About
The Concept
It was meant to start years ago, but started at the right moment: when people (the world) needed it most.
Crystal Lequang, founder & CEO of Event Tales, has always been driven by a passion for design and a desire to create memorable, meaningful experiences. With a natural talent for blending creative vision with a keen technical understanding, she has dedicated her career to turning moments into lifelong memories.
Since starting her career in event planning and design in 2004, Crystal has poured her heart into crafting unique celebrations that reflect her clients’ stories and milestones. Her unwavering commitment to excellence and love for helping others bring their dreams to life has solidified her reputation as a leader in the field, inspiring trust and admiration from all who have the pleasure of working with her.
After successfully designing and producing over 350 events, there was one common thread among them all. While each event is unique and different in style, personality and scope, every client ultimately wants the same thing; incredible event design.
Then it happened… in the blink of an eye the events and hospitality industry changed overnight. As the industry came to a halt in early 2020 and nearly everything in our world had changed, Crystal’s passion for helping others who couldn’t budget for or have access to a professional designer for their event was stronger than ever.
Her past IT project management experience in the tech world made it easy to envision a solution while her unwavering passion provided the drive to create something wonderful amongst the chaos that was currently going on in the world.
The mission of Event Tales is to make curated event designs accessible to everyone— accommodating every size, location, rules, theme, and budget. The goal is to ensure everyone has access to personal support to elevate their vision within their budget, creating their perfect event.
Here at Event Tales, we provide the right tools to allow you to feel confident bringing your event to life; bringing more fun, touching more lives, creating more lasting memories… one story at a time.
Our Designers
Our team of hand-picked designers have a love for all things events and a passion for connecting and collaborating with clients to bring their event vision to life.
Each designer has years of experience and is able to provide custom design concepts that are aesthetically beautiful, completely custom to you, and functional.
I get inspired walking into old and new places, visualizing it’s full event potential to create amazing concepts for my clients. I am a true design chameleon and enjoy working with any and all design styles, but would say my personal aesthetic is timeless with an edge of new and unexpected. My favorite part of event design is creating event experiences for both my clients and their guests that are so enjoyable and fun that it leaves a lasting impression.
What I enjoy most about event design is bringing beauty as well as functionality to a space. Something I always strive for with my event design is to find a way to uniquely display or incorporate a decor piece that touches the client. My personal design style is very eclectic, and I love combining traditional concepts and modern twists. I love mixing different textures, colors, and shapes and my favorite design element at an event is always the lighting.
I often have a hard time narrowing down my personal aesthetic because I truly love all design styles. If I had to sum it up, I would describe it as California Chic; I love traditional, chic styles coupled with an eclectic, casual feel. My passion for event design is fueled by my clients and what their individual passions are. I love incorporating what makes them happy into the design of their event.
