As an Event Planner it is not often that I get to be in front of the camera so when the opportunity arose to participate in this photo-shoot with Trang Vo from Vo Floral Design, I had to take it!

I will keep this short and sweet; I am beyond excited to share with you all that I was chosen as Runner-Up for Diablo Magazine's 2019 Best of the The East Bay Event Planner!

A first birthday is such a tremendous milestone for both the little one and their parents and it absolutely warrants a fun celebration; and that is absolutely what I planned for this berry​ sweet birthday girl!

As any event planner would tell you, the invitation is what sets the tone for any event. Wether you are sending out Save the Dates as your first piece of stationery or jumping right to the invitations, the color and theme starts at that point and should be carried-out throughout the actual event! 

I am a firm believer in sending out paper invitations for all events from birthday parties to hosted dinners to weddings because it adds such a personal element for guests to receive them! Maybe I am old-school but I love sending and receiving mail. Basic Invite is such a great online invitation website that carries over 900 elegant wedding invitations and coordinating stationery pieces. One of the many things about Basic Invites that I loved is that they have such a wide array of invitations for all different types of events, not too mention all of the coordinating pieces of stationery to go along with each invitation!

Surrounded by anchors, sea shells, and all of the beautiful shades of blue, this Nautical inspired baby shower made for the cutest celebration!

A few months ago I was strolling around our wonderful downtown area here in Danville and passed by this sweet bridal boutique, Brides on Hartz, and this idea instantly popped in my head of how I could collaborate with them. I knew a bridal event was a must and I was determined to make it happen! 

As an Event Planner for nearly 15 years with a substantial amount of time spent as a Wedding Planner, I have used my experience to compile my top 5 reasons that I feel people should hire a Wedding Planner. Planning a wedding is as tedious and time-consuming as you make it, but, it can definitely take over your life for the duration of your engagement. Wedding Planners are here to make your life easier and your planning more fun!
