Oh hello dusty rose! This colour palette is perfection! Oh and did you notice the king protea in the bouquets?! When helping Amanda and Steve design their wedding, they wanted to pop in a unique floral touch so I suggested the weird and wonderful protea (which they incorporated into their stationery as well). ⠀⠀
I actually can't tell you how happy it makes me to have wonderful clients who trust and embrace our help along the way. ⠀⠀

Shout out to my girl @lauren_blushandbowties! Lauren has been on the team since 2017 and has made such a huge difference @blushandbowties. She had a killer season last year and kicked off the season this week. Love this lady and am so proud of her. Double tap and give her some love.

I was perusing through this lovely shoot from last year today (featured on @greylikes whoo!) and I was reminded of where I was at this time last year. I had just wrapped the Blush Creative 2 day workshop and the next morning we had the shoot scheduled at the B & B studio. I rarely get sick - but during the workshop I got reaaaaal sick - like couldn't talk, feed me soup on the couch, please don't move or make a sound sick. ⠀⠀ *

I was so looking forward to this shoot and knew I couldn't let down all the amazing people rearing to make it happen so I mustered up some will and we made it happen. It was a wonderful day. But I was wiped. During this time last year, I felt so tired, so worn, I was physically and mentally weak. Truth is - I've struggled with making my health a priority while running my business. ⠀⠀
Until now.
*⠀⠀
The last month and a half I've finally established realistic routines and a balance I've been struggling to find for many many years. A couple major factors have contributed to this shift. Living in the country (hello pretty nature walks) and Adam quitting his job and joining B & B (we now have the time to meal prep and workout together). Plus I just got to a point where I knew a change needed to happen. It just wasn't an option anymore.
*⠀⠀
I'm happy to say I'm feeling like a new woman. And to be honest - that is my goal here. I just want to feel better, live more fully, and have lots of energy. In the past I've let emails and work consume my life and take precedence over everything else. I've learned first hand how destructive this can be to the mind and body.
*⠀⠀
I know lots of my pals out there struggle with the whole work/heath/balance thing too - so sending you good vibes today.

I’m going into my 7th wedding season this year (crazy!!) and along the way, I’ve made some mistakes. When I first started planning, couples would come to me with lower end budgets that frankly weren’t too realistic. Instead of piping up, I tried to help them cut corners (aka taking on tasks that really weren’t in my wedding planner roster.)
⠀⠀
One task I found myself taking on was helping with flowers. Young, silly 27 year old Alex was like “how hard can it be? Throw a couple blooms into a vase and boom! Centrepiece.”
⠀⠀
🤦🏼‍♀️
⠀⠀
I very quickly learned the errors of my way and that a wedding planner is not a florist! Since then, my respect my florists has blossomed (you get it?? 😉)
⠀⠀
I’m proud to say now that I think we’ve worked and continue to work with Toronto’s best florists. I see the care, insane talent and artistry, back breaking labour, and dedication that goes into being a florist. The skill needed to choose the right tones, textures, source unique flora and foliage is beyond.
⠀⠀
So if you know a florist. Go give em a hug.

So many reasons why I love this pic. My crew and I lugged these plants, flowers and those 2 monster arrangements from the ceremony room and they were damn heavy. Add in a set of stairs, well needless to say it was a workout!!
⠀⠀
Once we got them on the stage, we stepped back and we were covered in branches and leaves. We were literally picking twigs out of our hair. But once we got a glance at how these greens completely transformed the stage I was floored. ⠀⠀
Pro tip! Invest a bit of moula in your ceremony flowers and find ways to repurpose these items over dinner! More bang for your buck! Oh yah and hire wedding planners cause we don’t mind doing a bit of heavy lifting on the day and will always find creative way to beautify the space!
