I was born and raised in Limassol, Cyprus. I studied General Business in Cyprus and Spain, and earned my Master&#8217;s degree in International Tourism Management and Hosting Businesses.<\/p>\n<p>Then, I decided to focus on <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.qceventplanning.com\/2017\/08\/start-event-planning-business\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">starting an event planning business<\/a>. I am the owner of VITAVENIR. From a very young age, I wanted to have my own business, a business that I would do the things that I love. My passion for decorating and planning in combination with my creativity helped me launch VITAVENIR two years ago, at the age of 25.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Why_did_you_decide_to_become_an_event_planner\"><\/span>Why did you decide to become an event planner?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"672\" height=\"448\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-17352\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.qceventplanning.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/Event-in-post-135x135-2019-09-18T163439.055.jpg\" alt=\"floral design and table event decor by VITAVENIR a graduate of QC's event and wedding planning course\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.qceventplanning.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/Event-in-post-135x135-2019-09-18T163439.055.jpg 672w, https:\/\/www.qceventplanning.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/Event-in-post-135x135-2019-09-18T163439.055-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 672px) 100vw, 672px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Being in love with details and decoration, becoming an event planner was very easy. I am a very organized person, which is a must in the event and wedding planning business. When I was younger, I remembered drawing plans and programs for even the smallest things in my daily routine.<\/p>\n<p>At the beginning stage of my wedding planning career, I was working <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.qceventplanning.com\/2019\/04\/how-get-hired-wedding-planning-assistant-job\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">part-time as an employee of a wedding planning company<\/a>. It was there that I decided that event and wedding planning was the job I wanted to do for the rest of my life. Being an important part of people\u2019s special events and seeing their smiles at the end is the biggest reward.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Having_graduated_from_QCs_Event_and_Wedding_Planning_Course_and_the_Event_Decor_course_do_you_find_your_expertise_in_both_has_afforded_you_many_opportunities\"><\/span>Having graduated from QC\u2019s Event and Wedding Planning Course and the Event Decor course, do you find your expertise in both has afforded you many opportunities?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Attention to detail makes the biggest difference, especially in the event decor industry.

Cyprus is a very warm island with a great combination of mountains and beaches. Every city in the country has its own beauty. In the summer season, thousands of tourists vacation in the country.
