With decades of event and wedding planning experience, you can be certain that I do a lot more than manage vendors and timelines!

I’m the one who helps bring out your ideas to create the vision and brings it into a cohesive plan.

I bring together the right creative partners and thoughtful details to create an experience that feels true to you (and make the planning process fun!).

I’m also the calm in the storm when family dynamics, tricky conversations, or demanding requests pop up. I help you make confident decisions, keep everyone aligned, and turn ‘what if’ moments into ‘we’ve got this’ solutions.

Think of me as part planner, part diplomat, part strategist, part problem-solver. My goal? Keep the peace and keep things seamless so the focus stays where it should - celebrating! 🥂

Such an incredible honour to produce this unforgettable Greek Harvest Gala hosted by in support of - an organization doing such meaningful work to ensure no mama or child is left behind.

I’m so grateful to have worked alongside the Mama’s extraordinary team led by and a team of creative, generous, and talented people who helped bring this event to life.

Here’s to continuing to grow the power of community and compassion and making more magic for a cause that truly matters.

Massive thank you to my family and that amazing team at
These things take a village (and very little sleep!) and I can’t imagine making this kind of thing happen without .origami.weddings .co and my brilliant team (Diana and Livi) who anticipate, care, and deliver - every time.

And the wonderful vendors who brought their energy and heart

Receiving lines are boring and out of style... but how about a photo conga line! After the ceremony, J & W had a photo op with each of the guests to kick off cocktail hour! A perfect way to hold on to those memories with your favourite people.

This project has been months in the making, and I’m beyond excited to share my new website with you! It reflects not only what I do, but how I love to work with my clients - collaborative, personalized, and centered on connection. For me, what I do is about more than planning events - it's about the power of human connection, and creating moments and opportunities to bring people closer together.
Here's to a new chapter! Hope you come along for the ride.🥂

Thinking of planning your own event? From a milestone birthday to a corporate reception or conference, here are just some of the things an event planner does that often get overlooked:

-Finds the right venue (and asks all the right questions!).
-Sources and manages vendors, tech, staffing, and rentals.
-Creates detailed plans and timelines so everyone knows where to be and when.
-Troubleshoots real-time issues (without anyone noticing!).
-Guides the design and flow so it feels cohesive, elevated, and personal.
-Keeps you calm when things inevitably shift.

When I’m behind the scenes, you get to actually enjoy your event instead of worrying about what’s next on the checklist. My goal? For it to feel effortless (because someone else is taking care of the effort!).

And if you're planning your own event and think you could benefit from some help from a professional to get started or to check in and keep you on track, we offer event consulting too. Sometimes, a guiding hand is all you need. Click the link in the bio to get in touch and we'll guide you through!

Last summer we had the joy of seeing this beautiful vision come to life. Every event and wedding we produce is the result of thoughtful planning, collaboration with the best wedding pro's, and intentional choices made long before the big day. From early conversations to final touches, so much time and care goes into making each celebration feel seamless, personal, and unforgettable.

Dog lover? Same! So if you’re dreaming of having your fur baby at your wedding - I got you!
Dogs can bring an extra dose of joy to your day. But here are a few things to consider:
-Are they comfortable around crowds and noise?
-Do you have a designated dog handler who your dog knows and trusts?

There needs to be a plan for water, walks, and doggie downtime (as well as lots of cuddles and photos!) and you'll need an exit plan when it's reception time. Most venues (understandably) don't permit animals due to health regulations.

With a little planning (and maybe some treats), your furry friend can totally be part of the celebration - without adding stress to your day.

Thinking about including your pup? Let’s make a plan that works for everyone - paws and all!
