You're listening to the Bride Tiller podcast, helping Bride Chillas and Groom Chilers plan their wedding, minus the bullshit.

One podcast at a time.

Well, good morning, good evening, good afternoon.

Fellow Bride Chilers and Groom Chilers, Alicia here.

I am the host and founder of bridechiller.

And today, I am delighted to be speaking with the lovely Elita Collins, who is coming on the show to talk all about the mechanics behind creating your wedding mood board.

I think that Pinterest and all this sort of other

Instagram now is huge, all these other devices can sometimes overwhelm couples, particularly

in the early stages of wedding planning when you've got all the ideas coming at you.

So it's so great to have you on the show, Alita, and welcome you to the Bridechiller podcast.

And I'm really excited to learn about what you do and how we can help bridechillas and groomchillas get control of all the inspiration, gather it together.

So they don't just melt with all of the different photographs and images and videos and all the extra stuff that we can collect along the

way. Welcome to the show. Well, thank you so much for having me. Thank you so much for having me.

This is going to be a lot of fun. I know it. Now, your business is called flourishing art. I love it.

You deal a lot in the world of flowers, forestry and design.

Tell me a little bit about how you got into this business

and I love all the creative stuff.

I mean, I've been reading your bio

and I connected a lot with what you've done in your career.

So tell us about that.

So I started for a summer job when I was 12, wanted some spending cash in my pocket.

And owned a flower shop and started working in a flower shop. She started putting me in competitions.
