Allow me to introduce myself, a proud native of Concord, North Carolina, and a Charlotte resident. As a loving and proud mother of two wonderful children, my life is always filled with excitement and adventure. With two active kids, our home is constantly buzzing with energy. From Monday to Friday, you'll find me at cheer or basketball practice, and on weekends, we're often on the football field or attending AAU basketball tournaments. Life is never dull, and I wouldn't have it any other way!

When Monday and Friday evenings roll around, my daughter and I have a special tradition—we cozy up in front of the TV and enjoy watching WWE together. It's a fun bonding experience that we both cherish.

I am a graduate of Wingate University, proudly representing the Bulldogs! I obtained my degree in Human Services and Business Management, which has provided me with a solid foundation to pursue my passions. One of my favorite ways to unwind is by snuggling up on my sofa under a warm blanket with a good movie. While I enjoy a good cry during heartfelt movies, I am a fan of all kinds of comedy shows and movies. The sillier, the better! Laughter is truly a balm for the soul, and I love sharing laughter with those around me.

Aside from my love for movies and laughter, I have a great passion for travel. Exploring new places, discovering hidden gems, and immersing myself in different cultures bring me immense joy. As a foodie, I also take delight in finding new restaurants and experiencing diverse culinary delights.

When I'm not busy with my kids or pursuing my hobbies, I have had the incredible opportunity to work with Fabulously Created Events for many years. Being part of such memorable and precious moments in people's lives has been truly invaluable and fulfilling.

With a smile on my face, praise in my heart, and a desire to share laughter and positivity, I am excited to connect with all of you. Let's make the most of every moment, support one another, and create beautiful memories together!

Hi loves! I'm Sylvia, and I was born and raised in the windy city of Chicago, Illinois. I am fueled by a purposeful passion for bringing out the best in people. Currently, I work in the financial industry here in the Queen City, Charlotte. However, my heart and soul reside in the bustling streets of Chicago.

I have a dynamic personality that adds an extra dose of "extrovert" to any gathering. Known for my boldness and enthusiasm, I thrive on connecting with others and creating meaningful relationships.

In addition to my professional pursuits, I am deeply passionate about fitness. Taking care of my physical and mental well-being is an integral part of my daily life. I find joy in bike riding and exploring different brunch venues, savoring the flavors and ambiance of each unique spot.

However, my most cherished role in life is being a wife and bonus mom. The love and bond I share with my partner and our blended family bring immeasurable happiness and fulfillment to my days.

My daily motto is start each day with a prayer and thanksgiving.

Pam

Hey, Party People! I'm Pam, originally from Philadelphia, PA, but I've called North Carolina home for quite some time now. As a child, I was fortunate to have parents who threw the most incredible birthday parties for us, and that ignited my love for celebrating and bringing people together.

After getting married and starting a family, I made the decision to further my education and pursue Hospitality Management. In 2015, I graduated from Central Piedmont Community College, and it has been the best decision I've ever made. The hospitality industry is dynamic and constantly evolving, and I adore being part of it. The ultimate goal is to create unforgettable and special experiences for people, and the smiles, tears, and unique themes fuel my passion.

Outside of the world of events, my husband and I lead a busy life raising our four amazing children. They keep us on our toes, but we are incredibly blessed to have such a beautiful family. In the rare moments of free time that I have, you can find me with a cup of tea, attempting to make it past the first seven minutes of any movie or TV show. It's a little challenge I've set for myself, and I find joy in discovering new stories and entertainment.

C-J

Hello everyone, I'm C-J! Born in Texas as a military brat, I now proudly call North Carolina my home. After high school, I embarked on a journey in the military, which led me to different parts of the country, including Salt Lake City, Utah, and Phoenix, Arizona. Eventually, my path brought me to the vibrant city of Charlotte, which I have come to adore. I've witnessed Charlotte's remarkable growth, making it one of the best cities in the country.

Professionally, I currently work as a Solution Advisor for an Automated Pharmacy Inventory Management Company. My role involves providing valuable expertise to optimize pharmacy inventory processes, enhancing efficiency and accuracy.

My love for event planning blossomed when Fabulously Created Events orchestrated my own wedding in Las Vegas. The planning journey was so fulfilling that I joined their team, where I now have the pleasure of creating beautiful memories for others.

