The Next Level welcomes Kiana Underwood! Kiana is the founder of Tulipina, an internationally renowned floral design studio that specializes in creating incredible experiences for luxury weddings and events. She is the author of the book, Color Me Floral, which covers the secrets of designing showstopping monochromatic arrangements for each season. Her work can be seen in numerous publications and she has sold out workshops all over the world.
Rachel is a wonderful planner and designer from The Lake Como Wedding Planner based in Como, Italy. She not only works with clients directly but also has the pleasure of, as she says, morphing into the local team for many foreign companies such as planners in the states like Lisa Vorce on Chrissy Tegan and John Legend’s wedding and many others.
Kiana and Rachel share many of the same views about making quick decisions before you can talk yourself out of them, having a clean slate when working with a client so that the design is unique, and the need to see the client's reactions to colors and places. Contrasting multi-day events so that each day is different and creating an experience from the moment you meet the prospective client.
Andy and Kiana dive into a few of the noteworthy points of his interview with Rachel. Both Rachel and Kiana are strong women who have carved out a place in the event industry to excel in their respective careers. Listen in and discover what it takes to bring your visions to life and how to have the best people around you to make it happen. You won't want to miss this conversation if you're going to take your business to the next level.
