For over 15 years, Nicole Follensbee has been working in the hospitality business making memorable experiences for people. Two years into her career, she knew she wanted to focus on events, eventually opening Simply Beeutiful Events. 

“I always knew that my end goal was to have my own business by focusing on events as I love making memorable experiences for people. I truly love making connections with people and seeing their vision come to life with my help,” the website says.

She was recently awarded the Best of Zola 2024 award.

"I was and still am so proud, excited, and honored to have won the Best of Zola 2024 away in my first full year in business.  It means so much to me being a new business owner that my efforts are being recognized by others and that I'm creating memorable events & experiences for my clients by bringing their vision to life," she said.

Simply Beeutiful Events offers full planning services, partial planning services, and day of coordination depending on how much assistance is needed.

“I enjoy the challenge of finding creative ways to keep costs down while still making someone's dream day or event come to life,” the website says.

This month, Follensbee is holding a Valentine’s Day Sale. Anyone who books an event planning package for 2025, 2026, and beyond will receive up to 20% off, a post on the company’s Facebook page advertises.
