MEET VANESSA & CO

VANESSA GROTH
owner, lead planner & floral designer
I've been planning and designing events for as long as I can remember. I've always loved combining my creative side with my organized side and using them together to create a beautiful yet seamless event. So when I got engaged to my husband, I was over the moon to start planning our wedding. Seriously, people thought I was crazy until our wedding turned out to be so incredibly beautiful and went off without a hitch. To this day, I wish I could go back and relive my wedding day! And that's what inspired me to start Events by Vanessa. I want to design memories that people want to relive over and over again. I want to prove to people that planning a wedding doesn't have to be so daunting and stressful. This is such an exciting season in your life, and I want to help you enjoy every second of it!

PIPER
mascot & moral support
Meet our rescue dog Piper! When the three of us aren't just chilling on the couch or going for walks, we are usually planning or hosting some kind of party for our friends and family. Tom and I love to host and celebrate, and we take every chance we get to come up with a theme and go all out on decorations, food, and drinks. (Don't worry Piper loves it because she thinks every party we throw is for her!) Our passion for hospitality has been such a blessing in creating Events by Vanessa, and we would love to have the opportunity to throw you the wedding or event of your dreams!
