Without further ado, get ready to learn more about the face behind Flores Events!
Tell us a bit about your professional background. What brought you to the event industry?
I’ve always worked in administrative positions that included project and event management – monitoring timelines, leading teams, designing and hosting events. In my personal life, I love to create themed events and engaging activities to bring people together, so I loved the blending of those interests!
What do you love about your job?
So many things! It’s incredibly exciting to work with a team and bring so many moving parts together for a successful event. Each event and client we work with is unique, so we are always getting to do something different.
What’s the most memorable reaction you’ve experienced from a couple on their wedding day?
The moment when my clients have gotten through the most nerve-wracking part of the day, usually for weddings, it’s the ceremony – There’s so much anticipation built up for that moment, but in the moments after, when a couple is married, or they get to go to their cocktail hour, and I can see that they’ve “settled in” to the day. It’s a different experience with every client, but to be there for them in that moment and to watch them relax and enjoy themselves after all their hard work.
If you could share one wedding planning tip with an engaged couple, what would you tell them?
My one piece of advice would be that “planning should happen around your life.” So often, the experience becomes the primary focus and can feel overwhelming. Schedule a regular “planning date night” where you share responsibilities, talk about the wedding, and make decisions together.
