Hi!
I'm Amy Anderson Peck, Fantabulous Floral Designer Extraordinaire or so I've
been told :) I thoroughly enjoy creating unique and fun floral
arrangements, hence the reason I've spent most of waking hours for the past 14
years doing so. Sometimes I laugh as I reflect on my high school days working
with flowers at a local Hy-Vee grocery store. From there, I attended college
and worked as a Floral Designer at a few shops around town, learning from other
designers.
After
College I attended Stuppy Floral Design School in North Kansas City Missouri.
Afterwards, I opened my own flower and gift shop in Urbandale Iowa and sold
that business in 2001 kept creating floral designs for weddings and special
events.
I
consider myself priveledged as I've studied floral design at the Koehler
and Dramm Institute of Floristry with
white house and Rose Parade Designer, Ardith Beverage. Ardith taught me
the awesome techniques that she uses for Presidential Parties throughout the
world and in Washington, D.C. Ardith asked to me to work at a design show
for Koehler and Dramm - obviously I said "YES"!!!
Working
with HGTV and CBS Floral Guru from Canada Neville Mackay was also a highlight
in my floral career. I worked with Neville and several other celebrities to put
together a show for other florists to give them a refreshing creative ideas
with new colors, trends and tricks of the trade! The experiences were
remarkable! I thank Neville for sharing his knowledge and kind comments on my
designs! :)
Through
my experience working with Brides, Event Planners, and Corporations for their
wants and needs, I know how important it is to listen to their dreams and
the vision they have for the special day. It is truly a blessing to be a part
of their wedding day or corporate event to bring the event to life with the
beauty of flowers! I look forward to meeting with you and creating special
memories on your big day or special event - both corporate or personal.
Best
Wishes to you and your Future!
~Amy
