Cheryl Bailey has worked in the events industry for 12  years and before opening Yellow Umbrella Events, owned an award winning catering company. It was hard to keep her away from the event and travel planning side of the business so she decided to take the leap and follow her love of event planning on a full time basis. She launched Yellow Umbrella Events in 2011 and has been specializing in incentive travel and destination weddings ever since!

When she’s not planning travel for her clients, you can find her hanging out with Shea and her 2 children or on the beach in Mexico.

Shea Bailey grew up in Tennessee (Go Vols!), joined the Army National Guard his senior year of High School, and graduated from Maryville College with a degree in Biology.  After college, Shea spent the next year living in Venezuela while working with a local professor at the Universidad De El Tigre.

After returning home, he entered the “Corporate World” where he gained experience in sales and operations while traveling extensively around the country.  Several years later, Shea decided it was time to take that experience and follow his dream of becoming an entrepreneur and is now the co-owner and operations manager of Yellow Umbrella Events.
