Why should you hire a planner!!
Hey Ya’ll, I am Jessica, the Event Planner and owner of Serendipitous Events I work a little and have a ton of fun in the studio at the Creative Co-Op! I started event planning about 10 years ago and fell in love with the industry, the people and the creativity! When the time was right (in the middle of a major recession) I started my own event planning company, because lets face it, I didn’t want to work for anyone else! I work with Brides, Moms, Dads, CEO’s, Executive Directors and everyone in between! People are often unsure of why to hire an event planner so I thought I would help you understand a bit about what I do and LOVE!
