Hi K., my company Professional Events is a Corporate Event Planning business. Could you tell me what exactly you are looking for? I would love to help you if I can.

Hi K.!

I am curious to what type of planning you are needing. I am a small business owner that plans events off all sizes, and a very active mom who constantly plans and organizes all fundraising events and activities for my kids school. From what I understand, I am really good at it :o)

I'm not sure where you are, but if you let me know what you're looking for, I am certain that I can help you.

If your event is coming up during the Christmas Season, I have Santa, Mrs. Clause and elves available for picture taking, cookie decorating, arts and crafts, face painting and balloon twisting.

I highly recommend Maxine Goulding owner of California Special Occasions. She handles events of all sizes and locations (including international) and is very good at it. You can reach her at ###-###-#### or ____@____.com website is: www.CASpecialOccasions.com

Paula is great. She works really well and is very creative. I have helped her out before and I would do it again, I enjoy working with her.

Also, try looking under event planner or party planner.

Hi K., what type of fundraiser are you looking for? I am not an expert, but have had alot of experience and some ideas. I used to do all the fundraising for my son's basketball teams. You can email me at ____@____.com
Good Luck

The only fundraiser planner I have worked with has since resigned from the position but I know there was someone else to take her position. We found her through Shasta Regional Community Foundation. I'm sure they can put you in contact with the event planner they are working with.

What sort of event are you planning. I've done weddings before and I also have some other connections.

Hi K.,
That is just what my daughter does. She is a single, stay at home mom and has managed to make a living for herself and her children by planning events and managing fund raising programs. She has a proven successful track record and most often exceeds the desired funds needed for the fund-raisers that she has planned. Her event planning experience ranges from very large corporate events to very small private gatherings. She has worked with some well known non-profit groups and often times donates her time for causes that she cares about. She volunteers her services for children's events all the time.

I can guarantee you that you won't find a better service than hers. But of course I am her mother talking here!! Do yourself a favor and give her a call. She lives in Lincoln. She can be reached at:

You can tell her that her mother sent you. Good luck to you and your event.

Melinda is great.She's an event planner by trade.

In the spring of 2006, I attended a play group through the John Muir Woman's Health Center. One of the other new moms was a woman named Katy Grant, who is an event planner. I have not used her professional services, but I was impressed with Katy on a personal/mom level. Her business is Event Alchemy and her number is ###-###-####. Good Luck - C.

Hi, K.,

Do yourself a favor and call Kent Nichols. She is a mom, too, is very creative and able to work within your budget, using your ideas and contributing so many more of her own. She can plan the whole thing, or guide you through the process. She has experience as a corporate event planner and as a small home party planner. She is very warm and approachable, as well as efficient and competent. ###-###-####. Let me know what you think after you talk to her !

Good luck, D. Cotner, DDS

I would recommend Marilyn Kermit here in Sacramento. She is a stay at home mom that plans fundraisers for nonprofits as her source of income. She has planned our large fundraiser for a couple of years now and we are very happy with her. You can reach her at ____@____.com

There are quite a few listings in here for event planners! :) Look @ the directory of mom owned businesses! I haven't used any of them, since I do all my parties (as well as friends'), but I know I've seen a few in here. Good Luck! :)
