This week on Event: Crushed, we’re pulling back the curtain on what it really looks like to run a wedding business while raising a family. I’m joined by Oralia Aguirre, owner of Dream Decorations in Northern California. Oralia started her event décor business at just 19 and has grown it into a thriving full-time career — all while raising two daughters and creating a life they love.
In this honest and refreshing conversation, we talk about:
How Oralia built her business before becoming a mom
The evolving seasons of parenting and entrepreneurship
Battling mom guilt and embracing quality time
Productivity tips for busy parents in the wedding industry
Delegation at home and in business (and why it matters!)
If you’re a wedding pro balancing parenthood, business, and everything in between — this episode will remind you that you’re not alone, and that you can thrive in both roles.
