The candles looked beautiful on event day… but this is the part you usually don’t see. 👀

After the guests leave, the photos are taken, and the décor comes down, there’s still plenty happening behind the scenes.

Cleaning wax.
Wiping down holders.
Sorting inventory.
Checking for damage.
Getting every taper candle rental ready for the next event.

It may not be the glamorous part of event planning, but these little behind-the-scenes details are what allow us to show up prepared and create a beautiful, seamless experience for the next client.

Event day is only part of the work—and we wouldn’t have it any other way. 🤍

Follow along for more of what really goes into creating events behind the scenes.

Your team shouldn’t have to work the event they’re supposed to enjoy. 👏

Here are five things we can take off your team’s plate:

✨ Creating and managing the event timeline
✨ Communicating with vendors
✨ Overseeing setup and event details
✨ Managing guest flow and transitions
✨ Handling last-minute problems behind the scenes

You focus on your guests, your team, and the reason everyone gathered—we’ll keep the event moving.

Your wedding timeline isn’t only about keeping the wedding party on schedule—it also shapes the experience your guests have. 🤍

Here are three decisions that make a big difference:

✨ When the bar opens and what guests do while they wait
✨ How guests move from the ceremony into cocktail hour
✨ The timing of dinner, toasts, and dancing

These details help prevent long waits, confusion, and awkward gaps throughout the celebration.

A thoughtful timeline allows everything to flow naturally so you and your guests can relax, celebrate, and enjoy every part of the day!

Reviews like this will never stop meaning the world to me. 🤍

When you hire our team, you’re getting more than a timeline and checklist. You’re getting someone in your corner who will listen, advocate for your vision, keep everything organized, and make sure you can actually enjoy the celebration.

Hiring a corporate event planner isn’t simply an added expense—it can help your organization use its time and budget more intentionally.

I help clients compare options, identify unnecessary expenses, stay ahead of deadlines, and catch the small details that can become costly problems later.

And perhaps most importantly, your staff doesn’t have to put their regular responsibilities on hold to become an event-planning team.

Your time has value, too.

If your organization has an upcoming event, let’s talk about how Hillary Rae Events can make the process smoother, more strategic, and far less stressful.

Wedding vendors—have you found The Bridal Haven?

The wedding industry is built on relationships, collaboration, and community—and that’s exactly why we created The Bridal Haven.

The Bridal Haven is a space for wedding professionals to connect with other local vendors, build genuine relationships, share ideas, learn from one another, and grow together.

Because while we may each run our own businesses, we don’t have to do it alone.

Whether you’re a planner, photographer, florist, venue owner, caterer, DJ, beauty professional, or serve couples in another way, we would love to have you be part of the community we’re building.

Head over and follow to connect with us and stay updated on future vendor gatherings! 🤍

Nine years ago, I took a chance on an idea—and today, I get to celebrate nine years of Hillary Rae Events!

What started with a love for bringing people together has grown into more than I could have imagined: hundreds of events, incredible clients, trusted vendor friendships, a venue of our own, new businesses, big ideas, and so many memories along the way.

There have been long days, late nights, lessons learned, risks taken, and plenty of moments when I had to figure things out as I went. But I’m still here, still growing, and still genuinely excited about what comes next.

To every couple, company, family, vendor, team member, friend, and community supporter who has trusted me, encouraged me, or shared my name—thank you. You have helped make these nine years possible.

Here’s to nine years of celebrating people well—and to everything still ahead! 🥂

Six years ago today, I married my favorite person. 🤍

Looking back, one of my favorite things about our wedding isn't the flowers or the décor (although I still loved every detail). It's that we planned a day that felt like us.

We laughed, celebrated with the people who mattered most, and even climbed onto the roof of Bunny's—where Tyler and I first met—for some of our favorite wedding photos. Those moments have become memories we'll tell for the rest of our lives.

Six years later, we've built a life together that's bigger than we ever imagined. Two incredible kids, several businesses, countless weddings and events, and a community we're so grateful to be a part of. Through every season, I'm thankful I get to do life with my best friend.

As a wedding planner, anniversaries like today are a beautiful reminder of why I love what I do. It's never just about one day—it's about creating the beginning of a lifetime of memories.

Happy 6th Anniversary, Tyler. 🤍
