Getting Started

For as long as I can remember I have wanted to be an event planner. I feel as though this was my destiny at a very early age. Although my event coordinating skills were not refined I always had a knack for being at the right place at the right time. For some reason wherever a party was you could be assured that I was there or at the root of it. To me now it seems funny because all my life I have been told that I have this great need to always be at the center of every social gathering. My main goal was to get to that party or get to that event. I manuevered, manipulated, and schemed. I can't quite point what my fascination was. Perhaps it was the social aspect or maybe even it was just not wanting to miss out on the next best thing. I can't really remember why or what, but I do know that creating something that brings people together in a social gathering for food, music, beverages, and fun really caught my eye.

I love the allure of creating an event with a theme that completely dumbfounds and amazes people at there very core. A night to remember is what motivates me. As a child my parents always had parties, and extreme ones for that matter. The elaborate themes, the eccentric people, the extravagant food, all brought about this feeling inside me. I just didn't want it to end. I think that creating and managing a grand event puts a sense of accomplishment on my face. That I created this thing that everyone wants to come to. And its the whispers about how great the party was or how unique and uncomparable it is after the event that makes me really shine.
