Biography
With a background in Horticultural studies specifically landscape and floral design Vincent has been a visual designer for over 15 years. While attending college at WKU he was selected from the student garden crew to maintain the grounds at the on campus home of the universities president. After the first season working directly with the president and his wife Vincent was given creative control of the gardens and the ability to rethink the seasonal bedding plants and finishes of the historic home. The first lady of WKU often hosted summer parties on the lawn of the home and one day she said “Vincent do you want to make the centerpieces for the event this weekend”? Terrified and excited he went to the grounds clipping hydrangea, spray roses, tulips, and tons of fresh foliage. This first event sparked a fire that could not be extinguished.
In 2010 Vincent joined a five star hotel company in Naples Florida as an entry level floral designer. Sweeping the shop floor and taking out the trash were his first responsibilities and he quickly worked his way up to one of the lead creative designers. After two years in the floral studio Vincent earned the opportunity to work with clients directly and design all visual elements of the events from start to finish. For the past 10 years while working in the luxury market of South West Florida he has partnered with a diverse client base in a wide array of venues to create incredible and dynamic events. Building relationships and customer interaction is his passion and creative design is what he shares with each client and guest in attendance.
