I am still in shock! On Thursday, November 27, 2013 the Professional BC Wedding Awards took place at the Pinnacle Hotel at the Pier in North Vancouver and I was lucky enough to win Best Wedding Florist – Overall.

You can see the photos from the submission (Anjali & Alex, July 2013) on my Facebook page or here on my blog.

Those who know me know that this means a lot to me – I am a small florist from the island – and it is an honour to be a finalist with companies like Just Fresh Concepts and Sunflower Florist.

As some of you know, 100% of my business is from referrals and online, but I wanted everyone to know that I have a team of great friends, family and colleagues who all pitch in to help and I couldn’t do what I do without them.

Thanks again to Vasia Weddings who’s stunning photos I used for the submission and to the team at Petite Pearl Events for their exceptional planning of this wedding. Congratulations to all the winners and finalist of the Professional BC Wedding Awards.
