Planning an event? Here are the 3 steps I recommend doing first!

Create Your Budget: Get clear on your financial boundaries from the start. Knowing what you can afford keeps you on track. Look into costs for similar events in your area.

Decide Your Priorities: Determining event goals and objectives early on will help you stay on course when planning your event. If you choose to focus on the food, you can align your vision and budget with this instead of spending time worrying about other aspects of the event that are not as high of a priority.

Choose a Date and/or Venue: Select a date and venue that align with your event's goals. Knowing your budget and priorities prior to venue touring will save you lots of time and energy.

Don't want to handle the planning yourself? You can always hire me as your event planner! I would be happy to take over the planning process so you can simply enjoy🌟

Halfway through a venue tour, my client looked at me and said "I love that you get to worry about all the details and I get to be excited." 🥹💗

It's important to me that my clients FEEL good when working with me. After booking my services, my clients should only "get to be excited" instead of worrying about the details.

Check out what some of my clients are saying😍

There is truly no better feeling than knowing that my clients are beyond happy with my services!

04/23/2024

I've always been the person who overthinks, worries about the details, and organizes timelines in my head for my family (even though I was never the one in charge 😂). Little did I know that these natural tendencies would become some of the most valuable traits for my job!

By pairing those natural tendencies with my genuine love for others, I am confident in the work I do as an event planner. I can truly say that I LOVE what I do! 🩷 It is never lost on me the trust my clients have in me by allowing me to execute such special moments in their life.

If you are looking to work with someone who loves what they do, has years of experience, and genuinely cares about your event's success then I would love to chat with you about your upcoming events. Submit the form on my website or send me a message to get started!

Planning an event can be a daunting task, whether it's a corporate event, wedding, or any other special occasion.

I am not sure about you, but I have yet to come across a business owner that has extra time on their hands! So many would love to have an event for their team, but have no time to execute it. That is where I come in! 🌟

Regardless of the size of your company, there are multiple events we can plan. Here are a few examples of events we can plan for your business:

Workshops and Training Sessions: Organize workshops or training sessions to enhance employees' skills and knowledge. Topics can include leadership development, communication skills, or industry-specific training.

Employee Appreciation Days: Dedicate a day to recognize and appreciate your employees' hard work and dedication. Arrange activities such as catered lunches, award ceremonies, or small gifts to show appreciation

Milestone Celebrations: Recognize significant milestones such as company anniversaries, product launches, or project completions. Throw a celebration to acknowledge achievements and motivate employees!

Family-Friendly Events: Organize family-friendly events where employees can bring their families along. Consider hosting picnics, BBQs, or movie nights to include employees' loved ones and strengthen the sense of community within the company. This is my personal favorite!

Networking Events: Host networking events where employees can connect with professionals from other organizations or industries. These events can help grow employees' professional networks and foster new business opportunities.

Reach out today to discuss potential event opportunties for your company. I would love the opportunity to brainstorm which events would be best for your company and share more about my planning services. Everyone likes a celebration, and your business deserves a celebration!

Having a *slight* preference for things going according to plan is just part of the job description, right? 😅

There are few things I love more than a plan! But let's face it, one constant remains: always expect the unexpected. Working with an experienced planner ensures proactive measures are taken to limit potential issues, while also having the skills to adapt to unforeseen circumstances gracefully. Most of the time, without the client even knowing!

Looking to plan an event? Let's make magic happen – according to the plan, of course!😉

Let's talk a little more about the "why" behind Riley Jordan Events.🌟

I have a genuine love for planning. Call me extremely organized (or a control freak🤪) but there is nothing I love more than diving deep into the nitty-gritty of planning.

I'm passionate about bringing people together. In a world that sometimes feels divided, creating events where people can come together, celebrate, and find common ground is something I look forward to.

My biggest desire it to turn events into moments. Anyone can organize an event, but it takes a special touch to turn it into a moment—one that lives in the hearts and memories of those who experience it.

My business is an extension of who I am—a dreamer, a doer, and a believer in the power of connection. Thank you for supporting RJE 🩷

these details 😍😍

Sometimes people spend all of their time making one aspect of the event picture perfect, but they might overlook the finer details in other areas. Incorporating small touches like the ones in these photos can elevate the event experience. It is important to tie all aspects of an event together!

Which is your favorite?! Mine is the first one- I am obsessed with anything baby's breath!🩷
