First Blog

Welcome to Rockingham Bridal's first Blog. Our goal is to supply the Bride with a Friendly and Professional service, and to see the smile on her face when we deliver her Wedding Flowers :)

My name is Steff and I am the first person you speak to, be it on the phone, via email or at one of the Wedding Expo's. You may also talk to Rowan, who attends the Wedding Expo's and is the Florist who will meet with you and desgin your Wedding Flowers. Rowan has over 20 years experience in the Wedding Flower industry, so is proving to be a fantastic teacher to me and Ken, our Florist in training. Ken works behind the scenes at the moment, you may see him at some of the Wedding Expo's, otherwise he will be assisting Rowan where possible and learning from her expertise.

Now you have met the team it's time to find out why Rockingham Bridal started. As Rowan and I both had Weddings last year we know what it is like to plan them and the process can be very overwhelming. We were both out of work, Rowan's Employer was changing hands and I had a baby to look after. We decided to start a Wedding Floristry business that we could operate from home with flexible hours. I was already operating another Business so I knew how to set up and run one, and Rowan had the expertise in the industry. Some people have asked us why we started up a Wedding Floristry business as you work into the early hours of the morning creating Bouquets for the Brides that day, keeping them as fresh as possible. The answer is very simple, the rewards are tenfold when the Bride see's her Wedding Flowers, and if we are lucky enough we get to witness her face when she walks into the Reception Hall and see it decorated with lovely flowers :)

I will post some photos soon of our room we have set up. This is where you will meet Rowan or myself to disucss your Wedding plans.
