A little about yourself and what you have to offer this wedding community?
I make very beautiful flowers out of ribbon. Silk, satins, velvet, organza, taffeta are the most common types of ribbon I use but there really is no limit to what I can do and what type of flowers I can make and of course, there is no job too big or too small. I make bridal headpieces. Incorporating flowers or any type of ruching, braiding or embellishments with ribbon to enhance the look of your garments is also my specialty.
Do you have a wedding website, blog, or registry link?

  • Floral Preservation

    Hi Michele!
    I do have customers a few times a year that come to me with bouqets that are in too poor of condition to be preserved. I sometimes offer to replace thier flowers but can be a pain.
    I would definaltely try to send them your way.
    Ive never seen anything like it!
    What have you been doing to get out there?
    Do you do bridal shows...I can see that being a big hit for you!
    How far you u from NYC?

    Thank you for your wonderful comment and also thanks for accepting the friend request. I would love to network with you with the brides. Do you service the NY and NJ area I'm not to sure by reading the city you are located unless you meant to write Long Island. Your flowers are beautiful.
    I not only do hair I do makeup as well. I have a good Holiday also.

    Have a good one

    Hi Michele,
    I did take a look at your website. I really like what you have! You are very talented! I know well how much skill and time goes into making those flowers. When I use to design wedding gowns I made had to do this from time to time. I look forward to networking with you. And I will certainly keep you in mind when my wedding alterations clients are looking for something special to add to their gowns. I still do re-designing and embellishing to bridal gowns. I don't know if you want to go global but I have traffic averaging over 1000 unique visits a day from about 30 different countries. Brides in different parts of the world send me emails looking for dresses and questions about picking and altering their gowns. One top page I have on my website that ranks high in the search engines is "unique wedding dresses." For that term I am in the top 10 searches globally. Your ribbon flowers are a great way to make a wedding dress unique. I the brides that visit my site I think would like your accessories. I would like to talk with you more on this. Contact me through email or through my website contact form.

    Looking forward to hearing from you!

    It's funny you say you aren't always at the computer. I'm not normally either. I have taken a 2 week break from my business. This past year has been the best, business wise, I have had in the 25 years I have been in business. So I decided to take a break before next years bridal season begins to rest and work on my website, since it is the vehicle driving customers my way. That's why I am at the computer. Putting up more pages and trying to network with other vendors. Once March through October hits, I only have time to answer emails from brides. No time to really work the website. I do all alterations by myself, no help, and serve a very large area, including adjoining states. I have found out Brides will travel long distances to get what they want. So I am trying to prepare before next years season begins. But I do agree that what you do is rare. And yes I am going to contact you. Here is my phone number also 757-850-3282. There are some directories I know of you might want to add yourself to that are free. They have helped my business a lot.
    Be in touch!
