We had the good fortune of connecting with Dex Taylor & Nicholas Mayberry and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Dex Taylor & Nicholas, what is the most important factor behind your success?
We were immediately drawn to this question because of the word “factor” as it’s a part of our IG handle which is @theNDfactor. Nevertheless, narrowing-down to the most important factor behind our success was more challenging simply because our “factor” is a formula that includes a number of ingredients. Additionally, we have a diversity of good opinions … like most couples, right. Where we absolutely align is that the sum total of our NDLE formula is our distinguishing factor. Talent – having diverse fundamental skillsets has equipped us to be able to go between Interior Design to Private Chef/Catering to Event Planning to Wardrobe Style as demand ebbs and flow. Good Customer Service – in our treatment of, level of responsiveness to and exceeding the expectations of our clients. Passion – we love what we do and it shows in our projects and product. Respect – not taking the other for granted and promoting as well as supporting one another’s gifts and talents. Those are our success factors!

Can you open up a bit about your work and career? We’re big fans and we’d love for our community to learn more about your work.
ND Lifestyle and Entertainment Group was born out of the need for an organization that could flawlessly handle and efficiently implement every aspect of lifestyle and entertainment. Our full service concierge inspired model is like none other. From small intimate dinners for two to full scale wedding and events, we are the go to event company for making your vision a reality. NDLE Group’s goal is to relieve our clients of the stress and frustrations associated with planning and executing an event. Through professionalism, extreme attention to detail and a host of unlimited services, our clients have the opportunity to sit back, relax and let go. It is our job to plan, facilitate and execute our clients wants and desires, with as little involvement from the client as possible. Ultimately our commitment to our clients, is to make sure they relax during the process, truly enjoy the event, and create lasting memories, not the drama behind the scenes.

Any places to eat or things to do that you can share with our readers? If they have a friend visiting town, what are some spots they could take them to?
OMG, this is hard to sum up, we’re very social people! We love to visit and show people the High Museum of Art, Atlanta Civil Rights Museum, World of Coca-Cola, The Atlanta University Center of Colleges and Trap Music Museum. A few of our favorite eat and drinks spots that we take guests are Two Urban Licks, Virgil Gullah Kitchen & Bar, Four Season’s Bar Margot, Polaris, Poor Calvin’s, Friend’s, Apt4B, Bartaco and Twisted Soul Cookhouse & Pours. But, because Chef Nicholas is such a great cook, most of our guests just want us to cook for them…lol.

The Shoutout series is all about recognizing that our success and where we are in life is at least somewhat thanks to the efforts, support, mentorship, love and encouragement of others. So is there someone that you want to dedicate your shoutout to?
We want to certainly thank God, the Ultimate Creator, for giving us our talent and uniqueness. Our team members, who are a vital part of our successful execution. We have to thanks our Parents….they are our #1 fans. Most definitely and not least, we thank each and every client that has believe-in us, given us the opportunity to “wow” them & their guests and repeat business.
