A foundation for really beautiful gatherings and community.

 

“We wanted to create a space that offered an experience for your guests. We wanted it to be inviting, comfortable, beautiful, and modern. Having worked as professional wedding and event planners for over 8 years each, we were able to determine the needs of our future clients in the planning process.”

I get to live my dream everyday! How special is that? I love Event & Wedding planning and having the opportunity to be creative on a daily basis brings me true joy. 

After working in the Event Planning industry part time for almost 5 years, I decided to make it my full time passion in 2016. Pretty in the Pines Events was born in 2018 & since launching, I’ve had the opportunity to work with so many amazing couples to create a day that reflects their style, vision and love for one another. 

Watching a wedding or event come together and seeing the reactions from my clients and their guests is the most rewarding feeling. I am so thankful for the relationships that I develop with my clients & the role I get to play in one of their most significant life moments!

When I'm not working, I love spending time with my beautiful family which is made up of my partner Steve and our girls Quinn & Willow. I love going home to Edmonton, Alberta to visit friends and family and have a passion for hot holidays so winter is when I like to take time away. My favourite vacation spot is anywhere I can lay on the beach and sip fancy cocktails or rosè. 

Let’s create beauty together!

Being creative, but also weirdly organized was always part of my life growing up; how lucky am I to have been able to create a business that encompasses both of these very different traits?

Method Events offers a pretty big range of both products and services including event planning and design (with a major focus on weddings), balloon installations, and party supplies. I started this business in 2014 (back then it was Love and Lace Event Design) and have had a really organic growth and transformation in my style and offerings. I love florals, texture and acts of service is my love language.

I cherish cultivating relationships with both clients and the amazing list of creatives that Saskatoon has to offer. I believe in collaboration and truly working together as a team to seamlessly curate a detail-focused event or celebration. I don’t believe there is one person who can truly “do it all”.

I share my home (and full life) with my husband Scott and sweet daughter Olivia, just outside the city of Saskatoon, Saskatchewan.

I love to host parties and gatherings in my home and now can’t wait to be hosting groups and celebrations of all types at Brick Loft Event Co!
