the lovely glimmer and reaction in her eyes!
Favorite Southern city? Charleston, SC
Early bird or night owl? Early bird!
Favorite pie flavor? Gotta be apple pie!
Favorite biscuit topping? Butter my biscuit!
