Florie
Planning parties is in her blood! As far back as anyone can remember, the women of her family have all been remarkable hosts and exceptional cooks. For more than a decade, Florie has proudly carried on that tradition, designing and planning awesome parties
Florie has built a reputation as a creative and visionary event planner who is not afraid to break the mold. She is always on the lookout for new inspiration, which she draws from fashion, the streets of Manhattan, Instagram, and her four amazing kids.
She prides herself on building personal relationships with each of her clients. Florie not only understands how to balance all of the family dynamics that go into throwing a milestone party -- making sure everyone feels comfortable and heard-- but she always seeks to make it a fun and enjoyable process filled with many laughs.
Florie is a 4th generation New Yorker and still lives just a few blocks from her childhood home in Gramercy Park. She also has a beautiful farmhouse in Narrowsburg, New York where she and her husband take their kids to explore the woods and unwind -- it has the added benefit of a barn allowing her to store enormous amounts of event supplies.
Lauren
Lauren loves planning events from start to finish, meticulously bringing together all of the details to create a one-of-a-kind party for her clients. Lauren has a passion for throwing parties that are fun, authentic and full of energy!
Lauren pours over every detail to make sure all the pieces fit together like a puzzle and make her clients’ vision a reality. One of her favorite parts of any event is the moment when the guests have arrived and she takes a brief step back to take it all in, and look at the smiles on everyone's faces.
When she’s not planning events, Lauren loves dancing, yoga, tacos with extra guacamole, and Friday afternoon French fries!
Molly
Molly Silsby has been with FHD since day one at the kitchen table. She is our designer extraordinaire who is responsible for creating custom designs for our clients. From fancy dinner party menus to over the top mitzvah logos, Molly’s designs bring our client’s vision to life in a unique and seamless way.
Molly has a background in both graphic design and product design in the home furnishing space. She always has her eyes open for inspiration to create fresh and unexpected designs for our clients.
Molly comes from the rolling hills of Eastern PA, and loves yummy home-cooked dinners, and pink Depression glass!
