The BoHo is her style and she’s ready to share.Coming back to Alabama from California Taegan brought her marketing background and launched her business. She found her market by putting the concept out there and the parties range from kids to senior adults. The coolest aspect about the whole idea is that she’s not stuck in one group or one style. She drives the bus some, but has the help of family to get her there. Her drive and mission statement is to be able to have an event for anyone so they can feel special and celebrated and have an event that is tailored to them.We talk about what it’s like to spend money and how to be organized.
