Honouring a tennis legend



Bloomex was honoured to be a part of Daniel Nestor’s retirement ceremony prior to Rogers Cup, which took place August 5-12, 2018. The star-studded gala took place at Roy Thomson Hall as the tennis world watched one of its best be inducted into the Canadian Tennis Hall of Fame.



Our talented florists created elegant and trendy centrepieces of succulents and cacti to accent the sophisticated decor. They were simple, streamlined and let the guest of honour shine!

Nestor is one of Canada’s most decorated tennis players winning 12 grand-slams, an Olympic gold medal, 95 titles and was No.1 in doubles for 108 weeks. He also has an appointment to the Order of Canada and a star on Canada’s Walk of Fame. No wonder the CBC considers him the ‘Wayne Gretzky of tennis’





Nestor will play his final match at Davis Cup by BNP Paribas in September when the Netherlands come to Toronto. He will continue to work with Tennis Canada next year and influence the next generation of tennis greats.
