Pink Polka Dot Store

Year Established – The Pink Polka Dot was established in 2009 by Jennifer Chagnon.

The story behind the name/logo – Jen knew she wanted to do wedding planning yet she knew she did not want a name with wedding in it because she did not want to limit herself to just wedding or event planning. Jen had always loved the color pink and there was a store she loved as a kid in Florida called the Purple Turtle. After a bit of brainstorming she decided to create a name with her favorite color in the name and hence The Pink Polka Dot. Jen also designed the logo for the store.

Why This Dream – Jen has always loved planning events. While in college she planned events for her sorority as well as large events like concerts for the student activity office. Jen graduated from Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University and is a licensed pilot. She began her career in the world of aviation insurance. When she planned her wedding the idea crystalized that this was something she wanted to do full time and get out of the corporate cubical lifestyle. She also loved the idea of doing everything in a small business from product selection to marketing and sales and being her own boss.

Pink Polka Dot cards

Fan Favorite Items – A lot of customers come year round to purchase cards at the store. Some customers will come in and purchase 20 or 30 cards at a time and stock up. The Pink Polka Dot carries a lot of very unique artisan cards that are hand made and can not be found anywhere else locally. A favorite happening for Jen is when it is really quiet in the store and she will hear a customer over viewing the cards start laughing at a saying captured in a card and then say “these are the best cards”.
