At Please Be Seated, event planning isn’t just a service—it’s a passion I’ve carried with me since childhood. From setting a table with care, designing themed menus, or selecting the perfect soundtrack, I’ve always found joy in creating thoughtful, memorable experiences. Hosting has never been about simply gathering people—it’s about crafting moments that feel personal, elevated, and unforgettable.

Over the years, friends and family encouraged me to turn this passion into something more, and I’m proud to have built Please Be Seated into a reflection of that love for detail. What began as a personal joy is now a professional commitment: helping others celebrate life’s most meaningful moments with ease and style.

In addition to planning, my love for curating carries into luxury gifting for every occasion—from birthdays and baby showers to retirements and milestones. I thoughtfully source high-end, locally curated pieces from boutique artisans, pair them with elegant finds from national partners, and design handmade baskets that are as beautiful as they are meaningful. Each gift is tailored to tell a story, just like every event.

At Please Be Seated, I believe every celebration—big or small—deserves intention and artistry. From the first detail to the final toast (or ribbon on a gift), I’ll help you create an experience that’s seamless, memorable, and deeply personal.
