testimonials

“Joye and her team are the best at what they do – dream creation. They did an awesome job with bringing forth our vision of our wedding from end to end…We were extremely pleased with the final product and really appreciated her patience and expert knowledge. Totally glad to say that I’m a VIRTUE bride.”

Michele Johnson

virtue bride

“I had the opportunity to work with Joye on a wedding at the Highland Brewing Company in Asheville as the florist on the team. Joye was exceptionally kind, patient, calm and clear in communication. With her, it was all about making sure everything was executed for the couple's dream day. She understood the value each vendor plays in bringing that to fruition and she worked like a team player. I highly recommend her and her team and look forward to working with her again.”

“I’ve been able to work with Joye and her team on several events. After spending 30 minutes with Joye, she instantly got the vision and was ready to execute. It’s refreshing to have someone take the time to understand your company’s brand, look/feel, and be able to create a unique and powerful event that reinforces all of that.”

Adam Klein

Capitol Broadcasting Co

“Joye’s work with us has been both thorough and effective. She is a gifted, careful and creative person, with an eye for details and a devotion to logic. I can readily attest to her continual performance of diligence and faithful commitment. She has the ability to draw on her own experience and observations to develop thoughtful opinions on a variety of issues. Joye facilitates confidence and courage, along with bolstering the skill sets in individuals to meet their goals. She is hard working, honest, reliable, caring, diligent and conscientious.”

Dr. Cleo V. Townsend

The Resurrection Center

Creative, energetic and efficient all wrapped in a fun, friendly team! That is the best way to describe Virtue Events. The Durham Chamber has partnered with Virtue on several events and each time we appreciate the extra care and attention to detail that they bring to our events. Joye is amazing and her team has that same “can-do” attitude. Whether it is a last minute project or a signature event a year in the making, Virtue Events always delivers.
