  • Close your eyes and picture yourself at your event: you're greeting your guests, and smiling, hugging and laughing. You've got a refreshing drink in your hand and you are soaking up the joyous atmophere of this special occasion. You sit down to eat a mouthwatering dish of your favorite cuisine and chat with your guests. The conversation is so side-splittingly funny and wonderful, that even your napkin is in stitches! When the photographer appears, your smile is so radiant, the camera needs sunglasses, and the videographer films all the moments, ensuring that your happiness radiates through every frame. Your event is pure bliss, and I'm the event and wedding coordinator who can help you turn it into a laughter-filled extravaganza. Let's make your event so epic that Taylor Swift (or your favorite artist) will be writing songs about it!

Get ready for a journey where warmth meets competence and experience, and where professionalism is infused with a personal touch – it's an experience that will leave you with an incredible event, and will have you ready to host more! This combination is the secret sauce to creating a successful, and memorable event.

    "WOW! Finding words to express my gratitude for your amazing talent is difficult.

     

    Honestly I, or WE, couldn’t have pulled off our wedding without you. You responded quickly when questions had been asked, you provided wonderful recommendations and your assistance with tasks, rehearsal, as well as the wedding….you were a Rock Star!

     

    I’m so thankful that we made the choice to contact you. You made the entire process stress free.

     

    Thank you again for EVERYTHING!"

  • Let's Talk Process

    1

    Your Vision

    First, you talk, I listen. I prefer to meet in person, in my base location of Eugene, Oregon. But I also love doing video chats if you’re not close! I’ve done this with many clients. You tell me where you’re at with planning, what’s troubling you, what you need help with, and what you are looking for from me.

    Your Trusted Partner

    After we connect, we decide would be best for your needs and your budget. For weddings, that's one of my packages, but I have other services and add-ons available, too! I'll create a draft of our contract, which you can view before signing. This is to protect both of us! Finally, there is a retainer to pay that reserves your date on my calendar. Once those two things are done, we’re ready to roll with whatever you want to work on next! I like to think of it as your big sister coming to support you in your vision and desires for your big event.

    Your Stress-Free Event

    Throughout our relationship, you can contact me however you feel most comfortable. You can get help with making decisions, finding all kinds of vendors, designing printed materials for your big event, getting advice on how to deal with family members or coworkers or guests, searching for the right decor style and items, DIYing things, communication with vendors you've hired, and of course, a timeline to keep everything straight. The best relationship is when you know what you want, and you trust that I can take that vision and make it a reality. More than anything, you’re going to find yourself less stressed and overwhelmed, because you have guidance from me.

    Passion Meets Precision:

    Crafting Memorable Events with Heart and Expertise

    I have really always loved event planning. I am extremely organized, have a great attention to detail, an eye for what matters, and I love helping people. This translates so well into event planning - staying organized with all the different aspects that go into an event, making sure details aren't missed (but neither is the big picture) and making sure people feel like their event was successful with my help!

     

    Helping people makes me feel useful, and needed. It's in my nature! It gives me a connection to people that I might not normally connect with. I know that my help makes your life better. This business helps me feel like I am doing something real, something that really matters to people.

     

    My home base is Eugene, Oregon, but I am more than willing to travel! I have done weddings around the state of Oregon. I would love to move into the Spokane and Coeur d'Alene areas for more weddings and events! And since I'm a travel junkie, doing a destination or international wedding would be incredible!

    "Erin was very punctual, kept me on track, and when she didn’t hear from me for a while because her email got lost in all my other wedding emails, she made sure to send a follow-up email. She made sure to have the contact info to all my vendors so I didn’t have to deal with any of the day-of communication, which was the most helpful!"
