After 25 incredible years, it's time for me to close this chapter.
As I reflect on everything this business has meant to me, I realise just how many wonderful people have been part of the journey. I don't want this post to be about sadness—I simply want to say thank you.
To my daughter, Danielle, thank you for standing beside me and running the business with me for the last 13 years. I couldn't have wished for a better partner on this journey.
To Charly, thank you for holding the fort and running everything so efficiently while I was away and during the times my injury meant I couldn't be there. Your dedication has meant so much.
To all of my Saturday girls, thank you. You have all played such an important part in making the shop what it was, and we truly couldn't have done it without you.
To my husband, thank you for your unwavering support, both physically and emotionally. You've been there through every high and every low.
To my family and friends, thank you for every bit of help, encouragement and support you've given over the years.
To all of our suppliers over the years, thank you for your support, professionalism and the wonderful relationships we've built together. Your trust, service and belief in our business have helped us create so many special moments for our customers, and we are truly grateful for the part you've played in our journey.
A special thank you to Sheila and Alison for your years of continued support and loyalty. It has never gone unnoticed.
And to my dear friend Helen—thank you for being my rock, especially after I made the difficult decision to close. Your friendship has carried me through more than you'll ever know.
Finally, and most importantly, to every single customer who has walked through our doors over the last 25 years—thank you. Without your support, loyalty and trust, none of this would have been possible. Reading all of your kind messages and comments following the announcement of our closure has been overwhelming in the best possible way.
Thank you for every memory, every recommendation, every smile and every dress that became part of someone's special day.
From the bottom of my heart, I appreciate this incredible journey. I will always be grateful.
