DISTINCTIVE SERVICE and STANDOUT CELEBRATIONS

We never take for granted that we’re often crafting one of the biggest days of your life. Our way of working is distinctly human - we value relationships first and let the rest follow.

Our team of three brings diverse knowledge, experience, and perspective to our work in a way that is unique in the events industry. This approach means none of us is ever going it alone…and you won’t be either.

LAUREN BLISS JONES

Lauren is Bliss Events Collectives owner and creative director, channeling her belief in the power of hosting to tell the stories of her clients through thoughtful and design-forward moments. 

She lives for the controlled chaos of events days (lovingly known to her team and clients as The Chaos Captain) and carries a quiet confidence that commands the room. You can often find her using her afternoon latte as a pointer or channeling energy from a pair of no-to-be-missed shoes.

When she’s not bridging the gap between dreams and possibilities, she’s having tea time and dance parties with her daughter, or sipping a bold red with her husband at a wine bar around town.

RACHEL BARSAMIAN

Rachel is the definition of hostess with the mostest. After just a few minutes with her, clients have not only found their ideal planner, but also a kind, wise (and stylish!) confidant. 

Rachel was a professional dancer before finding her way in the wedding industry so she's no stranger to running the show. With experience in floral design, venue management, and fundraising, you're unlikely to find someone with Rachel's depth of experience in producing events. She meets each event with unmatched thoughtfulness, the dare to dream, and sound perspective that keeps her clients central to it all.

ALEXANDRIA DENNY

Alex's superpower is never having met a stranger. Her warmth is matched only by her love for details and appreciation of the perfect linen - and both are traits her clients love about working with her.

Originally from Alabama, Alex's southern charm and infectious personality lights up rooms and helps clients put at ease. Her background in non-profit events and project management has given her an appreciation for logistics and a love for seeing the many pieces come together to create something beautiful.

“LAUREN is a JOY TO WORK WITH! SHE is THOUGHTFUL, NOT ONLY in the KIND WAY, but ALSO IN THINKING AHEAD and SEEING WHAT IS TO BE DONE NEXT or NEEDS ATTENTION. YOU WANT THAT in a PLANNER!”

-Sarah Chiffriller, Petals & Twigs
