​

With years of experience in a corporate, busy industry, I was no stranger to hard work, pressure and deadlines. In 2007, I was looking for an exciting new challenge and an opportunity to open my own business. With a keen interest and talent for interior design, coupled with my love for the outdoors, nature and people, Oopsie Daisy Flowers was born. 

​​

My business is entirely built on faith and from humble beginnings, 15 years later, Oopsie Daisy Flowers celebrates as the leader in Floral Design in South Africa, servicing our clients with luxury bespoke events. I build strong relationships with my clients and suppliers and my greatest pleasure is a satisfied corporate client and seeing our happy Bride and Groom have the perfect day. I am extremely passionate about my company and my team and when looking for the right staff, I employ character and integrity over experience. I believe in empowerment and sharing my skills.  Seeing God’s hand in our company’s growth, we currently employ 19 staff members to help make dreams come true.

​​

I have been happily married to Ruan since 2009 and our children are two lovable dogs and a bossy cat. We are fortunate to now both work in the events industry and therefore have the privilege of seeing each other more often than in the past.  My Mom, Evelyn has been part of Oopsie Daisy from the start, being my best cheerleader and supporting me all the way. I have a strong sense of family and come from a very close knit unit. South Africa runs through my veins, I love visiting my favourite place, The Kruger and I have a deep love for animals.  
 

I am excited to see all that God has in store for Oopsie Daisy in the coming years!

 

1 Corinthians 2:9, NLT

'No eye has seen, no ear has heard, and no mind has imagined what God has prepared for those who love Him.'

 

My favourite quote is "Bloom where God has planted you!"
