Rachel Trimarco is the Founder & CEO and Bridal Flower Divas. Trimarco planned and designed every detail of her own 300 person, lavish Hampton wedding. After receiving several astronomical quotes from florists, Rachel knew that she could find a way to avoid paying premium prices for the elegant floral décor she envisioned. She found an incredibly talented floral designer with over 25 years of experience to execute her floral scheme and used her business skills to negotiate with distributors. She ended up with couture floral arrangements for a fraction of the quotes she received from florists. After seeing her work and learning how little she paid, numerous friends and acquaintances requested her help in planning their own weddings. This gave her the inspiration for a discounted, designer bridal flower boutique. Trimarco's career has included financial sales, event planning and television production. After gaining experience in the corporate world, Trimarco decided to pursue her true passion, interior and event design. She combined her business acumen, planning and production experience, and flair for design to start Bridal Flower Divas. Rachel Tirmarco received her undergraduate degree from Cornell University.
