My friends finally convinced me to get business cards for my "company" (AKA - side gig) as well as a website. I'm still working on the website portion (what is a domain name and a hosting site and why do I have to pay when some places say I can get a website for free?!), but another good friend suggested a blog. Why not? So here it is ladies and gentleman!
You may be wondering who I am and what I do? My name is Elizabeth Joseph and professionally I am an HR Associate at an Ad agency in midtown Manhattan; however my passion is event planning. I.LOVE.IT! I've been doing events since before I can even remember. Need a party thrown? I can whip one up in under 30 min- from picking a date to finding a location to negotiating with vendors (and no- they will never give you their "best price" up front and no, you don't have to settle for less!). I've done birthdays for my family, corporate parties for company's I've worked, and now as I've gotten older (and my friends as well) I've started doing weddings and bridal showers.
What events am I working on currently? Well this (Sunday July 26th) I am throwing my friend and ex-coworker Caitlin "New York City Chic" bridal shower. We'll be getting manis and pedis at Dashing Diva nail salon (they are big on being clean and hygenic) and then we'll be heading over to brunch at a local restaurant. (I found a great one that has a gives unlimted champagne, mimosas, and Blood Marys with your entree. How great is that?!) I am also working on her September destination wedding (she got engaged over Valentine's Day weekend, so we are basically throwing this wedding together in 7 months!) It's been a crazy but good ride. Of course, I will posting pictures of all the events that I do.
Need help with your next event? Feel free to contact me! I do weddings, bridal showers, bachlorette parties, rehersal dinners, day of coordination, surprise birthday's, favor assembly and more!
Since my "company" is in it's infancy, I am VERY flexible in terms of your budget. NO EVENT IS TOO SMALL FOR ME! I actually like small events (they're easier to manage! LOL!) For me, it's all about adding to my portfolio (why didn't I start taking pictures of events I did a long time ago?!) Maybe one day this can be my full time profession, but we"ll see how this goes. Baby steps!
Until my next post -
Love you for reading!
XOXO
