FAQs
- How did you get started doing this type of work?
Ambitious Alfa Secrets was inspired by my parents, who worked long hours to give me and my brother a better life. Even though we didn’t see them much, they never missed a birthday — those celebrations were full of love, laughter, and magic. I started this business to recreate that feeling for other families — especially those working hard behind the scenes to give their kids unforgettable moments and memories that last forever.
- Describe a recent project you are fond of. How long did it take?
One of our favorite recent projects was a cowgirl-themed 3rd birthday celebration held at a local forest preserve. We helped plan, organize, and design the entire experience—from setup to the final details. The event featured live animals, including a horse and a pony, as well as others - which quickly became the highlight for the kids. Guests were greeted with cowboy and cowgirl hats, colorful bandannas, and inflatable horses they could “adopt” and ride around. We created a cozy photo area with hay bales and themed props, along with an arts and crafts station and a treat table that kept everyone entertained. Each child left with a personalized goodie bag and a printed photo of themselves riding a horse or pony—a keepsake that made the day unforgettable. From concept to completion, the project took about two weeks of planning and preparation, and it remains one of the most joyful, hands-on events we’ve ever designed.
- What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a provider in your area of work?
Take your time finding someone who truly listens to your vision. Don’t just look at photos — pay attention to how they communicate, how organized they are, and how much care they put into the details. The best event designer or planner will make you feel heard, supported, and excited, not stressed. Also, be honest about your budget — a good provider will help you make the most of it without sacrificing style or quality. The right fit isn’t just about price; it’s about trust, communication, and the ability to bring your dream to life in a way that feels personal.
