Antionette’s vision has grown from humble beginnings into a thriving family business encompassing Designs by TTOC Floral, an everyday flower shop and CM Production, an event design and planning company. Her dedication and creativity continue to inspire and drive both companies forward.
1995-2001
Early Beginnings and Expansion
Antionette started selling silk flowers at flea markets and opened the first storefront, Toni’s Touch of Class Florist. Rapid growth led to several relocations, including the acquisition of White’s Florist and Jonesboro Florist.
2008-2012
Pause and Rebirth
Due to the recession, Antionette closed her business to focus on family and freelanced for other flower shops. In 2012, she relaunched as Designs by TTOC Floral, specializing in weddings and events.
2017-2019
Certification and Expansion
Certified with the American Institute of Floral Designers (AIFD) and expanded services through 1800-Flowers. Acquired CM Production ATL, growing inventory for large-scale event design.
2020-2022
