“We actually started in our garage, our home garage, and then we started having more inventory, so we had to rent a warehouse,” said Heisy Garcia, co-owner of Celebrations Event & Rental. Having a dedicated space at company’s biggest accomplishments. They can now offer venue space to their clients, which saves those clients the headache of trying to locate a space themselves. Melford Town Center in Bowie, Maryland, has been one of the Celebrations Event & Rental’s flex suite features an office area where they conduct in-person consultations. Garcia said when clients visit, they are now able to set up displays featuring their rental items, including banquet tables and props, and show clients how their décor could look. The building also has a designated, private bridal suite that they can use during their event. “The space has been very helpful to showcase what our business does.” Celebrations Event & Rental is truly a family business. Garcia owns the company with her husband, and they’re
joined by her parents, sister and aunt. Garcia works on the admin side while her husband takes care of the inventory, making sure that all of the rental items are ready each weekend. Garcia’s mom also helps her with food preparation. The holidays, in particular, are a hectic time of the year, but the Garcias love bringing events to life. Working with St. John Properties was instrumental in finding and utilizing the perfect space. Garcia said that she saw the space about a year before they signed a lease, and they were apprehensive to take the leap, especially as a small business. But, after meeting with leasing representative Mike White from St. John Properties, Garcia knew that this was the space for them. “There were just a few changes that needed to be made in order to achieve what we needed,” Garcia explained. “So the space worked out really well.” St. John Properties helped with the entire transition, including permitting, so that Garcia didn’t have to worry about the intricate details that go into relocating as a new business. The in-house
interior design team even helped Garcia with the layout by offering recommendations on the best ways to utilize the space. One of the biggest factors in choosing this particular space came down to how St. John Properties maintained the property. Not every building Garcia toured was as well taken care of. Melford Town Center was clean, offered sufficient parking, and open landscaped areas, and these all factored into their decision. “When I met with [Mike White] he was very helpful, and as soon as I saw the layout that he sent me, I knew that was the space.” –Heisy Garcia, Owner, Celebrations Event & Rental
