Today I’m introducing one of our  fabulous Directory members – a fantastic floristry design studio owned by Sally Thompson of Blushing Blooms. Blushing Blooms creates the most beautiful bouquets of stunning blooms – each one different, each unique to the couple and their personal wedding style. I’m especially fond of Sally’s use of Australia natives – they’re some of my favourite flowers in the world and I’m always tickled pink when Sally uses them (as she does so beautifully!).

To learn a little more about Blushing Blooms we asked Sally five questions in five minutes!

What is your favourite after five drink?

I’ll have a vodka, lime and soda thanks!

Your favourite weekend getaway?

Working as a florist and specialising in weddings – i.e. weekend work – means I don’t get to ‘get away’ that much. I love to head to Terrigal (NSW) for a quick break but when time permits ideally you will find me shopping, eating and checking out fabulous floral inspiration in Melbourne!

Favourite restaurant?

Locally (I live in Sydney’s Hills District) I love Toki Fans Japanese at Norwest. Delicious, fresh and super friendly!

What can we find you eating for breakfast on a Sunday morning?

Mostly on a Sunday morning I like to sleep in, over eating, as I have generally worked a wedding set up the day before. If I’m not sleeping I’ll be in the studio as we are open seven days. Then you can find me with a slice of Vegemite toast in hand!

Your favourite wedding story?

We were just part of an amazing proposal inspired by the Will Smith movie Hitch. You know the scene where the deliveries just keep on coming with the walkie-talkie in the box? One of our clients did his own version of this for his girlfriend. It was exiting, fun and back in the studio we were all on baited breath to hear that she said yes! Romance (and ingenuity!) is not dead ladies!
