Good morning my loves – I hope you’re having a sensational week! Well it’s officially June and the end of wedding season. This time of year the floral jobs in the wedding space tend to slow down in Australia. The key season for most Australian cities is September to April so over the winter months when it’s cold and dreary, when no one wants to be outside from basically May – August it’s usually fairly light on for weddings. Don’t get me wrong, there are still weddings that take place – ...
Welcome back my loves!I’ve just returned from a wonderful two-week break with my family, and it was absolutely magnificent.

This year and in the coming years, my husband and I are prioritizing breaks, travel, and making time for our kids while they’re young. This season of life has ta...

Welcome back to The Bloom-Print Podcast! I'm thrilled to have you tuning in for another episode.2 years into my business I received a pretty baseless complaint from a bride tearing down every single thing I’d done and created for her wedding day. It cut me really deep. It really shook my confidence. I was then shitting myself for about 6 months every time I did a wedding that the bride wasn’t going to like or that I was going to get something wrong and my self-esteem plummeted. I wish I could...

It is no lie that the wedding and event industry is built on referral, word of mouth and connections. But it is really important not to be complacent in the thinking that business will just come to you. Yes, people will find you, yes, previous couples will recommend you – but you can’t rely on that alone to fill up your calendar (and your wage packet). If you’re not promoting yourself, if you’re not building connections and referrals – you don’t have a business. It honestly is that simple. If...
