About Elephancy Co.

Alexandra De Souza

Chief Experience Officer

South Florida event planner Alex De Souza specializes in boutique events at Elephancy Co. Alex obtained her B.S. in Hospitality from FIU and is a certified planner through the Bridal Society. During her time at FIU, she gained experience through leading several events for SOBEWFF and working for renowned exclusive planner, Chris Weinberg. After graduation, Alex and her husband Kenny were working in property management and started their own business, 910 Homes. Alex has worked as a project manager and interior designer for full home renovation for the past few years. She got the opportunity to run her own event company with her sister-in-law.

She can now combine her hospitality education, event experience, and home design experience together to create one of a kind events. She listens to her clients, develops project scope and budget to match their vision, puts together a creative team, and manages the project through post-event evaluation and client satisfaction. She believes that an event should be a direct reflection of the clients’ vision and their expectations for the successful outcome of their event. Alex develops a personal relationship with her clients and through interpretation, turns their loves and lifestyles into a fun, interactive, and memorable guest experience.

In three words: Empathetic, Honest, Organized
