Event & Party Planner

Your party,
planned to
perfection

Weddings, birthdays, baby showers, corporate galas, holiday parties, quinceañeras, and everything in between. I plan it, design it, coordinate your vendors, and run the day, down to the last plate and centerpiece.

What I Do

Every Occasion,
Beautifully Handled

From an intimate baby shower for 15 to a large wedding reception, I coordinate the venue, caterer, florist, rentals, decor, and timeline so you don't have to.

Meet Your Planner

Hi, I'm Marcela

I've spent over a decade planning parties and events of every size and style. What I love most is the transformation: an empty room becoming a space that makes people gasp when they walk in. My approach is hands-on. I personally coordinate the catering, select the tableware, arrange the decor, and manage every vendor so that nothing falls through the cracks.

Holiday parties, corporate dinners, graduation celebrations, themed kids' parties, anniversary dinners, you name it. If there's a guest list and a reason to celebrate, I'll make it extraordinary.

Let's Work Together

How It Works

From Vision to Celebration

Four steps that turn your ideas into a beautifully run event.

Consultation

We talk about your event type, guest count, budget, venue ideas, dietary needs, and the vibe you're going for. No detail is too small.

Design & Source

I build your event concept: theme, color palette, menu selections, decor, rentals (plates, linens, glassware), florals, and a full vendor lineup.

Coordinate

Contracts, delivery windows, setup schedules, and backup plans are confirmed. I coordinate the caterer, florist, DJ, photographer, and rental companies you book.

Celebrate

On event day, I'm on site for the hours in your plan, running the timeline behind the scenes. You show up, enjoy your guests, and take all the credit.

Planning & Pricing

Planning fees, clearly explained

Every proposal separates my planning fee from what your event will purchase, so you know what you are paying for before anything is booked.

Planning fees cover the work listed in your proposal. Venue, food, drinks, flowers, rentals, and other event purchases are priced separately unless specifically included.

  • Celebrations Planning fee guide $2,625 to $5,250+ Showers, birthdays, and milestone parties
  • Weddings Planning fee guide $3,500 to $14,000+ From wedding management to full planning and design
  • Quinceañeras Planning fee guide $4,900+ Reception planning, or ceremony and reception together
  • Corporate & holiday Planning fee guide $4,550+ Team celebrations, client events, and holiday parties

We hired Marcela for our daughter's quinceañera and she absolutely nailed it. The food, the decorations, the table settings, everything was exactly what we envisioned but better. She took all the stress off our plate.
