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

Hi Susan and Hector, what role has risk played in your life or career?
As entrepreneurs taking calculated risks becomes part of your daily life. We have always trusted our intuition. And we continuously work on improving our chances for success by challenging the fear with logic and identifying the knowledge we need to acquire to navigate the future steps. For us, taking risks turned a doubtful thought into an amazing reality and through that chase, we found seemingly rare opportunities that we may have never have found if we had waited.

Alright, so for those in our community who might not be familiar with your business, can you tell us more?
We are very excited about the grand opening of our showroom! {Follow us at @boxwoodeventrentals on Instagram for more details.}

Anything that is worth fighting for deserves time and takes a lot of work and consistency. The journey will teach you the lessons you need to learn. It is not easy but it sure is a lot of fun.

We pride ourselves on offering premium quality vintage and modern rentals, floral design, and styling. Our motto is to Celebrate the Moment, The now! Because life is about the magic contained within the little moments. Those instances we hold dearly and relive in our minds over and over for the rest of our days.

Our mission is to offer event planners, hostesses, DIY brides, photographers, set designers & businesses from all realms thoughtfully curated rentals. Memorable and personalized design services, along with transparent business practices to maximize each client’s experience when planning anything from intimate to large-scale events.

Our keen eye for sourcing, and attention to detail, make Boxwood Event Rentals the go-to vendor for memorable and trend-setting celebrations.

If you had a friend visiting you, what are some of the local spots you’d want to take them around to?
We live in the suburbs and always recommend Ponce City Market to visiting friends. It is the ideal place for great food, shopping, and you can’t beat a walk in the beltline. And search for tiny doors! #tinydoorsatl

And definitely the Atlanta Botanical Garden.
