Intentional event planning for unforgettable moments.
Meet Christine Preziosi
our founder, your event partner
My passion for events started with early family gatherings and volunteering in my local community. This early interest evolved into a career and degree in nonprofit work. Now, my team and I partner with nonprofit leaders and community change-makers to create unforgettable events.
My philosophy is simple: If you aren’t having fun planning your event, you aren’t doing it right.
I want your guests to be excited to celebrate with you and deeply engage with your mission. I believe that people crave community and are inherently generous. This belief is the transformative power of events.
Seamless and stress-free event planning.
One of the hardest parts of putting on an events is finding a great team. We not only have a team of amazing event staff, but also a great track record with vendors, community partners, donors and beyond.
We know that an event is not the only thing on your to-do list. Events are really taxing on teams. Let us handle the details so that you can focus on welcoming in and connecting with your people.
The events we design and the systems we create work for you and your team and are personalized to your needs and goals. Our approach equips you to replicate impactful events year after year for long-term sustainability.
