MEET THE TEAM
If perfection lives in the details, then flowers are nature's simply flawless detail.
For the past 20 years I've been in Retail & management. Discovered my passion for photography 10 years ago and have been building my photography business ever since. I have truly found my calling in this business, where I can share my creativity with others. Combining flowers and photography is like a dream come true for me and I'm loving every minute. I am a mom of two sweet boys and am lucky to have married my best friend who is also my biggest fan and supporter. I love to laugh, sing, and enjoy life to the fullest!!
Justin Chartrand (my husband) Store Manager/Certified Florist/Silk Master
Justin studied for and started his career as a Heavy Duty Mechanic. After a few years in this trade, he was offered a job as a long hole driller in a mine, so he said yes. He continued in this field for the next decade. Blooming Bouquet brought out a side of him he never knew he had as a florist/store manager. He really found his niche in the silk/artificial flowers and creates amazing designs, which is how he got his name as the Silk Master. So, he is now on this journey with me, as we run our business together. He is the proud father of our 2 boys and still enjoys mechanics, hunting, his 3 dogs and being a jack of all trades. I am so proud of him and couldn't ask for a better partner.
Angel Daigle (my mom) Florist Apprentice
My mama is naturally crafty and has one of the best green thumbs around. She started off as a hairdresser and then spent the next decade raising her 3 baby girls. A business lady herself, along with her husband Lou, created hand carved candles for 15 years, which were sold across Ontario. This Family business was called Norwax Candles. She loves painting, gardening, singing, and playing guitar. This is one craft lady who I love very much and I'm so happy she is part of my team!!
Nicole Desrosiers is our full time, Senior Florist
Nicole studied interior design and went on to open her own business with her mother called, Studio Decor. Here she ran a craft store which taught craft lessons, offered silk flowers and arrangements, as well as framing. Nicole has been working in silk and fresh flowers since 1992. For the past 7 years she has been working and creating amazing floral arrangements for Blooming Bouquet. She raised a hard-working son and has a loving husband at home. She loves crafting, baking, and spending time with her 2 Cockatiel birds. I learn from her every day and love her creativity!!

All while raising her family of 5 and juggling her husband’s mining career. She is very physically active and loves her kayak, skiing, curling & bowling.
