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

Hi Nancy, maybe we can start at the very start – the idea – how did you come up with the idea for your business?
We’ll pretty much I’ve always been into arts and crafts and enjoyed decorating my daughters birthday parties. In 2019 was when balloon decorations became more of a must have at parties and I immediately fell in love with the whole look of the balloon decorations that I started watching videos to learn how to create balloon garlands. What started as an idea to decorate for my daughters birthday parties slowly became more of passion.

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.
I am a balloon stylist in the San Fernando Valley and servicing our surrounding areas. We create luxurious balloon decorations for any event.. My husband and I are the ones who create our custom organic balloon installs that makes for great pictures for everlasting memories. Not only do we do balloons but we also have a variety of rentals available to add with your balloon installations. I believe what makes our work stand out is that we love adding 3d elements on our decorations that go with the theme of the event for example, custom decals, fairy lights, plants, and the creativity is endless. What I am most proud of will definitely be letting go of fear and letting faith take the lead. I would of never have imagined doing what I love with my husband by my side and our two daughters who are our biggest fans cheering us on as we inflate balloons to prep for our events.

Shoutout is all about shouting out others who you feel deserve additional recognition and exposure. Who would you like to shoutout?
First of all I would love to thank my family for always pushing me to start my own business, especially my husband who has been my biggest supporter and has been with me to every install since day one and was willing to learn and grow with me. Most importantly I would love to dedicate this shoutout to Jocelyn at Cairos Custom Events who has been such a blessing in our success. Jocelyn gave our small business a chance back when it all started and since then she has trusted us in executing her vision and has helped us grow tremendously.
