Hi, I’m Jennifer!
An event consultant helping hosts bring gatherings to life through intentional planning, thoughtful details, and a clear plan that creates a welcoming atmosphere and allows everyone to be fully present.
Gathering is about more than the details. The most memorable gatherings keep us close to the present moment.
Noticing simple pleasures, inspiring conversation, and leaving room for beauty in the unexpected.
The plan and details are only part of the gathering: what is set out, what is passed around, and what invites people to engage.
The deeper work is creating warmth and an atmosphere where everyone feels welcomed, so you and your guests can be fully present and enjoy the time together.
A planning day for your gathering
We’ll set aside time to take your ideas, questions, open decisions, and unfinished details into one place and shape them into a clear, workable plan for the gathering you are creating.
It helps you create an atmosphere where people feel welcomed—while you, as the host, are confident in the decision-making process to bring the event to life.
For hosts planning a wedding, shower, private dinner or celebration, workshop, retreat, or another meaningful gathering, this is a thoughtful way to organize the details while staying close to the feeling and people at the heart of it all.
Here are a few ways I can help…
You can feel the shape of what you want, but need space to bring the details together.
You want a calmer, clearer way to move forward with family, guests, vendors, and other collaborators.
You want more room to be present—not lose yourself in the list of decisions.
You have the big picture: the venue, the feeling, the theme, but need help bringing the details together.
This consultation day is a thoughtful middle ground between doing it all yourself and hiring a full-service planner.
If you’re looking for a thoughtful place to begin, this mini version of The Intentional Planning Day offers a focused consultation for high-level clarity and direction. It is a smaller starting point—not a replacement for the more detailed support of the full planning day.
How I might be able to help…
You want to clarify the vision and feeling at the heart of your gathering.
You need help identifying the most important decisions and next steps.
You’re ready for a simple, grounded path forward without the deeper detail of a full planning day.
What we’ll cover
The gathering’s vision, priorities, and the experience you want to create.
The decisions that matter most right now.
A clear set of next steps to help you begin with intention.
What you’ll leave with
More clarity, calm, and confidence about where to begin.
A simple high-level plan and grounded sense of direction.
More room to stay present to the feeling and people at the heart of the gathering.
Follow-up call to review the plan, adjust as needed, and answer any questions.
Monthly email support leading up to the day of the event.
Step 1: Choose your experience
You have the vision—the feeling, shape, and big picture of the gathering. This focused consultation day helps bring the details together into a workable plan, so moving forward feels calmer and more clear.
It’s a thoughtful middle ground between doing everything alone and hiring a full-service planner: focused support for the pieces that need sorting, shaping, and deciding.
How I might be able to help…
You have a sense of how you want the gathering to feel, and want help structuring the details.
You want thoughtful support sorting what matters most to create room to focus on the fun of planning an event . . . your creativity, the joy of welcoming others, the time you will spend together.
You’d like a clearer path forward, putting the pieces together in a way that feels more doable, and to see how warmth, welcome, and the natural rhythm of the gathering can be possible.
What we’ll do
Discovery call to share the vision, details, and “punch list” items you’d like supported.
One focused planning day of behind-the-scenes work to organize and prioritize the details.
Practical planning support with a moodboard, timeline, tasks, resource list, and time savers.
You’ll leave with
A finalized, workable event plan with the decisions and next steps gathered in one clear place.
More clarity, calm, and confidence as the gathering takes shape.
More room to be present for the people, simple pleasures, and the creative process in the planning.
3 Follow-up Calls for your feedback, questions, and any final details to bring into the plan.
Weekly email support up until the day of the event.
