I had the pleasure of working with Laura from Gathered Events, LLC in March. This 60th birthday party in the trendy College Park area of Orlando was styled in a very earthy and natural tones and decor, from burlap to lush greens.
After seeing her hard at work and then having the opportunity to capture the beautiful details she designed and made come to life I had to ask, “What led you to designing events?”
Laura: I have always been a crafter. Since I can remember, I was the little girl who would rather play with beads and glitter glue than watch TV. Even when it wasn’t cool, I was crafting. Making accessories, embellishing my bedroom furniture, mixing my own nail polish. I started my button collection at the age of 6 with a special pair made of glittery clear plastic. My 6-yr-old eyes almost exploded when I found them. I quickly added the prettiest flowery buttons I could find… and a crafting collector was born. Since then, I’ve added to my buttons with a whole room-sized hoard of fabrics, yarns, tools, machines, & all kinds of antique-shop pretties.
Gathered Events combines all of my loves into one creative studio filled with style, design, and plenty of handmade lovelies. We create one-of-a-kind experiences for our clients, giving them parties that are more beautiful than they could ever dream of!
I hope you enjoy the beautiful event set-up. I am sure you will be seeing more amazing things from Gathered Events in the near future!
