Simply Celebrations & Events plans and coordinates personal and corporate celebrations. I strive to personalize your celebration with excellent customer service, creative consultation with you and attention to the details. My goal is for every client to enjoy the experience of being a guest at their own event.

Planning eco-friendly events is another part of my business. Life should be celebrated whether it is a wedding, anniversary, birthday or corporate event. However when we celebrate these, we can create a lot of waste, use many resources and make an impact on our local ecology.

It is possible to have a celebration that makes a great impression on the guests while making a much smaller impact on the environment. The concepts of reuse, renew and recycle can be applied to your next event in a few simple ways. The end result will be a wonderful celebration for you at the same time you can do a good turn for the earth.

My love for all the details and natural talent for multi-tasking translates well in the successful coordination of weddings and events. Those qualities, along with a proven ability to network and utilize available resources, will result in a beautifully planned event for you.

I am a professional with experience in project management and organization of events. With seven years as a successful brand manager in the natural foods industry, I have transferred these skills, my creativity and passion to operating my own company in the event industry since November 2006. I worked eight years part-time for two gourmet caterers and recently five years coordinating sales meetings and exhibitor booths. My bachelors degree in psychology helps navigate those more delicate emotional aspects of nerves and family matters that arise while planning weddings and personal events. In the spirit of continued education, I regularly attends classes and workshops in the event industry.
