Powerful, Impressive & Dynamic Event Decor
1) How long have you been in business? Provide your background/history.
Events by I.Candy was started in April 2009 by Jill Childs & Alicia Lutz, a mother, daughter team. Jill & Alicia draw from more that 30 years of graphic & interior design, fabrication, printing and photography backgrounds to help redefine event planning. Our background & experience is what makes us so unique. Jill is the owner of a graphics company that prints all of our fabrics, printed materials (invitations, programs, escort cards, table numbers, etc.) and does all of our fabrication, such as, our lampshades, custom routered lettering, floor monogramming and much more.
2) How many weddings do you typically do each year?
Events by I.Candy began in April 2009. In 2010 we will touch over 100 weddings or events.
We hope to double that number in 2011.
3) How many weeks, months, years in advance does someone need to book your services?
Events by I. Candy can work in any time frame. We have many brides that come in a year in advance. We are currently working with brides that still need to finish the decor styling of their weddings in September & October (of this year). We also have brides that come in for a few special pieces that can’t be found anywhere else...we have had brides come in a few days to a few weeks before their event. At Events, it is very easy for us to react quickly because all of our decor is in our own inventory and stored locally.
4) What sets you apart?
What makes us so unique? We are truly passionate about our work! We know how to set the tone for your entire event....no matter your budget. We can coordinate the table dressings to your invitations to your centerpieces to virtually everything! The tiniest details are what makes your event unforgettable. We know details and can coordinate them beautifully into your event.
At Events by I.Candy, we rent everything that a bride will need for the decor styling of her wedding. We have over 220 different kinds of vases...in every imaginable shape, size and color. Our showroom is packed with a bride’s dreams...you can feel their excitement when they enter our showroom. We have large pieces, high quality silk and floral balls, bouquets and much more.
5) What is your price range?
A bride can do a centerpiece from $10 to whatever they want to create. They can rent bouquets for their wedding party from $3 to $7. We can create a wedding on a very limited budget to whatever they can imagine and beyond.
6) Why would a bride/groom want to choose you over others?
I think the question is why would you choose anyone else? We have it all! You can rent it and return it! It really is that simple and easy!
7) What can you offer a budget savvy bride/groom in this economy?
Everything. We have lots of budget-friendly decor. We ask a bride/groom what their budget is. She can create custom, but very affordable centerpieces and decor. We know how to create an event on a very small budget as well as a large budget event.
8) What should couples consider when deciding whether or not to hire your company?
A couple should weigh all the factors...should I rent my decor or buy it? Should we rent silk flowers or spend a higher budget on real flowers? Events by I.Candy has all of our decor on display in our showroom. A bride can come in and we will put together arrangements while she is there. They can participate in the creation of their event. Why would you buy when you can rent?
9) What special amenities do you offer?
