EVENT PLANNING
Although Design Behind The Details, or DBTD, has only been around
since 2004, I have been coordinating, planning and decorating events
since I was a youngster. Really! When I would spend the weekends
with my grandmother, often my sisters and I would accompany her to a
church in downtown Tulsa where she would set up the reception hall.
I can still hear her telling us to "make sure that table skirt lays flat" and
"the dinner fork goes there". Grandmother always made sure
everything was in its place. In addition to setup, grandmother was also
responsible for food preparation. She was an amazing cook. Looking
back, it is clear to me that she was a "party planner" well before the
term became so popular.
It wasn't until recent years that I realized the training my grandmother
was inadvertently providing me as a child, would prove extremely
useful in my adulthood when planning, designing and decorating
events for friends and family.
PERSONALIZED INVITATIONS
As I began to plan events, I realized that many of my clients wanted
invitations that matched their occasion, that represented them more or
that were just more "in style" than your standard, boxed invitations and
announcements. What started as simple invitations to birthday parties,
quickly blossomed into elegant invitations for casual and formal
weddings, retirement parties, bridal and baby showers and graduation
announcements.
PHOTOGRAPHY
Where does photography fit in with all this? Well, I wish I could say that
I've always been a photographer at heart, but in reality this is a new
passion of mine that developed only very recently. A very good friend
of mine is an absolutely fabulous photographer who is now working on
the beautiful emerald coast beaches of Florida. I must credit her with
peaking my interest in this wonderful art form and I have fallen in love
capturing the intimacy of couples, the personalities of children and
their families, the pride in graduates!
WHO AM I?
As the designer, planner, photographer and creative director I am the
sole guiding force behind DBTD. I am Angela Jones. I have been in the
Dallas/Ft Worth area for nearly 20 years. My detail-oriented mind is what
allows me to provide you, my future customer, with a fabulous event,
beautiful portraits or personalized invitations that truly represent you!
