FOUNDER OF HOUSE OF GIVONNE
Before I knew there was such a thing as an event planner, I was already creating little worlds. As a girl, I would gather my dolls, arrange a setting, and imagine the moments that might unfold there. I loved making it beautiful, but even then, I was drawn to something deeper: the feeling of being part of a moment worth remembering.
I was born in Huntsville, Alabama, and have spent most of my life in the Huntsville and Madison area. I went to school here, and I grew up surrounded by a large, caring family. We came together often, to celebrate, to share stories, and simply to enjoy being with one another. Those gatherings showed me that the most meaningful occasions are not measured only by how a room looks. They live on in the laughter, the closeness, and the way people feel when they are truly welcomed.
My mother has always been one of my greatest inspirations. She is stylish and creative, with a gift for making things feel special. As a child, I watched and admired her; as an adult, I still find myself aspiring to her grace and imagination. Her influence helped shape my belief that beauty feels most powerful when it comes from love and intention.
I built a 22-year career at Lockheed Martin as a software quality engineer. That work taught me to pay attention, think ahead, and understand how even the smallest detail can affect the whole experience. Yet the creative part of me never went away. Throughout those years, I continued to love bringing people together and imagining how an occasion could feel personal and extraordinary. The dream was always there, and the love and encouragement of my family helped me find the confidence to pursue it.
My wonderful husband has been my best friend, my motivator, and a constant source of love and support through the years. His belief in me has given me the freedom to explore my creativity and make room for what I love. I am deeply grateful for the life we share and for the way he stands beside me, encouraging me to turn a lifelong passion into something of my own.
My daughter is at the heart of why I chose to follow this dream. Watching her grow and pursue her own goals has inspired me to do the same. Now that she is grown, I am embracing this new chapter and giving my lifelong passion a home through House of Givonne. I founded this company to help others experience the connection and joy that my family has given me. Every client brings a different story, and I care deeply about listening to it before imagining what their celebration could become. The flowers, the setting, and the flow of the day should reflect the people at its heart.
The moment I am always reaching for is when you walk in, pause, and recognize yourself in what has been created. Then you can let go of the details, be present with the people you love, and make memories of your own. That is why I do this. It is more than designing a beautiful event; it is transforming moments into lasting memories.
