We had the good fortune of connecting with Carmyn Boone and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Carmyn, what was your thought process behind starting your own business?
Like most entrepreneurs I was scared. I honestly didn’t set out with the intentions of starting an Event Planning and Design company. However, it was for the love of flowers and design that I gained early on as a child. As a little girl I would assist with setting the table for my mom as she changed our formal dinning room table to match every holiday/season. It was something about the beautiful florals and intimate setting that stuck with me. So after having my first born I started doing events for friends and family. After a few inquiries and the influence of my late mother I launched EW Events.

Can you give our readers an introduction to your business? Maybe you can share a bit about what you do and what sets you apart from others?
EW Events is an Event Planning and Design company based out of Atlanta, Ga that focuses on luxury styled events. We specialize in weddings, adult birthday parties, and bridal showers.What sets us apart from everyone else is that we pay attention to details. Details matter in Event Planning and Design. Our focus is to deliver something new and exciting with each event we own. Our clients see how much we pay attention to their needs and wants which speaks through the work. Although, this journey has not been easy we’re determined to be successful. Since the startup,I have faced many challenges while growing in this industry such as pricing for profit, marketing and finding the right client’s. What I want the world to know about me is that I truly love seeing others happy. And that love translates to perfect celebrations that create lasting memories.

Shoutout is all about shouting out others who you feel deserve additional recognition and exposure. Who would you like to shoutout?
I definitely owe my success to my late mother who influenced me early on to design and to love florals. When I started my business she was there every step of the way. It was times I wanted to throw in the towel but she was right there to throw it right back and push me to keep going. Also, I must give credit to a few entrepreneurs that I have had the honor to work with that have inspired me in this industry. My first design class was with Tori Williams in which she pushed me out of my comfort zone. Just recently I have completed two master courses with Lance Deveruex that took my design skills and the love of flowers to a new level. His creativity is unparalleled in this industry.
