In 2005, Cassandra Cherneski founded Flaire Weddings and Events. A high school English teacher at the time, she loved the creativity and excitement that came from planning weddings for friends and family and decided a side business would be just the thing to fill her weekends and summers. After just a few seasons it became apparent that weddings were her primary focus and in 2011, Cassandra left her teaching job to focus full time on the business.
In 2013, Caroline Fuller opened a planning company based in Jacksonville, Florida, called Simply Grace Events. Cassie and Caroline crossed paths at various educational and industry events and knew they had a similar aesthetic, life outlook and clientele.
Their overlapping giftings mean that Flaire clients are receiving outstanding service, impeccable attention to detail, and thoughtfully curated designs.
The Flaire Story
Both companies became increasingly successful, but with success comes some costs as well. Both women felt a tug to try to balance being amazing planners while also loving their families and children well and opened up about the struggles of running a business while also prioritizing family. What may have just been another vent session turned into a golden opportunity for Cassie and Caroline to join forces. Each brings different strengths to the table, and together they serve the market in a way no other company is doing.
