Jennifer chose to create these flip flops because it is something fun, interesting, ever changing and she can make her own hours! "I have always wanted to have my own business and when this idea came to me I just ran with it." They are celebrating their five year anniversary this year!
J*Flops has been featured in several local magazines as well as the Sacramento Bee. J*Flops was also featured on Good Day Sacramento!
Jennifer has a bachelor’s degree in Communications/Public Relations and a certificate in meeting planning. Jennifer loves that her job doesn’t really get boring, and that there are always new creative ideas to explore. "I love working with brides and helping them to add a little something different and special to their big day."
Besides her job, Jennifer loves her family, "They make me smile and fill my heart with love." She has three kids, one was just born on February 12! (Congrats!) She also has a dog named Lily and a cat Noey(short for Noel).
Sparkle is in (when is it not, really!) and simplicity. Colors that seem to be popular are turquoise, brown, black and shades of pink. But that can all change with the seasons.
and Most Unique and Unusual Experiences
Jennifer says her favorite type of bride is one that is creative and willing to think outside the box as far as colors or design – to make the flops something extra special for their bridesmaids. Also, brides that appreciate the work that goes into hand making the flops. "We carefully make each one to perfection and it is nice to work with brides that see that and are thankful for those special touches."
J*Flops has had many special requests, but one that stands out to Jennifer was one bride that wanted to truly create a pair of flops for each of her bridesmaids that said something about their personality. We ended up creating a horse themed pair for a girl that liked horses, a dog themed pair and several other distinct themed pairs including one that was for her friend that loved Miller Light beer – "Those turned out so cute!"
Several celebrities have J*Flops and wear them, hopefully we will see a famous bride walking down the aisle with a pair soon!
J*Flops have affordable prices, so there is a pair to fit anyone’s budget! For styles on the website, prices range from $18 - $50. Custom orders start at about $20 and go up from there depending on what you want.
To save money Jennifer says, "Just think through reasons why you might want something that seems extravagant. Is it because it is something you really want to incorporate or is it a fad or new trend? Make sure it is something you really want."
In regard to flip flops, they make a great, inexpensive gift to bridesmaids, mother of the bride, flower girls etc., that can be worn the day of the wedding and then can become part of each person’s flip flop collection to wear all summer long, so you really get your money’s worth.
With weddings, since they are usually a one day affair, or maybe a weekend long event, ways in which to save money are finding ways to stretch your dollar, make it last longer, be more memorable and really say something about you as a couple – make it personal! That way the money you spend is well worth it.
