My world has always been to support Detroit in its revitalization, however I could. From door knocking for local political candidates when I was 17, to working in underprivileged schools for six years, getting my master's degree in Urban Planning from Wayne State University, advocating for a quality transit system, and recruiting talent for the city during the great recession. I have been a small business owner for seven years now and want to keep our small "mom and pop" feel for events and expand our reach into Detroit and into the community by having a one stop shop for events, planning, and florals.
I started working in a floral shop at sixteen and shortly after, I started having dreams (literal dreams), of owning a floral business. In the dream, my child would come to the studio after school and do homework while I made flower arrangements. It was a reoccurring dream that stopped once he was born and I decided to make my dream a reality. He gave me strength to listen to my gut and I have not stopped since. Prior to the pandemic, there seemed to be a venue shortage in the city as well and continually increased prices. Since the pandemic, wedding and event trends are changing. Due to so many events having to be rescheduled, PEOPLE are looking at two year waiting lists. Couples and families also want a unique and intimate experience that is COVID-friendly, easy, and environmentally sustainable.
