Founded by Angela Gossard in 2017, Endearing Events quickly became the leading wedding planning studio in Youngstown, Ohio. Over nearly a decade of designing unforgettable weddings and events, Angela's passion naturally evolved toward the artistic side of weddings - florals, design, and creating stunning spaces that leave a lasting impression.  

In 2025, Angela met Marianthi Pantelakis, an accomplished floral designer with years of experience creating beautiful weddings who was ready to pursue her own creative vision. What began as a friendship quickly became a partnership, and in July 2026, they launched Endearing Events by A&M, a luxury wedding and floral event design studio built on a shared passion for timeless, elevated events and celebrations. 

Today, Endearing Events by A&M is an all-in-one design house that specializes in luxury wedding florals, event design, custom installations, draping, lighting, and production. From flowers, paper goods, and linens, to chandeliers, ceiling treatments, and every thoughtful detail in between, our team is dedicated to bringing each couple's vision to life with creativity, professionalism, and exceptional attention to detail.
