Meet brianna dunlap

We had the good fortune of connecting with brianna dunlap and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi brianna, we’d love to hear more about how you thought about starting your own business?
I wanted to start my own business to have more time with my two year old daughter and to be able to make my own schedule.

Let’s talk shop? Tell us more about your career, what can you share with our community?
Ceremony Coffee is a mobile espresso bar that is ran solely by me. I cater to people looking to elevate their events with adding high quality specialty lattes to their event. I use the industries leading espresso machine equipment and have years of experience with hospitality. It hasn’t been easy but I am passionate about coffee and community and plan to do this long term and to open a brick and mortar one day. I would like people to know that they can really make a lasting impression with choosing a mobile espresso bar for their events and alcohol isn’t the only thing that needs to be at a wedding etc.

Any places to eat or things to do that you can share with our readers? If they have a friend visiting town, what are some spots they could take them to?
I would take them to visit all the coffee options available to us on the coast 101 hwy and to moonlight beach so that our kids could play and then to plumeria for a great vegetarian Thai dinner.

The Shoutout series is all about recognizing that our success and where we are in life is at least somewhat thanks to the efforts, support, mentorship, love and encouragement of others. So is there someone that you want to dedicate your shoutout to?
I want to shout out my partner for supporting and encouraging me to take the steps to put time into launching my own business. It can be very scary, but knowing I have that support was so helpful.
