💐 A Message from Zoie & Christy 💐
From Zoie:
To all of my wonderful customers, thank you for allowing Flowers by Zoie to be part of so many special moments in your lives over the years. Whether it was celebrating a wedding, welcoming a new baby, honoring a loved one, or simply brightening someone's day, it has truly been a privilege to serve this community. The friendships I've made along the way have meant more to me than you'll ever know.
As many of you know, there comes a time in life when it's time to embrace a new chapter. After much thought, I've decided it's time for me to enjoy retirement.
As I considered the future of Flowers by Zoie, one question mattered more than any other: Who would continue to care for my customers with the same heart and dedication that have always been at the center of this business?
I'm so happy to share that I found that person in Christy Oeth, owner of Christy's Cottage.
For the past several years, Christy has been serving the Richmond and Mechanicsville community through Christy's Cottage, creating everyday flowers, sympathy tributes, weddings, and special event florals. I've come to know her commitment to quality, creativity, and exceptional customer service, and I couldn't be more pleased to entrust Flowers by Zoie to her.
From Christy:
It is truly an honor to continue the Flowers by Zoie legacy. Going forward, you'll begin seeing our new branding as Flowers by Zoie operated by Christy's Cottage. While you'll notice some exciting changes, my commitment is to preserve the personal service, beautiful designs, and caring relationships that have made Flowers by Zoie so special.
Although Zoie is retiring, this isn't goodbye. You'll still see her from time to time, as she'll occasionally work alongside me and continue sharing her creativity and experience.
As we complete this transition, you'll also notice a few updates to our website. Our Everyday online ordering will now be available through MechanicsvilleFlowers.com, making it easy to order flowers online while continuing to enjoy the same personal service. And if you're looking for something custom or one-of-a-kind, I'd be delighted to create a unique design just for you.
Zoie, thank you for the trust you've placed in me and for the incredible foundation you've built. And to all of the wonderful Flowers by Zoie customers, thank you for welcoming me. I look forward to serving you and this community for many years to come.
Here's to new beginnings, lasting friendships, and many more beautiful flowers. 🌸
With gratitude,
Christy
