KYROS Event Specialists

YAY! We just got our business name approved yesterday...one step closer now =)

So I've had people ask me where that name comes from and what the significance of it is. Our name Kyros is derived from the greek word Kairos which is roughly translated as 'the right moment'. Time is such a complex matter that the Greek had two terms to describe it, Kairos and Chronos. Chronos time is what the world runs by; its a quantitative measure we can tell by looking at the hands of a clock. It is what we schedule our lives by - deadlines, appointments, meetings etc.

Kairos is that moment in time, where chronos time suspends itself - it can not be measured.  It is a particular moment, out of all the ordinary moments in time that has the capability to forever change the outcome of time itself. Kairos is the moment of decision, the moment of action, the moment of change. I'm sure we all remember a time where we can vividly recall every thought running through our mind, every emotion we felt, every scent we smell, every colour we see, every sounds we hear, every touch we feel...

Having a child


Fulfilling a dream


Falling in love

These momentous events are memories that are forever etched in our minds and hearts, adding to the fullness of our lives. As event planners, we want to capture the essence of these moments and serve our clients by creating that with them.

What an honour it is to have the ability to play that part in someone's life.

So there is the story behind our name. Now its time to think of a logo, symbol, icon that will capture that..there is still a lot of work ahead but I'm excited as to what is to come =)
