MEET OUR FOUNDER:
Maggie Rodriguez has more than 20 years of experience in the wedding and event planning industry. As the Founder and CEO of Inspired Events, Rodriguez oversees hundreds of events per year and a support staff that includes chefs, planners, wait staff, designers, and florists. Rodriguez began her career in 1995 when she began planning events for local politicians, health services organizations, and other local nonprofit corporations. She expanded into the wedding industry in 2005, when she opened the doors of her home to couples looking for an intimate place for a wedding. As a venue owner, she witnessed couples dealing with dozens of caterers, florists, and other wedding professionals, and realized many couples were spending a small fortune on their wedding, only to be disappointed with the quality of the services they were receiving from their vendors. Rodriguez decided to expand her business to catering and event planning with the philosophy of “affordable luxury.“ She built an award-winning venue, catering & planning firm and in 2010, she sold her interests in the business. In 2012, she handpicked her team and brought together like-minded professionals to give clients a seamless wedding planning experience, and Inspired Events was born.
Rodriguez is also the developer and creator of The Wedding Master Class by Inspired Events. It is an online platform designed to break down the wedding planning process, for couples with budgets below $40,000. The platform includes subscriptions and services to make the planning journey stress-free

She is on the cutting edge of wedding planning, most recently recognized for her achievements as a nominee for WeddingWire’s Wedding Awards in the professional achievement category. This award recognizes an individual who has dedicated her/his professional life to creating superior events for her/his couple while going above and beyond in delivering customer service. They have distinguished themselves as a leader within the industry. Rodriguez is renowned for her expertise, philanthropy, and enthusiasm and is often sought out by local and national media for her knowledge and expertise in the event planning and wedding industry.

ABOUT ESTER
My love of cake started at a very early age. My Mom used to make my brother and me wonderfully fun and creative birthday cakes. As soon as I was old enough I was cooking by her side, learning all I could from her. All of a sudden at the age of 15 I was doing cakes for all my family and friends. I graduated from Florida International University of Business School in 2003, and I have been working in the cake business for more than 20 years, beign a very strong leader in the industry. In 2013 my dream come true, I become half owner of Sweet Art by Lucila together with Lucila Jimenez and her partners, that was my last input, learning from such as wonderful woman, how to keep a customer happy, “always giving to them, good quality product and good service.”
