JOMYGOODNESS PALS
   

Hi!  My name is Jomylene {pronounced jo-my-'lin} Flores.  I am the founder of Jomygoodness, a full-service event management boutique in southern California, as well as the creative editor behind its same-named blog.  I suppose you can say I worked a little backwards, in that I started coordinating weddings with no experience whatsoever, got a bunch of weddings under my belt, then decided to work for someone else.  Ha!  After evolving into a position where I took the orders from another planner, I moved on to strictly managing corporate events.  As much as I loved what I was doing, I decided to transition into a 9 to 5 job where I could use my organization and planning skills to pay the bills, which would enable me to spend the "regular" time I needed my then 3-year-old son.  The day job, unfortunately, made it difficult for me to exert my creativity, so before I imploded, I gave birth to my other child, the Jomygoodness blog.

After much encouragement from colleagues, past clients, family, and friends, I decided I would dedicate more of my time to my craft & start offering my services as a planner again.  Afterall, "where passion meets planning" is my motto.  In all honesty, I never imagined I would have as much fun as I do planning events.  As the junior class president at an all-girls' high school in San Diego, I had the responsibility of helping coordinate our Jr-Sr Prom at the famous Hotel Del Coronado.  It looked great on my college application, but it never really resonated with me as my passion, let alone a career.  Blogging, on the other hand, came naturally for me since I have always kept (or tried to keep) a journal and enjoyed taking notes.

As an event coordinator, my number one goal is to provide guidance to my clients, so they are able to have a flawless & well-executed event.  My goal as a blogger is to provide a daily dose of inspiration that truly reflects my own style, which I believe is a little bit of everything - - from modern to vintage, from casual to formal, and from rainbows to black & white!  There's a little bit of Jomygoodness in everyone, and there's a little bit of everyone in Jomygoodness.
