Coming Soon: Little Little Floral Productions
My name is Judy Chau, founder of Little Little Floral Production, and I am an events florist and Wedding Day of Coordinator. I believe that with the right guidance, anyone could host their special event, plan it without sacrificing their mental health, and enjoy it as well. This is why having the right guidance is crucial. I want my clients to know that working with me is as easy as learning their ABCs. You want someone adaptable, balanced, and calm on your side. As a result, your event would be tailor-made to your vision, not be out of balance, and the process of planning it would be as stress-free as it can be because you are working with someone calm and collected. You will absorb that energy.
I want to be that florist who puts people first. It is common for floral designers to want to do things their way with their distinct style. That is necessary as your cultivated design taste and training are what made you an expert and worthy of hiring. However, when it comes to planning a special event that is very meaningful and close to heart to the client (wedding, anniversary, childbirth, graduation, retirement, etc), we are here for them. We are here to assist them because they need our expertise. We are here to help them, not conjure up the next great thing that would make our portfolio and reputation even more amazing. I want to help those who want to be helped, whether it is planning their wedding or customizing a personalized bouquet for a special celebration. I am here to bring joy and colors into the lives of others through fresh-cut flowers and heartfelt design.
