Pretty in Stains

What started in 2011 as wedding planning and stationery design turned into something I never imagined, an incredible love affair with flowers. My floral journey began when a client asked me to do their wedding flowers over a decade ago, and I said yes (with zero formal training!).

Back then, flower courses were rare, so I learned the hard but rewarding way: freelancing for anyone who would give me a chance, watching countless tutorials, and practicing until I found my own style.

Now, I specialise in creating romantic, modern, and whimsical weddings, with flowers that are always premium, whether sourced locally or imported.

I’m known for being patient, detail-driven, and deeply committed to giving couples what they dream of, while being realistic and transparent about budgets. I never over-promise, but I’ll always go the extra mile to make it work.

While this business is my own passion and creation, I’ve been lucky to have my husband Ettiene cheering me on from the start, helping me at weddings in those early days and sharing my love for flowers. His own journey in the floral world led him to become the owner of Groenigheid, one of Southern Africa’s largest floral importers. His work has opened incredible doors for florists across Sub-Saharan Africa, and I’m so proud of how our shared love for flowers has grown into something bigger than we ever imagined.

At heart, I’m still that planner who said, “Okay, I’ll do your flowers” all those years ago, grateful, passionate, and honoured to bring your love story to life in every detail, and moment.
