This is an example page. It’s different from a blog post because it will stay in one place and will show up in your site navigation (in most themes). Most people start with an About page that introduces them to potential site visitors. It might say something like this:
Hi there! I’m a bike messenger by day, aspiring actor by night, and this is my website. I live in Los Angeles, have a great dog named Jack, and I like piña coladas. (And gettin’ caught in the rain.)
…or something like this:

(Maryland poet, peacemaker, and philosopher who played, RIP 2014 @ age 13)
Devon has loved life in Annapolis since the mid-90’s. She grew up a military child and later became a military spouse, always living in and around the water and the Navy. This makes Annapolis the perfect forever home for her and her family. Upon arriving in Maryland she worked as an educator at The Naval Academy Primary School. In 2016 Devon and Shelley founded Annapolis Events becoming Devon’s full-time focus in 2018.
Shelley has been creating artful floral designs since her early days as a young Navy wife almost 30 years ago. She continued to design as a creative outlet throughout the subsequent years when she was an elementary education teacher. In 2017, she and Devon combined their talents to begin Annapolis Events to provide resources for those wanting to host events in Annapolis. From that start, Annapolis Events has grown into a full service event design and management studio, with Petal and Stem serving as its in-house event floral studio.
When she is not in the studio, she enjoys traveling with her husband, visiting with their children and grandchildren, and pursuing almost any creative endeavor.
The initiatives Annapolis Events embrace help this community to be more joyful and beautiful, sustaining the traditions and culture of Annapolis, with its “wealth of cultural activities, a glittering social season, gracious hospitality and intellectual stimulation.”
We make it look easy, sure, but planning a memorable and unique event takes innovative design and flawless execution. From concept to conclusion, your event deserves the expertise, knowledge, and connections we have at Annapolis Events.
