ill S. Matthews is a born event planner— it’s in his blood. RSVP with Will: Event Planning has found its niche within the industry—they focus solely on corporate events— banquets, golf tournaments, conferences, and such. In his own words, Will reveals his core philosophy, “I think finding a niche and staying in my lane has allowed me to be successful in my line of work.” And his growing list of ecstatic clients couldn’t agree more!

As a child he watched his mother put on conferences and conventions, marveling at the way she and her team pulled off incredible events while making it seem effortless. It was then that roots of entrepreneurship began to grow in the Houston native. Fast forward to January 2008 when the doors of RSVP with Will: Event Planning, LLC opened and a new dynasty of uber successful event planning was born. Long before he ever received his Bachelor of Arts in Business Administration and his Master of Public Administration in Nonprofit Management, Will was gaining experience putting on his own events. While in college he planned parties for fraternities, sororities, and a variety of campus events. As a business owner, he combines his two passions—business and helping people create memorable experiences; his creative genius and his excellent work ethic to deliver breathtaking events to his always very satisfied clients. His testimonials from such clients as Neiman Marcus and other prestigious corporations, glow with appreciation and praise for Will, his team and the magic they weave to create stunning events.

“First, I have a whole new definition for what a ‘world class event’ really is. The difference between our event and every other I have ever experienced is summarized in one word: magic. There was magic in the air. The magic that you brought to the table came in the form of: collective experience in your company, the unrelenting passion in each one of your team members, and the honesty and integrity you individually brought to the table. All of which allowed us to create something truly meaningful.” SAMANTHA DONALDSON

“I want to thank the RSVP team for making our event such a tremendous success. I knew in my heart (and through the relentless stalking of my team) that the event would be flawless and it was.” DUSTIN ERWINS

“Saturday night was absolutely a dream come true. You all did such an amazing job and I am so grateful. I truly appreciate all the time, effort, and creative magic you put into every element of the event, from the extraordinary centerpiece to the beautiful dessert bar, and fabulous decorative elements. AND, you did it all while remaining so incredibly professional, patient, and kind. I cannot wait to work with you again!!” MICHELLE CALLIS “We just want to thank you and everyone else in your organization again for all of your hard work, professionalism and graciousness in making the events at Neiman Marcus so successful. It was a pleasure working with all of you, and we know that the store and the audience also were very impressed and appreciative…we look forward to hearing from you soon and working together again. Many, many thanks.” MARK VINCENT
