Unfazed Floral

Baptism flowers for the sweetest family .le.parc

What was supposed to be my biggest flex turned into my biggest flop.

Actually, just straight up failure.

There’s so much to unpack about Colombia but man how I wish I could turn back the clock and do everything differently. But I can’t. That’s honestly one of the reasons I love weddings so much. You get one shot at it and that pressure fuels me. But this time it failed me and basically brought me to the lowest low I’ve felt. Ever.

When it comes down to it, it was completely my fault. I should have gone with my gut more. I should have utilized my incredible suppliers here. They offered to help me from the very beginning but I ended up going with a supplier recommendation there that ended up being the biggest scam of my life. Shipments were late, arrived at random gas stations on hot passenger busses, flowers were totally rotten or the wrong colour or just didn’t come at all. I got scammed for my entire fruit order. Literally none of it arrived. Everything snowballed so hard and so fast it actually makes me want to cry even thinking back on it.

The whole situation has bruised my ego so hard that I’ve basically been sick for an entire month. The feeling of disappointing someone on the most important day of their life literally wakes me up at night and I never want to feel this way again.

I could never post about this and pretend it never happened but I think I’m writing this because I need to shed this feeling and take everything I’ve learned and all of the challenges I’ve faced and turn it back into fuel.

Besides my child and my family, Unfazed Floral is the most important thing in my life and I truly love what I do. I’ve built this thing that lets me create something different every single week and nothing has ever made me as happy or proud. I just want to be proud again and not feel like a complete failure anymore.

So yeah… I’m fighting a little extra to prove myself to myself this year.

I’m very grateful and sorry to the people who came to with me to support me. I never really got to thank them properly.

Once the sting has worn off we should probably find some empanadas around here
