Can’t believe it was one week ago today that I was able to throw my hubby a surprise 40th birthday! The theme was James Bond- 0040, and the decor and outfits did NOT disappoint! I had the pleasure of working with my favorite sweet treat vendor Victoria's Cake Pops, as well as some brand new vendors (who I would HIGHLY recommend!) Photobooth: Illiana Top PhotoBooths and Champagne Wall: Honey + Sage Charcuterie. It was the perfect night and a great time was had by all! #0040

This is a sad day for party planners…Party City announced it is permanently closing its doors and going out of business. I not only used to work at Party City, but I can’t tell you how time/money I have spent there over the years. It is basically where it all started for me in the 90’s when I first started doing independent event planning and got so much inspiration for all my themes and parties. Thank you, Party City…you were so good to me and you will be missed! 😢😔

I can’t say it enough…I am truly blessed to get to be a part of so many of your special days/occasions. I am sincerely thankful to be able to do what I love, and I am forever grateful for all the continued support, referrals, and clients I am fortunate enough to work with. Hope everyone had a safe and Happy Thanksgiving! Gobble gobble y’all!

“It’s Showtime!!!” Nothing says Halloween Spooktacular like a little themed shindig complete with special syringe welcome cocktails, char-BOOterie boards, a Brew Bar with “shrunken head” cider, too many White Castle sliders to count, and a graveyard pumpkin patch for the kiddos. Say it three times…

Beetlejuice, Beetlejuice, Beetlejuice!!!!!!

This weekend I had the absolute pleasure of coordinating a wedding for the beautiful Kara Stooksbury and her new hubby, Brad. This wedding was TWO YEARS in the making and a great deal of planning went into every detail to make sure their vision came to life.

The venue was gorgeous. Both the ceremony and reception were held at the Bell Mare in Galien, Michigan. I also had the pleasure of sharing the day with some of the nicest, most helpful vendors I have ever worked with. From the venue owners, to the florist, to the photographers/videographers….the DJ to the bakery and caterers…EVERYONE worked together as a team to make the bride and groom’s day perfect. There was even a live painter, which was a big hit with the guests.

This couple did so many DIY aspects with all their decor and special details ahead of time that when it came to the big day, it was my job to ensure everything came together EXACTLY how they envisioned it. I was entrusted with communicating with all the vendors and making sure we kept to the couple’s timeline as well as decorating the entire venue from top to bottom (literally…since there were 2 floors).

I can’t thank my “assistant” (aka my amazing husband, Jeff) enough for helping me execute every single detail, being my laborer for all the heavy lifting, and just being my constant support system while I follow my dreams! I couldn’t do it without him!!

It was a perfect weekend for a wedding and a HUGE CONGRATULATIONS to the new Mr. and Mrs. Stooksbury! Thank you from the bottom of my heart for allowing me to be a part of your beautiful day! And a giant shout out to Erin Ackley for referring me to this great couple and for always supporting me/my business! ❤️

Who doesn’t love a little lakeside charcuterie?! Friendly reminder…I not only party plan, I do custom charcuterie boards for all occasions! This past weekend, I had the pleasure of doing a spread for a very special couple who were celebrating the 50th Anniversary of their lake house. This board featured several different cheese selections, a variety of meat and crackers, some fruit, tasty jams, and a customized “50” as the centerpiece filled with even more goodies! Mark Your Calendar is your one stop shop for budget friendly parties and food! Contact me for your next function, event, or get together!

To all the women out there who are absolutely killin’ it…to the women who get up every morning, put on a brave face, smile through the tears or insecurities, and choose to take on the world…to the women who overcome anxiety, depression, and mental health issues and choose to fiercely battle their demons despite how hard it can be…to the women who are mothers and to those wishing they could be mothers, to the ones who are stay at home parents and to the ones who are professional career women…finally to the women who support other women emotionally, verbally, mentally, and more: this day is for you!

Happy International Women’s Day.
We are amazing, we are beautiful, and we are badass!

Y’all! Two things make this girl VERY, very HAPPY on a Monday…finally getting my new Valentine’s pink Stanley Cup (yes, I am one of THOSE girls and ya gotta stay hydrated when you are in full blown party-planning mode🤪) and…….

BOOKING A WEDDING!!!!!! 🥳💍🥳👰‍♀️ 🥳 🍰

I now have the pleasure of working with a super sweet couple to help ensure their wedding is everything they dream of and more on May 31st, 2025!

It’s so crazy to me that I met this bride’s best friend randomly, gave her my contact information, she passed it along to the bride, and BAM! Let the wedding coordinating festivities begin! ❤️ So beyond grateful that I get to do what I am passionate about in life and so excited to work with this awesome couple!
