After 3 years of college and in-shop training including washing flower buckets and sweeping the floor (it’s not all about sweet scented flowers you know!) I then began working as a fully qualified florist in various shops throughout Edinburgh, gaining more experience than ever and finding my individual style and confidence with flowers and the business.
I opened my own shop in Currie in 1996 and this is where Vickys Flowers began! I created a busy little shop delivering flowers for all occasions locally and internationally with a great team of florists and counter staff and fantastic loyal customers. Throughout this time wedding flowers had grown to be where my heart was and my most creative side could flourish.
