“The Five” that made The Grand whole in 2024. Long post but please read.

Vulnerable moment:
I am not going to sit here and act like I had it all together this year at The Grand Event as our household grew with the addition of Tete’s babies (my 3 nieces). There was a lot of adjustment, therapy was necessary for EVERYBODY, and just trying to find balance. I was stressed, depressed, anxious, and overwhelmed all the while trying to lead a team at The Grand who needed me too.

My creativity waned, my time with the team was rare and I found my business on the negative side of some conversations. And though I wanted to fight back, some of them were RIGHT!!! And ya’ll know I don’t like that. AT ALL!

So one day I rolled out of bed, put my feet on the ground with confidence and said… it’s time for Shannel SHANNEL to come back. (Insert Kendrick Lamar lyrics 😜)

And the best part of my “comeback” is that it’s these tiny humans that got me to remember my value. Not as a mom. Not as a Tete. Not as a wife. Not as an entrepreneur. But as MF SHANNEL RENAE!!! 💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽

And EVEN THOUGH my year started very differently than planned, we STILL managed to grow our business about 25% over last year. We STILL managed to add new team members. We STILL managed to do over 400 events. And those babies…1 is going into the gifted program, 3 Honor Rolls students, Star Students, cheer champions, and the smallest one just got promoted to counting flatware bags 😂. Look at God 🙌🏾.

This pic says it all though. We didn’t start this way but we stepping into the New Year READY!

And on this here 8th day of Christmas I’m here to tell you, WE OUT ✌🏽🤗🌲

Don’t get me wrong, the entrepreneur in me won’t ever be still but my Team deserves a rest and reset as we celebrate a tremendous year of growth and strength. So as we take a little break to end the year, catch us on our website and socials. To be honest, I don’t think YA’LL are ready for us in 2025. Its a whole new Grand mindset friends. And everyone is on board 💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽

OOPS I forgot a day, so let me deliver two days in one. Day 5 and 6 goes a little something like this. Nothing like a Grand Glow collab 🥰

“Even Mrs. Claus would trade her sleigh for this festive centerpiece! 🎄✨

“Rich textures, vibrant colors, and a whole lot of love went into this elegant arrangement. The pops of emerald green, deep Merlot hues, and subtle touches of silver came together to create a lush, elegant tablescape—perfect for a holiday dinner party. ✨ Thank you for letting us be a part of this festive celebration! ”

And on this the 9th day (or 4th day) I want to shout out our mini drape queen Avery Renae (just slide over to see how she started 🥰)

One of the amazing things that we’ll be introducing is a dedicated draping and lighting team 👏🏽. The Drape Squad (title still pending) will spend the first of the year in dedicated draping and lighting classes and courses to expand on what we already know to help expand on our expertise and offerings. While they learn and grow, Mrs. Grand aka Shannel will be sources new fabrics, new pieces, and new designs. Look out folks, the Grand just got Grander!!

I don’t care what anyone says, the gold chiavari chair is the ONLY chair that has TRULY withstood the test of time. (Cue scene from and if you don’t know don’t say I didn’t warn you. Homie wanted them gold chiavaris BAD 😂)

Did you know the original chiavari was created in 1807 in Chiavari, Italy by Giuseppe Gaetano Descalzi. Although much more detailed back then, as times moved forward the chair became more modernized and more easily assembled which leads to the chair we see today. 🤗

Its about that time again!
