Quay Word Events was born out of the desire to combine the passion of the hospitality industry with the creativity and precision of the event planning industry. Owner/lead event planner Anya Harvey recently moved back to Vancouver Island after 12 years in Montreal. During her time in Montreal Anya discovered a love for planning & executing events both big & small. With 15 years experience in the h
ospitality industry, and 5 years experience coordinating and executing events, Anya is thrilled to bring her expertise and passion to Port Alberni's events sector. Anya is an easy going and open minded individual, with a keen eye for detail and perfection. See below for some of the services that Quay Word Events offers
