Life is short. Laugh. Celebrate. Enjoy!
Vibrant Events had been an idea, a dream, a goal for a long time. But on my wedding day, it truly came into being. After a year of managing every detail of my own upcoming marriage and the party to follow, on top of working a full time job, I knew it was time to take the leap. So I did. And I couldn't be more thrilled to be able to do what I love for a living.
I've always been a planner, from the time I was a little girl. I've always had an agenda, and I've always stuck to it. When I was in college, my agenda was to save the world, by whatever means necessary. I had grown up with conservationist parents who had ingrained in every fiber of my being that the natural world was something to be respected and protected. When I first visited Jackson Hole, I knew that this would be the place for me to land, a place where I could save the natural world I loved while being able to celebrate it every day.

So I packed everything I owned, loaded up my big black dog, and never looked back. I kayaked and backpacked, skied and hiked. I began to learn the art of gardening in a place where summer is short and nights are cold. I volunteered with local conservation organizations, but found that non-profit work had a hard time fitting into the organized and planned out way that I lived. I celebrated the life I was making for myself.
And I waited tables and tended bar at hotel restaurants. This is where it all started to come together. In conversing with my customers, I found a new means of educating people about conservation efforts in the Jackson Hole valley. And it worked. People listened to me, and learned from me. As the years went by, I moved into management, and then into special events. I loved every minute of it. Designing a wedding or family vacation that would be remembered for a lifetime proved to be the perfect marriage of creativity and structure, while showcasing the truly amazing and wild place that I had chosen to make my home. I had finally found my own way to save the world.
After several years of planning weddings, vacations and retreats for hotel clients, I was feeling trapped. As a representative of an establishment, I was extremely limited and often unable to provide all the options available for the clients I was working with. I had established fantastic relationships with local companies and vendors, and found that the idea of green events fit hand in hand with the Jackson Hole destination.

So I quit my job and here I am. My concept with this company is to capture the vibrant moments and ideas in life, creatively turning them into fabulous experiences. I'm committed to working side by side with my clients to create not just an event, but a lasting memory. Vibrant Events is the essence of the service that I always wanted to provide, and the message that I always wanted to communicate:
