My Story
Meet Josie
After working as an Wedding and Events Coordinator for several area venues, for over a decade, and seeing the need for couples to have a knowledgeable professional on their team, I developed a passion for making sure my clients could enjoy their celebration without stressing about all of the details and itinerary.
I have also extensive experience with corporate, government, and non-profit events. I've been planning and coordinating events professionally since 2013, forming a network with some of the best professionals and event vendors in the Quad Cities. In addition to event planning and coordination, I have a strong background in hospitality, management, client relations, and food and beverage planning. I love collaborating with individuals and couples to bring their vision to life. My passion is helping others to be truly immersed in their special event and not have to worry about all of the inner workings that make it possible.
I have been so lucky to work with couples all across the globe who have come back Iowa and Illinois to celebrate. I'm also thrilled to call the beautiful Figge Art Museum my home location for weddings and events.
Let's get up close and personal!
My favorite things in the world are laughter, hot tea, my children, the Rocky Mountains and amazing food.
I married my husband in 2020 (yes, despite being in the middle of a pandemic). We had a beautiful elopement style ceremony in Rocky Mountain National Park, accompanied by our parents and daughters. My husband and I are both natives to the Quad Cities and reside in Moline, IL. We have two daughters that we adore and who keep us young. Both of our girls are the motivation I needed to finally turn my passion into action and bring my services and hospitality knowledge to others.
I hope as they grow into young women they are inspired to follow their dreams and do what makes them truly happy.
Outside of planning events and spending time with my family, I love traveling, being outdoors and being involved in the community.
I'm also a big believer in Service Above Self, Women Empowering Women, and Community Over Competition.
