Q & A
I had the pleasure of working for Christy (Owner of Bubbles & Bows!) for a short but very sweet time. She is so passionate about her craft and always looking for new ways to up her game. I hope you enjoy getting to know her.
1. How did you get your start in the hospitality business?
I had worked in corporate America my entire career and for some of the most amazing companies!
The experiences I gained through the positions that I held have set me up for success in owning my own business. I was looking for my "next" career move and never imagined it would land me where I am today. My daughter asked me to do a birthday party for her twins, I started researching on Pinterest and Instagram and was amazed by what was out there in the balloon industry. I fell in love immediately with this business and have never looked back.
2. Where did the name Bubbles & Bows come from?
The word Bubbles is from the name of the balloon that we created our Signature Bubble after. And the Bows is just because I LOVE bows & EVERYTHING should have a bow on it!
3. Favorite event you’ve done balloons for?
This is a hard question because every order or event that we do is customized and tailor-made for the client. Whether the job is big, small or in between we take great pride in the work we deliver. Details are a critical piece of our business which I believe takes the ordinary to the extraordinary!
4. What is a goal of yours by the end of 2024?
The mission statement of my company is "Bringing JOY on Purpose". In the next few weeks one of my top priorities is to bring our mission statement to life for our community. People SMILE when they get balloons! My goal is to make as many people SMILE as we can by surprising them with balloons that they did not order and are not expecting xoxo!\
5. If you could go back, what advice would you give yourself at the beginning of your business journey?
Saying "no' and being okay with it! I have learned that I cannot say yes to everyone and that's okay. Being a small business owner is so rewarding but there also are so many balls to juggle. It's okay to drop one of the balls here and there as long as you get back up, learn from what happened, and move forward!In
