About Rival Event Planning

Rival Event Planning

Founder/creative director

After serving as Director of Events at multiple venues and coordinating over 100 events, I developed a passion for thoughtful planning, meaningful details, and personalized celebrations. My experience working with venues and vendors gives me a behind-the-scenes understanding of how every element comes together seamlessly. I created Rival Event Planning to provide clients with creative, stress-free planning centered on their vision, style, and priorities. Every event is unique, every client is valued, and every detail matters.

What truly sets Rival Event Planning apart is Having worked from the venue side, I understand every aspect of an event, from venue operations and catering to vendor coordination and logistics. This unique perspective allows me to anticipate needs, communicate effectively with every member, and ensure each piece works together seamlessly. Because I understand the responsibilities and challenges of every role, I can proactively solve problems, keep everyone aligned, and create a smooth, stress-free experience for my clients. My goal is to ensure that every event is not only beautifully executed but also runs effortlessly behind the scenes.

In three words: Confident, Efficient, Organized
