COMPLETE EVENT PRODUCTION is for clients who want help from the start, a professional to walk hand-in-hand with them to plan and design the event of their dreams. We provide our complete set of planning tools and checklists, full event design and assistance with all of your vendors.
OUR ULTIMATE EVENT EXPERIENCE
ULTIMATE EVENT EXPERIENCE is for couples who want it all! Additional services here include the planning of up to two satellite events (perfect for cultural or religious ceremonies, multi-event weekends or PNW destination events, as well as services to assemble any design items for you.
OUR PROCESS
“Saying thank you seems wholly inadequate given the amount of time, guidance, inspiration, coordination, and gentle pushing you have provided through the planning for this event. We truly have enjoyed every step of this process of working with you. The only regrettable part is that the event will come to an end. We appreciate you greatly!”

FAQs
-
Our Final Planning services are the closest to event day services, but beefed up to provide the level of service that Simply Bash is known for. This means we can start as soon as you book, you can utilize your meetings / time however you would like and we know as much as possible about your big day! It also allows us to assist you in putting together a killer team from the get-go, if that’s what you need.
-
Anything and everything! We have done Bar and Bat Mitzvahs, Milestone Birthdays and Anniversaries, Proposals, Celebrations of Life, Baby Showers, Summer Parties, Back-to-School Parties, Slumber Parties (the reasons to party are endless!), as well as Non-Profit Events.
-
We typically start booking dates one year in advance, give or take a little. While we are planners, we do believe in such a thing as having too much time to plan (this can lead to decision fatigue and changed minds!). The sweet spot for us is between 6-12 months. Why such a range? Because everybody is different and we recognize that in these times there is often a need for a planner as soon as clients start planning while some don’t discover the need until a few months of going it alone.
-
We do not have a budget minimum, and still work with a wide range of budgets! We will assist you in discussing during our initial consultation if our services are a good fit both style and price-wise.
-
We do! While we have planned events in multiple states and countries, these days our signature services and expertise mainly keep us in the Pacific Northwest and Washington state. Although exceptions can be made with a good argument!
-
We are big believers in quality over quantity, and strive to offer the best possible service to every single one of our clients, no matter what services they have hired us for. We also believe in finding your “just right” match in vendors, so we take those matches seriously while planning out our year! With all of that said, we only book up to 15 events per year, and never more than one event in a week (unless those multiple events belong to one client!).

At the end of the day, my bottom line is your happiness. There is no other vendor that has *just* the client at stake… For instance, the venue has the building/property, the caterer has the food and the musicians have their gear and instruments. YOU are MY sole focus! Your planner can take care of the million details that you never even thought of. My job is also to create a level of trust so that you can “let go” of everything you have planned months for and relax and enjoy your event day, as well as the unique experience of time with all of your family and loved ones! Let your vendors do what their job is, and that is to be the best and focused at taking amazing photos or pulling off a plated meal for 200 or entertaining a packed dance floor. I work hand-in-hand with an experienced team of people to make sure you walk away thinking…that was the BEST celebration ever!
