Crystal Rose Franchise Opens in Colorado Springs
Congratulations to Scott and Cindy Trude for joining the Crystal Rose franchise family.
As of February 26th, the Trudes are the first Crystal Rose franchise owners. They will open their Crystal Rose Wedding and Event Center in Colorado Springs, Colorado in the spring, just in time for wedding season.
Scott said he had no idea that they would be in the wedding business when they set out on their journey to find the perfect business. They worked directly with Denver-based Franchise Matchmaker consultant Bill Thomas. They wanted a business where they could work together as a family with their two daughters. Initially, they considered a deli or quick-service restaurant.
By working through the discovery steps with them, Bill helped the Trudes to truly assess their needs and goals. Crystal Rose was the best match for them in every way. They can run the business together and enjoy being a part of special occasions. One of Scott’s daughters is an up-and- coming photographer and will offer her photography services to their clients. “A marriage made in heaven,” you could say!
The Trudes are already looking at a second location in Colorado Springs and have received their first wedding booking for the summer. Crystal Rose CEO, Jay Byerly said the Trude family is a perfect fit for them and he is very excited to have them on board.
