For as long as I could remember I have always wanted my own business. As I child I was all about the best lemonade stands…which turned into kool-aid stands and finally a “mini sale” stand. What is a “mini sale” stand you ask? It is a stand where I obviously sold the traditional 3 different options of kool-aid, and then also had a variety of different handmade crafts and trinkets to sell. Everything from fortune tellers to little boxes made of Popsicle sticks. And at the end of the day everything fit perfectly into a little shoe box…that was wrapped in pretty paper of course, and a big sign that read “mini sale”.
As I got older I was very involved in my high school’s business department. . There I met a teacher who would inspire and teach me the skills that you may not necessarily learn from a book. She taught me the art of delegation :) and how to find the answers when you’ve told someone you can help them and don’t necessarily actually know how. I guess she was the start of my great customer service skills :) I look back, and my energy and passion for business came from the different opportunities I was given in high school.
I have always had a love for great design…and a need for a coordinated room. I loved to make things and clean and bake and had a whole “domestic” side of me starting at a very young age. My mom’s wedding is what really pulled all of my different loves together. My passion and obsession eventually turned into wedding and event design. I am in love with beautiful memories being created in the most perfect settings. I want to create that moment that is glued in your mind forever and that makes you smile when you are alone in your own thoughts. There is nothing like waking up the morning of an event or dinner you have planned and knowing that all of your hard work and preparations have come down to this very day. It makes the sleepless nights and long hours completely worth it.
It’s love. I have a pure love for entertaining and events. And Jereme’s love for cooking comes shinning through in each and every plate we put out. We have so much fun together, and I think that our whole concept and personality really is seen when we come into someone’s home to do a dinner. Let us share our love with you. 
Congratulations on your business Andrea! You always were fantastic at designing events and putting everything together. I always envied that about you in school. I can't wait to see some more pictures of the many events I know you will be managing.
