Every project starts with how your guests should feel when they walk in, then we design backward from there. That's the psychology behind our work, and it applies whether we're building a 500-person gala, a brand activation or a wedding weekend. You get one team for concept, design and production, so the idea you approve is the one your guests experience.

Tasks We Handle
Wonder what we take care of so you don’t have to?
Galas, activations and celebrations, planned and produced start to finish.
For companies, nonprofits and private hosts. We handle concept, budget, venue, vendors and run of show, or step in as creative directors alongside your internal team. From a 500-guest gala to a milestone birthday, Jacob and Alex lead it on site from load-in to final strike.
Corporate + Social Events
01.
Statement builds designed to be stepped into, photographed and shared.
Ceilings, entrances, backdrops, bars and themed spaces, designed and built for your event or added to one you're already producing. We work with fabricators and florists to turn a sketch into something your guests walk through and remember.
Custom Installations

Weddings
THATER MADE SERVICES
Every vendor, every decision and every design detail, for the wedding day or the whole weekend.
We build your vendor team, manage the budget and timeline, and design every element, from mood boards to renderings. Hosting guests for a few days? We plan the welcome party, rehearsal dinner and farewell brunch as one experience. Jacob and Alex lead it all, start to finish.
Full Planning + Design
01.
We coordinate your destination celebration from early planning through execution.
Planning beyond borders takes more than logistics. Between us, we’ve traveled to 55+ countries and trained in international hospitality abroad. We handle vendors, travel and local customs, and design multi-day celebrations that honor the place without feeling touristy. From Los Cabos to wherever you’re headed, your guests can focus on each other instead of figuring out where to go.

CHRISTINE · MOTHER OF THE BRIDE
“We worked directly with Jacob and Alex the whole time. No assistants, no interns, but the owners themselves.”
ELIZABETH · PHOTOGRAPHER
“Jacob and Alex are hands down the most talented event planner I've had the pleasure of working with!”
MARIANE · CLIENT SINCE 2021
“Jacob and Alex have been assisting our family events for the last five years, and to this day, they continue to deliver the BEST job ever.”
Every project follows the same six steps, whether it's a company gala or a wedding weekend. You always know what's happening, what's next and what we need from you, and you work with Jacob and Alex at every stage.
We start with a call about what you're planning, who it's for and what success looks like. We'll ask about your guests, your goals and the moments that matter most, then tell you honestly whether we're the right fit.
You'll receive a custom proposal with the scope, the team and the investment, built around your event rather than a package. If it feels right, we sign and get to work.
We find the right venue if you don't have one yet and assemble a vendor team we trust, from caterers and florists to fabricators and AV. Every partner is chosen for your event, not pulled from a default list.
A questionnaire and inspiration images become mood boards, then a full design deck with layouts, renderings and every detail specified. This is where the room takes shape and where custom installations are designed.
We build the timeline, run vendor coordination and manage the logistics of the final weeks, from deliveries and load-in to rehearsals and run of show. You'll know exactly how the day will run before it starts.
We're on site from load-in to strike, directing the team and handling whatever comes up so you can be fully present with your guests. Afterward, we wrap up every last detail.

Our Process
