I am so grateful for the wonderful people that
I have got to meet that work in the wedding industry. Vancouver’s wedding community
may seem big but is in fact quite small and is made of tight knit groups of
amazing professionals who are excellent at throwing breathtaking events while
having fun and supporting each others when help is needed. I have met and made
many friends through this industry.
While I most often shy away from networking
events, often for being self conscious of English not being my first language,
I have still managed to meet many amazing individuals through many events,
weddings, or styles shoot collaborations . To me each event is a chance to see my
friends and to make new ones.
Few
weeks ago, a Persian magazine asked to feature our shop in their next cycle and
gave us only few days notice to create new arrangements of their specific vision and send them the snaps
for the publication. Due to the time constraints of being busy with several events and knowing summer is busy
time for everyone, I was ready to just grab my cell phone and take some shots
and send it over for the submission! However,since our boutique shop is always filled with several arrangements prepared for our next wedding, the lack of space for taking any
pictures was becoming a big challenge.
So I called up my friend Min from Infinity Luxury Linens & Décor and see if I can use her beautiful décor
space. She graciously not only offered me her beautiful space and décor , but
also asked our talented friend Kim from Kim-James photography to join us to
photograph the floral arrangements. I received the beautiful pictures this week and am in awe of
Kim’s beautiful work. I can not thank these two kind ladies enough who so
selflessly offered their time and space in such short notice only to help a
friend.
I
love all my wonderful industry friends . All of them.
