Amanda DeSisto Strine, Owner & Principal Planner

Hi! I'm Amanda! If you're thinking about planning an event that is intimate and beautiful - let's do it! Designing and coordinating weddings and gatherings that speak to all of your senses is my true passion. I will curate an event that is a true celebration you not only see, but feel.

MY INSPIRATION

I started event planning professionally over 16 years ago, but my love for a good party started long before then. I grew up in an Italian home, where any occasion was an excuse to get together and create memories. Food, music and celebration have been deeply rooted inside of me. Whether you are planning a wedding, a personal event or a corporate event, I will coordinate every detail to perfectly reflect you and those you choose to surround you.

FUN FACTS ABOUT ME

I got my start working in events by booking bands for festivals. Since then, I have worked on all sides of event planning, dreaming up cool things for awesome clients from South Carolina to Los Angeles.

I used to be a dancer. I spent my summers training in Los Angeles, have competed all over the country, and have choreographed for companies throughout the southeast. Now, I choreograph weddings & gatherings! Each event is a dance to me.

I have two sons (ages 3 & 8), a Boston Terrier puppy named Louis (named after Louis Prima), and have been married to my amazing husband for 8 years.

My favorite foods are homemade spaghetti & pizza, or a yummy charcuterie board and good bottle of wine.

My dream is to renovate an RV and travel the country with my family.
