Owner & Lead Planner

Bridget McCormack

Bridget often describes her approach to event planning as her dharma- a Sanskrit word that refers to one’s life purpose, or the work you’re meant to do in service of others. For her, that purpose is bringing people together to celebrate life’s most meaningful moments and creating experiences where guests feel seen and connected.

As the oldest of five in a big Irish family, Bridget grew up in a home where gathering mattered. Holidays meant setting extra places at the table, and every milestone, from birthdays to graduations, was always a reason to celebrate. Her upbringing influenced her love for bringing people together and her deep belief that a well-planned event can make people feel seen, loved, and connected.

After planning her own wedding in 2023 and spending the past couple years working in the wedding industry, Bridget brings both firsthand perspective and professional experience to every celebration. Backed by over 8 years of experience in project management, she approaches each event with structure, clarity, and calm - ensuring the planning process feels seamless, intentional, and supportive from start to finish.

When she’s not busy planning, you can find Bridget spending time with her husband and their rescue dog, Sadie, or out on a run training for her next race!
