Frequently Asked Questions... Answered!
Unless you are a party planning pro, you can count on having an endless amount of questions while planning an event. Should I hire a planner? How do I choose the right photographer? Should I have a seat for every guest? What’s a new fun dessert? How do I know what size linens I need? This is just the beginning. My company, Party Assurance, has been answering questions for our clients since 1994. What began as an extra hand to mothers of the bride, has turned into a full team of on-site, day-of coordinators that have your (the host’s) best interest at heart. Our services begin weeks prior and continues until our van is unloaded at your home at the end of the night! We regularly compliment full service event planners AND are hired by families planning milestone occasions. Our list of services is endless. All of your hard work, up until the big day, will be handed over to a professional who is managing all the moving parts just the way you would expect.
