ABOUT 209 MARQUEE
Hi! We’re Cesar and Diana Avalos, the husband-and-wife team behind our small woodworking business based in Atwater, California.
At just 20 years old, we’re building more than a business — we’re building something for our family and our future. We’re proud parents to our baby boy, Ezekiel, who gives us even more motivation to keep growing, creating, and turning our ideas into something meaningful.
Our journey started right inside our garage when Cesar decided to turn an idea into reality and build his very first 4-foot marquee letter. With no idea exactly where it would lead, he took his time, trusted the process, and brought his vision to life. When that first letter was finished, he realized he had discovered a skill and passion he wanted to pursue.
With every new piece came more practice, more attention to detail, and more improvement. What started with a single marquee letter eventually grew into a collection of handcrafted pieces and a garage filled with tools. Today, that same garage has become our own little workshop here in Atwater, where Cesar continues to build each piece by hand.
While Cesar handles the woodworking and brings each creation to life, Diana is the heart behind the scenes, managing our social media, promotions, finances, and many of the details that keep our business moving forward. Together, we’ve turned a simple idea into something we’re truly proud to call ours.
Our goal is simple: to create pieces that help make your special moments even more memorable and unforgettable. Whether it’s a birthday, wedding, baby shower, anniversary, graduation, or another milestone worth celebrating, we love knowing that something we created can become a small part of a memory that lasts a lifetime.
We’re still growing, still learning, and still dreaming bigger every day. Every rental, booking, share, and recommendation means more to our little family than you may realize.
Thank you for supporting our small business, our family, and our dream. We can’t wait to be a part of your next special event!
