And just like that, this Boutique chapter has come to a close. These past few days have been the ultimate rollercoaster of emotions but being surrounded by so many phenomenal Brides collecting their girls (and looking like a tribe of goddesses in their chosen handmade outfits) has been the best tonic! So, as I sit here tonight and think about every individual that’s stepped through these doors, every belly laugh conversation, every tear we’ve shared, from my first Bride, Emma, to my final Bride, Mel… from each designer I’m proud to call friends before business partners thank you, truly, these have been the best years of my life. FACT! And if there is a legacy from the Boutique then I hope it’s encouraged everyone to vote with their money and support small businesses, and I don’t just mean within Bridal - I mean from coffee shops, florists, cafes - don’t let the big corporations win! Support who YOU believe in, and when it comes to weddings I hope you remember to do Bridal YOUR way! There are no rules, so don’t stick to any - represent you and your teammate! Always! And finally - never shy away from pursuing your dreams, make it happen, no one else will do it for you and trust me, you will NEVER regret it! And on that note… it’s time for me to turn the lights off one last time, wipe away these tears of joy & pride and head home to the most supportive hot-husband who had promised me a pastry & a comforting spiced chai before we pack those rucksacks for the Himalayas… nôs da Boutique world, I’ve loved you and the life you’ve helped me to create. Namaste team, go make your dreams a reality ✨
