Meet Your Event Strategist

Hey, I’m really glad you’re here! I'm Desiree, founder of The Planning House LLC.

Behind every smooth, unforgettable event is something most people never see — a clear system that keeps everything organized, moving, and under control.

That’s where I come in! My career in events began over a decade ago as a Special Events Coordinator for one of the largest churches in America. What started as a passion quickly became a calling. I spent years coordinating large-scale productions, managing vendor relationships, building timelines, and ensuring that every event felt personal and intentional.

From there, I was recruited by a Fortune 500 company to serve as their Community Engagement Manager, where I led the planning of nonprofit events, managed corporate social responsibility initiatives, and connected major corporations with nonprofits across the region.

In January 2026, I founded The Planning House LLC which is the culmination of everything I've built, learned, and love. My goal is simple: to bring the same level of excellence I've delivered for Fortune 500 companies, major productions, and national organizations to every single client who trusts us with their event.

When I'm not planning events, I'm a proud new mom which means I understand better than ever just how precious your time, energy, and special moments truly are!