During my free time, I cherish moments spent with my partner and our lovable dog, Bella. Family plays a significant role in my life, and we enjoy spending quality time together. I have several hobbies that bring me joy, including balloon decor, which allows me to express my creativity and bring a touch of whimsy to any occasion. Working in the yard is another passion of mine, where I find solace in tending to plants and creating a serene outdoor space. Cooking is a delightful pastime, where I love experimenting with new recipes and flavors. Additionally, I actively assist my partner at his locally owned dance studio, contributing to the vibrant dance community and supporting aspiring dancers.

Rachel

Hey everyone! I'm Rachel, and I've called Charlotte home for the past 17 years. Originally from Huntington, West Virginia, I moved here after obtaining my Bachelor of Art's Degree with a focus on Healthcare Management from Marshall University (GO HERD!). During my time in Huntington, I also pursued further education at the University of Phoenix and earned my Master's Certification in Healthcare Informatics.

Currently, I work as an Instructional Designer in the Healthcare Industry. In this role, I have the privilege of creating engaging and effective training programs to enhance the skills and knowledge of healthcare professionals.

Outside of my professional life, I am a proud mom of two wonderful girls whom I love dearly. They bring immense joy and fulfillment to my life. When I have free time, you can often find me indulging in some retail therapy, enjoying the poolside, or spending quality time with my friends and family. I believe that laughter is truly the best medicine, and I absolutely love a good laugh. After all, life is better when you're laughing!

Latisha

Hey Y'all! I'm LaTisha, and for the past 24 years, I've been on a whirlwind adventure as a military spouse, moving around to various places both in the United States and internationally. But now, I have finally found my way back to my hometown of Concord, North Carolina. It feels good to be back home!

Being a military family, we have learned to celebrate every moment with enthusiasm and create unforgettable memories. With that comes great planning, and I have become the go-to person for organizing and coordinating events and gatherings for my family. I thoroughly enjoy putting together a great time for everyone to enjoy and cherish.

When I'm not busy planning and hosting events, I absolutely love spending time with my husband, family, and friends. They bring so much joy and fulfillment to my life, and there's nothing better than creating lasting memories with the people I love the most.

As a proud and loving mother of six children, my days are filled with love, laughter, and plenty of chaos. Each of my children brings their own unique personalities and adventures into our lives, and I cherish every moment spent with them.

In my precious spare time, I enjoy indulging in activities that bring me joy. Whether it's engaging in DIY projects, getting creative, or finding a good TV show to binge-watch, I relish in those moments of relaxation and personal fulfillment.

Crystal and her team were the best decision that we made in the entire wedding planning process. Early on, we made the decision to change the ceremony and reception venues and Crystal made that change for us seamlessly. With her full planning package, we were able to email, call, text, etc. with our concerns and she would talk us through our options, and it made the whole wedding planning process much easier and much less stressful.

Crystal went above and beyond our expectations for helping us plan our wedding. She helped transform the concept of my wedding by coming up with unique ideas that made our day stand out, like hiring a New Orleans-style wedding second line, because our honeymoon was going to be in New Orleans.

Crystal and her team were beyond amazing. Throughout the wedding planning process, she calmed our nerves and helped us plan an amazing wedding step by step. The wedding day went absolutely perfectly, as she handled every detail for us, made sure we were taken care of and that everything went smoothly throughout the day. Our guests kept commenting on how amazing her staff was and how wonderfully the whole night was run. She really seemed to care that we were having a great time as well and asked us frequently what she could do to make it even better. I can’t thank Crystal and her team enough for making our special day perfect!

Fabcreatedevents were exactly what we were looking for when we started to plan our wedding. They were super patient with all our questions during the planning process and during the days just prior to our wedding. We honestly couldn’t have asked for a better team of professionals to make our day the most amazing day ever. They handled our family and friends with care and made our wedding day seamless. Not to mention it felt like Crystal had known us for years she was quickly able to identify what we would like avoiding us from attending calls/meetings that didn’t align with our vision. 
 
Crystal made our wedding day the best day of our lives! We highly recommend Fabcreatedevents! Stay tuned for our baby shower in the future 👀 which will be planned by none other than Fabcreatedevents.

I work for an event service company, Curated Events, so I have the opportunity to work with a variety of planners. I can not speak highly enough about Crystal Govan! She makes my job easier! She is extremely timely on her responses, the items she puts together always look amazing, and she answers my questions before I can even ask them. If you are looking for a stress-free process of planning you next event, you do not need to look any further!
