"Either you run the day or the day runs you". -Jim Rohn 

Planning and executing a successful event requires careful attention to detail and organization. Depending on the scope, size and type of event, there can be dozens of details that need to be well thought out and planned for.

​

Timeline. Budget. Contracts. Venue Sourcing. Vendors. Guests. Scheduling. Logistics. Audio & Visual. Entertainment. Transportation. Accommodations. Food & Beverage Management. Decor. Contingency. Brand. Goals. Outcomes. More.

​

It's a lot but I'm here to help. Don't let the day run you.

Specialization in a variety of corporate, non-profit, and social events

Barbara Chambers, EVP @ Cure Alzheimers Fund

“I have had the pleasure of working with Kristen Hawley for 5 years as a member of the Cure Alzheimer’s Fund Marketing & Communications team, and now as a contractor. For more than 25 years, I have had responsibility for company events of all sizes. In my opinion, those who are exceptional at providing event services always put the company’s goals and objectives, first, and this is an attribute that Kristen brings to event planning. She always considers the needs of the company, listens to the wishes, and concerns, and recommends solutions to meet those needs. If a need cannot be met, Kristen provides the reasons and suggests alternative options. Kristen works hard at providing the best event possible and I engage with Kristen for as long as I have responsibility for events.”
