Hi, this is me, Maria the Founder and Creative Design Director at JPH. Here’s a little back history for those of you who don’t know me yet…. I’m a LEO, who knows what she wants and what she likes! So in 2007 when I had the idea of starting a prop house I just went for it. I didn’t overanalyze, didn’t even consider failure at the time. I just went with the idea of “ Build it and they will come!” Maybe not the best business strategy at the time but just like that JPH was launched in 2007. I didn’t do this alone we started as a couple ( yes there really was a Joe )We had big dreams and tons of drive. However life as a working married couple wasn’t so easy and perfect as we had hoped. Life threw us some doozy lemons… but happy to report that those lemons haven’t made me bitter…they’ve made me better! 💛 Running an event business as a solo female entrepreneur has had it challenges but when passion overpowers fear not only can you succeed you thrive! To celebrate 19 incredible years in the event industry I will be showcasing some noteworthy events throughout the years. From design creatives, small gatherings, luxury weddings, brand activations and unforgettable corporate events. One thing is for certain the designs are timeless! Hope you enjoy the throwbacks as much as we do. Let the good times roll!
