Juniper Floral Studio

Specialties: Bridal bouquets, handwoven garlands, and floral design

I'm the owner and lead designer of Juniper Floral Studio 👋🏻 ⁠ I love seeing the joy on a client's face when they first experience one of our floral designs and am passionate about bringing wonder, delight and romance to weddings across the Greater Toronto Hamilton Area. ⁠

⁠
Speaking of romance, I married my best friend, Jordan back in 2018 at a beautiful microbrewery in Collingwood. We tied the knot surrounded by friends and family over beer and BBQ. ⁠We currently reside in Hamilton on the beach, where we've lived for nine years and we've made the lower level of our house into the floral studio. Although Jordan has a full-time job, he helps out immensely with all things Juniper and I don't know what I would do without him. ⁠I'm an only child and my parents who are recently retired, work for Juniper as well! It truly is a family affair. ⁠
⁠
Back in 2019, Jordan and I added a cute pup named Kino to our clan, he's a golden lab, who loves endless games of tug-of-war, treats, and long walks on the beach! ⁠
⁠

In our spare time when we aren't consumed by all things business, you can find us at the rock-climbing gym, hiking with Kino, trying new restaurants or re-visiting old favourites - we are self-proclaimed foodies!⁠
⁠
I love to read and listen to business-related podcasts like Work Party and Goal Digger, and when I need some downtime I hit the gym, shop, or watch T.V. (who doesn't love a true crime documentary)?! ⁠

Specialties: Prep, set-ups, and installations

First mom and now colleague, I started helping my daughter Kate with Juniper Floral Studio back when she created it in August 2018. I had previously retired after 44 years as an education secretary and was excited to take on a new challenge.

Since starting with Juniper Floral Studio, I have had the joyful opportunity to buy on behalf of weddings and events, design unique arrangements and install beautiful setups at various venues across the GTA.⁠ I love meeting new people and listening to their stories, so floral was a natural fit for me.

In my spare time I enjoy reading, camping, and knitting. In the summer, we take road trips to Southampton, taking pit stops along the way, visiting new communities, shops, and restaurants along Lake Huron.

Specialties: Boutonnieres, flower crowns, garlands, installations, and calligraphy

Born and raised in Sudbury, I moved to Toronto about ten years ago. I work as a Public Health Nurse, but I have also joined Juniper Floral Studio to express my creative side. I started my floral journey prepping flowers for weddings and worked my first pop-up shop during Mother’s Day. My role has expanded, and I love designing boutonnieres and corsages which both take a lot of patience and finesse. ⁠

I’m always striving for perfection, whether it’s in the kitchen or making flower arrangements. I’m not afraid to give my opinion or to take the time to do things the right way. ⁠ Afterall, working with flowers is much more relaxing than my day job!

I learned calligraphy to bullet journal, but I now put the skill to use designing our custom, hand-written name tags and notes for our arrangements, including for wedding parties. These keepsakes are near and dear to my heart.

I live in the Hamilton beach area with my fiancé and two miniature schnauzers; Penny & Gus, follow their journey @omgpennyandgus⁠

⁠If I’m not hanging out and doing activities with my dogs, you can find me in the kitchen trying new recipes, practicing calligraphy in my Bullet Journal and watching my favorite YouTubers.⁠

My favorite foods are pizza, Thai green curry and salmon Poke bowls. I explore different restaurants in Hamilton every month with my fiancé and I are always up for suggestions 🍕
