Why I Became an Event Planner

Dear Friends,
When people ask me why I became an event planner, my answer always comes from the heart: I simply love making people’s day.
For as long as I can remember, I’ve had a passion for creating special moments. I’ve always been the one who notices the little details, who loves bringing people together, and who finds joy in watching others smile. Event planning became a natural extension of that—it allows me to pour my heart into creating experiences that people will never forget.
What I love most about this work isn’t just the flowers, the décor, or the timelines (though those are fun, too!). It’s the feeling of watching a bride’s face light up when she sees her vision come to life. It’s the relief in a parent’s eyes when they realize everything is taken care of. It’s being able to step in so families can truly relax and enjoy the celebration.
On event days, I get to stand behind the scenes, quietly making sure everything runs smoothly, and I wouldn’t trade that for the world. There’s something so special about watching laughter fill a room, hearing the music play, and knowing that in some small way, I helped create that joy.
My heart is happiest when I’m serving others, easing their worries, and giving them the gift of being fully present in their most important moments.
That’s the “why” behind Yes Ma’am Events. It’s more than a business to me—it’s a way to spread love, joy, and lasting memories, one celebration at a time.
With love,
Mattea
Owner, Yes Ma’am Events
