Ladies and gents, after many DMs, comments and emails, it is time to fill you in on what has been happening at Urban Blooms Ottawa over the past month. Normally, I would be posting today to announce our Mother's Day Pop-Up, however there has been a change in plans!
Over the past year, I have put so much energy, blood (from rose thorns) sweat (from carrying buckets of blooms up and down the stairs) and tears (both happy and sad) into building this budding business and social community. Urban Blooms Ottawa truly became my "baby" and I am so thankful for all the support and encouragement I have received from our clients, followers, friends and family 💜
As some of you know, I recently married the love of my life and this was the beginning of an adventure of a lifetime! At the same time, my husband accepted a promotion which has brought us to ✈️ SEATTLE, Washington 🇺🇸
With just a few weeks notice, it is needless to say that we have been through a whirlwind. As I get older, I have realized that sometimes you just have to jump in with two feet and say YES to new adventures!
This news and big move does sadly mean that Urban Blooms Ottawa will be coming to an end and there will be no future pop-ups for now. This was an incredibly hard post to write, as this has been the most incredible year! The sense of community that has quickly grown around this little business warms my heart and I am so proud that together we surpassed the goals that were originally set on day one.
What does the future look like for me? Leaving behind my 9 to 5 career job and my lovely Urban Blooms Ottawa, means that I have a blank canvas to work with! Once we are settled in I will look for my next opportunity, but Seattle is the perfect place for a budding Florist with all the flower markets and farm fresh blooms! To keep in touch and stay up to date with our adventure, please follow my personal account and stay tuned for the launch of my new lifestyle blog later this month! There will definitely be beautiful blooms making guest appearances! 🌺
Finally, all I can say is THANK YOU to each and everyone of you for the love & support!
