Wedding season began a few weeks ago, here in flower land. We were so fortunate to have our first wedding of the season take place at the Highland’s Country Club in Garrison, NY (yes, pictures will be coming!). We had the pleasure of working with one of the most delightful couples, who happened to have very simple delivery requirements. So when I realized I would have the majority of the day free, I opted to take the rest of the day and head over to Cold Spring and Bear Mountain with Bryan and the little ones!
This type of business can be brutal on my family and social life at times. For me, what has worked best is finding little pockets of time, not stressing over the small things, and just making it work. Case in point: the evening before and the morning of any wedding delivery day is very hurried and stressful, so we didn’t even think about lunch. We opted to grab a pizza in Cold Spring, and ate it at the park; out of the box on paper plates. The kids loved their “pizza picnic,” and we were the envy of all the other little ones there. I’m sure other types of parents would have packed a perfect picnic lunch, complete with all of the toddler utensils and whatnot. Not a flower mommy, I don’t always have that luxury; although I did pack drinks and snacks 😉
What a GREAT start to 2013! Cheers Mompreneurs!
