What if the happiest day of your life leaves you feeling empty afterward? Join me as we explore the unexpected experience of post-wedding blues, shared from my unique perspective as a newlywed and floral designer. In this episode of The Flower Files, I open up about the emotional rollercoaster that follows the intricate wedding planning process. The journey is filled with joy and challenges. As we navigate the emotional aftermath, I discuss how reliving those cherished wedding moments through photos and thank-you cards can help soothe the transition.

Balancing the dual role of being both a bride and a vendor in the wedding industry was no easy task. The excitement, impatience, and occasional longing during the buildup to the wedding are heartfelt and relatable. We reflect on the bittersweet end of this long-anticipated event and the natural lull that follows. Maintaining a work-life balance, leaning on loved ones, and prioritizing self-care becomes essential as I adjust to life post-wedding.
