Hi, I'm Heather!
I'm the floral designer, wedding planner, floral preservation artist, dog mom to Lucy, and the calm presence behind Once Upon A Bloom.
I create calm, thoughtful celebrations that allow couples to feel present, joyful, and genuinely cared for throughout their wedding experience.
Weddings have always been part of my life in one way or another, and I feel incredibly grateful that the work I get to do every day is something I truly love.
My Story
Once Upon A Bloom began during a season when I was searching for purpose and learning to trust God's plan for my life. After earning my business degree from the University of Alabama (Roll Tide!), I started a traditional career while continuing to work weddings on the side, coordinating weddings and helping Mom with catering whenever I could. A career in the wedding industry had always been the dream, but I was convinced that would never be a reality.
As I continued praying and seeking clarity, God made it clear that He had a different path planned for me, which ultimately led Mom and I to launch Classic Catering & Events together. As I continued working closely with weddings, I discovered floral design, and that was when everything truly clicked and the idea of Once Upon A Bloom was planted.
The Once Upon A Bloom Experience
At Once Upon A Bloom, the focus is simple: creating weddings that feel calm, joyful, and entirely your own. By bringing effortlessly elegant florals, seamless planning, and meaningful preservation together, I’m able to guide each couple through the process with thoughtful organization, intentional design, and a steady, supportive presence from beginning to end.
Every detail is created with care so you can breathe easy, feel fully present, and truly savor the moments that matter most on your wedding day.
