We had the good fortune of connecting with Jessica Hervis and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Jessica, can you walk us through the thought-process of starting your business?
The thought process behind starting my own business, Daisy Bloom Events, was driven by my passion for creativity and design. I have always loved working with my hands and creating new things, and balloon art gave me the perfect opportunity to do just that. The joy and excitement that balloon designs bring to any event or celebration is truly magical.

I noticed a niche in the market for custom balloon decor in my area and believed I had the skills and vision to fill that need. Even though the market is growing in Colorado, I believe every company has its own unique style and twist, and I wanted to bring my own to the table.

Also, I wanted the freedom and flexibility of being my own boss and running a business on my own terms. I felt confident in my abilities and saw a fantastic opportunity to turn my passion into a successful business venture. I’m a firm believer that it’s never too late to chase your dreams, and Daisy Bloom Events is my way of bringing creativity and joy into the world.

Can you open up a bit about your work and career? We’re big fans and we’d love for our community to learn more about your work.
At Daisy Bloom Events, we pride ourselves on our ability to transform any event into a vibrant celebration with unique, customized designs that truly reflect our clients’ personalities and themes. We’re excited to foster strong connections with our clients, showing our deep passion for the business and continuing to create beautiful designs for their celebrations.

My professional journey has been far from linear. Initially pursuing a career in criminal justice, I realized it wasn’t my true calling after experiencing various office roles. It was during this time that I discovered my passion for hands-on creativity and the joy of crafting tangible experiences through balloon art. Transitioning into the balloon industry taught me many lessons about navigating a competitive market and manage the ins and outs of running a business.

I learned to stay true to myself, remain resilient when facing challenges and continuously learn and adapt! I hope these lessons not only strengthens my business but also contribute to my personal growth as a business owner.

What sets Daisy Bloom Events apart is that we’re more than just balloon decorators; we’re storytellers who bring clients vision to life. Our brand is founded on passion, dedication, and commitment!

If you had a friend visiting you, what are some of the local spots you’d want to take them around to?
Wow, I don’t even know where to start! Colorado is absolutely stunning and offers so much to explore! But we’d kick off our adventure in Golden with drinks and a relaxed lunch at Golden Mill, the perfect spot for laid-back vibes. Afterward, we’d wander through the cute boutiques and shops, then take a stroll along the river.

The next day, we’d head to Boulder for a hike at the iconic Flatirons, surrounded by breathtaking views. We’d grab lunch at Avanti F&B’s rooftop, always amazing food and views!

Next up, a day trip to Colorado Springs to visit the rock formations of Garden of the Gods. We’d also swing by Cheyenne Mountain Zoo to feed the giraffes and enjoy the mountain views.

Another amazing day trip, we would take them to Rocky Mountain National Park. We would start by exploring the town and then head to the park for either a hike or a picnic surrounded by nature. Before heading out, we would stop by the Stanley Hotel for a tour! So iconic!

As our journey winds down, we’d wrap up with an evening back in Denver. Dinner at one of our favorite spots in the city, Osteria Marco in Larimer Street! so so good! Then, followed by drinks or dessert to end the night!

Who else deserves some credit and recognition?
Absolutely, I owe a lot of credit and recognition to my fiancé, Michael, my parents, Cira & Fernando and close friends. A huge shoutout to my good friend, Brenna (an amazing photographer who captured my branding photoshoot). From the very beginning, they have been my biggest supporters and cheerleaders. Their encouragement and belief in my vision gave me the confidence to take the leap and start Daisy Bloom Events. I am my own worst critic and worrier, and their push meant the world to me!

They are there every step of the way—helping me brainstorm ideas, offering honest feedback, and even lending a hand with the physical work of setting up and creating balloon designs. Their support and advice have been crucial in turning this dream into a reality.

So, to my incredible fiancé, Michael, my amazing parents, and everyone else who’s been here though this journey, thank you for your endless encouragement, love, and for always believing in me. Daisy Bloom Events wouldn’t be where it is today without you by my side.
