Who we are

Hi, I’m Rachel Blaies,

I’ve always had a deep passion for nature, art, and design. Growing up in a big family, nature became my peaceful escape from the constant chaos. My parents are from Vietnam, and our garden was always full of vibrant vegetables and herbs from their homeland. I remember clipping stems from the garden and placing them in glasses around the house — it was my first introduction to the joy of arranging flowers.

Fast forward to today, and I’ve spent the last 20 years dedicated to the floral design industry. I’ve done it all — from scrubbing buckets in a retail shop at the start of my career to bringing large-scale wedding visions to life, turning sketches into reality. Every step has shaped who I am as a designer.

Create Floral Design has always been a little seed in my heart, and I’m thrilled to finally plant roots and watch it grow. After years in the whirlwind of weddings and events — exciting, fulfilling, and wonderfully intense — I found myself missing the energy of a flower shop. There’s something truly special about creating a bouquet for someone buying flowers for the first time, or simply brightening someone’s day with a few stems.

Thank you for being here. I can’t wait to meet you.

Warmly,
Rachel Blaies
