social event experience

We also plan non-wedding events such as galas, holiday parties, birthday parties, wedding showers, baby showers, corporate retreats, and so much more!

Budget Projection

Based on our get-to-know-you phase of planning, I will analyze your ideal budget, location, and style to project a detailed budget for your event day. We will use your budget projection as a guide throughout the event planning process. I will keep track of vendor payments, send reminders when payments are due, and regularly update your budget projection during the planning process.

Procurement

Assembling a rockstar vendor team is one of the first calls to action during the event planning phase of the H&B experience. I will obtain quotes from 2 - 3 professional vendors from each of the following categories on your behalf. Once I review the selections, I will create a vendor comparison spreadsheet for each category and discuss them with you for decision-making.

  • Venue Selection  

  • Catering and Beverage 

  • Florist  

  • Invitations and Stationery

  • Photography and Videography

  • Music & Entertainment 

  • Transportation 

  • Guest Lodging 

  • Rentals & Linens

During each consultation, I will ask relevant questions about the vendor’s services and take detailed notes. I will review the contracts to confirm the correct date, time, services, and price are listed and then forward the final agreements to you for your signature. 

Working With Your Vendor Team

During the event planning phase of the H&B experience, I will be the liaison between you and your contracted venue(s) & vendors to manage logistics and details related to their services. I will schedule & attend your vendor meetings and tastings. I will also communicate any questions/concerns on your behalf and adequately resolve issues to ensure all parties are satisfied with the resolution.

Tailor-Made Guest Experience

Think outside of the box! I work with you and your vendor team to create special touches that spotlight your event objective. Tailor-made service will ensure your guests feel valued as individuals rather than just a face in the crowd; this will also ensure they are a part of your celebration!

Event Styling and Design

Think of this phase of planning as an opportunity to make your Pinterest dreams a reality. We will collaborate to create a shared inspiration board to show the overall event style. I will share feedback and ideas on your color palette, decor, and event details. We will use a shared online visual platform and share ideas throughout the planning process when choosing flowers, linens, rental items, custom design items, stationery, and event signage.

Concierge Service

My concierge service allows you to tell everyone to “ask your planner” versus dealing with the conversation. Your guests can contact me directly with their questions or concerns. In addition to taking care of your guests, I will organize the mailing of your event invitations, track your RSVPs, manage your event website, and consult with your planning committee.
