We had so much fun at the market! So many beautiful and cool things to see. We met some local small business owners who are wonderful.
It was fun for all ages lots to do and see!
Nothing but great things to say about Whimsy, such a great group of girls, very organized and kind! I was a vendor at an event and I 100% plan on returning!
Whimsy Market events are a one stop shop for all my favorite small businesses. There is always a variety of different vendors that offer great products, food, or services. Nikki & Erica are always so helpful and help to keep the events running smoothly. I love picking up my favorite products or gift shopping at their events.
These ladies are amazing at what they do! They are passionate about presentation, products, and people...and it shows!
I've been a vendor a couple times now, and I love working with Whimsy!! The girls are so communicative and detail-oriented. Everything is carefully planned out. If I have a question, they respond quickly. And their events are very popular so there has always been a great turnout. I can't wait to vend again!
This was my first event as a vendor. The communication was fantastic. The event was super organized. Nikki and Erica were amazing. And overall the event was very busy and a great success.
I have been a vendor at multiple Whimsy events and they are very well organized and they truly try to make it the simplest process between setup and breaking down at the end of the event. There has been a great turnout at the events as well. Keep up the good work!
This was my first market with Whimsy. I feel like it was super organized, very easy to get in and set up and the venue was really nice. The application was easy to get through as well. Would love to do more events in the future!
I have had the pleasure of attending the whimsy markets as a vendor and shopper.
As a vendor, the whimsy team has been amazing. Between the support and encouragement- they truly want to see small businesses succeed.
As a shopper, I thoroughly enjoy the variety of vendors, the music, and the overall atmosphere is so much fun!
This amazing team of women have it going on! They are organized, business savvy, tech savvy and huge supporters of entrepreneurial businesses! I met them over a year ago and was immediately impressed but they continue to learn and the more they learn, they share! My business has grown quite a bit since working with them and they are a brand I want my brand to be connected with!
We moved to Lake County from the Keys in Oct 2021 and launched Captain Crazy’s Nuts and Fine Snacks in January. We did our first market with a different host in February 2022 with modest success. Then we tried another host with disastrous results. Then we found Whimsy Market, and we found our tribe. The dedication, care, creativity and just plain hard work that Erica & Nikki devote not only to their events but to their community of vendors is outstanding. And, yes, we are a community. One where the members support and encourage each other and lift each other up when need be. Whimsy continues to grow by adding interesting new venues and uniquely-themed events to their roster. This not only helps the vendors but provides fun, entertaining days (and evenings) out for families, couples, girls, guys … everyone. If you’re a maker of high-quality items, join Whimsy Market. If you’re a shopper seeking a unique and fun experience, attend their markets.
What started out as a simple visit to a market has since turned into becoming part of a community. The owners of Whimsy Market believed in me and gave me that push to start up my small business and be a part of their markets. What I thought was just going to be me in a booth selling for some extra income turned into so much more. I was added to a community of small business owners who all rally for each other's success. Small business owners have now become the best of friends. It is not you out there trying to survive but you out there being lifted up and supported no matter how many times you feel you are about to fall. I could not be more proud to call myself a business within the Whimsy Market.
Whimsy markets are run for the vendors. There are markets that are solely in it for the money into their pockets from vendors. Whimsy takes those profits and gives back to their vendors. They walk around to check in on us and make sure that we are okay. They value our feedback whether asked for it or not. The time, effort, and support that they show for each and every one of us does not measure up. Seeing us succeed means they have succeeded.
If you have ever visited a market you will see improvements each time. Reflection, learning, and growth happens after each market. They take pride in making it an experience that you will want to come back and visit. If you have not been, this is your sign to get out and visit a market. You won’t be disappointed.
Weather policy - events will operate rain or shine; however, the event may be canceled due to inclement weather as determined by Whimsy Market's sole discretion. Notification of cancellations will be provided by Whimsy Market via email to vendors and social media. The event may or may not be rescheduled to another date.
