Our first Pretty in Pink

Our first Pretty in Pink event in September 2022 was where it all began! 💕 With the incredible co-hosts Honey Salon and Petit Social Studio by our side, we launched our very first shoppable networking event supporting women-owned businesses. What made this event so special was that every aspect—from decor to services—was donated by talented women-owned businesses. It was truly a community-driven effort, and the perfect start to what has now become an amazing tradition of empowerment and collaboration!

I’d also like to express my heartfelt gratitude to a fellow business owner who provided stunning photos for our website and the Pretty in Pink event. Allow me to introduce you to Alli McGrath, the talented owner of Alli McGrath Photography (@allimcgrathphoto). She went above and beyond in capturing the essence of Delaware Female Creatives, and we highly recommend her services to anyone in need of exceptional photography.

Additionally, I would like to express my appreciation to Noelle, the owner of Catapult & Co by Femina(@catapultandco), for her invaluable contributions to our event and website. Noelle graciously filmed the event, and her dedication and support have truly embodied what it means to be a part of Delaware Female Creatives. We are so grateful to have Noelle as a member of our creative and entrepreneurial community.

Thank you again to everyone who made this event a success!

Pretty in Pink - Network and Shop with your Galentine

Our second Pretty in Pink event in 2024 was truly extraordinary! We were thrilled to have the amazing Wildchild Floral Bar @wildchild_floralbar as our co-host, and once again, the event was held at our wonderful member’s space, Petit Social Studio. This time, the event had a Galentine's theme, encouraging everyone to bring their best friend along for a day of fun and shopping from women-owned businesses.

We were fortunate to have the event beautifully captured by Ashlee Emerson Photography @ashleeemersonphotography, and our talented videographer Noelle, owner of Catapult & Co by Femina (@catapultandco), was there to document all the special moments.

It was a day filled with love, friendship, and support for our vibrant community of female entrepreneurs!

Pretty in Pink - In Bloom: Spring Market and Networking for Women-Owned Business Event 2025

On Saturday, April 26, 2025, Pretty in Pink: In Bloom — our first-ever Spring Market and Networking Event — brought the community together for an unforgettable day celebrating women-owned businesses, connection, and empowerment.

Hosted by Delaware Female Creatives and co-hosted by Katelyn Papanicolas, Realtor - Team First State Properties, the event welcomed over 165 guests to St. Anne’s Club in Middletown, Delaware. Guests enjoyed shopping from 40+ women-owned businesses, networking, and participating in exciting raffles with prizes donated by over 30 incredible small businesses.

Thanks to the generous support of our sponsors, vendors, donors, and guests, Pretty in Pink became more than just a market — it became a true celebration of dreams, hard work, and community spirit. Our sponsors, including Refresh Aesthetics, Settlement Works, Bright Finish LLC, Thrive on Social, Chaos Coordination LLC, Jamestown Catering Co., Peach Blossom Direct Primary Care, and many others, helped make this dream a reality.

From the beautiful decor and the buzzing energy in the room to the shared laughs, support, and new connections made, this day truly felt magical.

A very special thank you to our event planner, Poppy & Prim Events, and to all who worked behind the scenes to create a seamless and inspiring experience.

This event was just the beginning. We are excited to continue building spaces where women-owned businesses and creatives can shine, collaborate, and grow together.

Thank you for being part of this incredible day. We can't wait to see you at the next one!
