Milestones
2015
Nani’s Event Management is Born
Our journey begins in 2015 with Nani’s Event Management, named after our first-born daughter. After designing and hosting her gender reveal baby shower brunch, we received so many kind comments that we decided to turn our love for creating special moments into a business.

A New Chapter
