With over a decade of experience - here’s my essential must haves, both mentally and literally.

How do we accommodate our guests while maintaining social distancing?

Pierogi are very flexible, and so you can stuff them with your choice of savory or sweet. Traditionally, it’s some combination of potato and cheese - but use what you have at home…

The question I wished more of my clients would ask before making a decision - Restaurant or Caterer? Of course, it depends on your occasion and venue, but 9 times out of 10, I'd answer Caterer. Then, I would recommend one, or several that I can confidently stand beside.

It's funny what might inspire you to do a Styled Shoot, and everyone seemed to be talking about Pantone's Color of the Year, Greenery Green. Truthfully, my inspiration came the instant I got an email from BBJ Linen featuring Aquarelle! I was hooked! The pattern evoked Joy, with an abstract nod to Florals, then the colors made me think Bold and Fun!

As an Event Planner, the idea of a Styled Shoot is FUN! A chance to get creative - showing off your style and aesthetic with no one else in mind but you and your vendors!

As an Event Planner who specializes in food, I was shocked to hear about this bride in Australia, and wanted to weigh in. To quickly summarize the story, the bride was vegetarian, and sued her caterer for neglecting to serve an adequate vegetarian menu.

Events are ultimately about hospitality – the earliest forms of this go back to biblical times when people open their homes to guests, even strangers and break bread.  This sharing of food is what the rest of hospitality is based around.
