We're a small team of dedicated event professionals who believe that the best celebrations are built on honesty, intention, and a lot of hard-won experience.
Before Milestone, I worked for a large events firm where weddings and corporate dinners were treated like assembly line items. Clients got a binder, a timeline, and someone who showed up day-of having barely learned their names. I left to build something different.
I founded Milestone Event Co. in 2017 with a simple belief: every event deserves the same care, regardless of size or budget tier. We cap the number of weddings we take each year so that no client ever feels like a number. We answer our phones. We respond to emails the same day. We know your grandmother's name and which caterer makes your partner nervous.
Over the past eight years, we've grown from just me and a notebook to a team of three full-time planners, a styling partner, and a network of vendors we genuinely trust. The philosophy hasn't changed: listen first, design second, and execute with everything we have.
Claire Ashworth, Founder & Lead Planner
Every Milestone planner brings a distinct specialization. We pair clients with the team member who's the best fit for their event type and planning style.
Eight years in the industry with a specialty in full-service weddings and large-scale social events. Claire has a particular gift for translating vague aesthetic instincts into fully realized concepts.
Dominique spent five years in experiential marketing before joining Milestone. She leads all corporate and brand activations, bringing a strategic lens to every event brief.
Petra's background in interior styling gives her an eye for detail that elevates every gathering she plans. She specializes in milestone celebrations and intimate social events.
We accept a limited number of weddings each year so we can give every couple our full attention. You will never feel like you're competing for our time.
We're with you from the first venue tour to the last vendor invoice. "Day-of coordination" sounds appealing until you realize the stress that came before it.
We've worked with our preferred vendors dozens of times. They know our standards. They respect our timelines. That trust translates directly to your event.
We'll tell you what your vision realistically costs. No surprises at invoice time. We help you allocate well so the money goes where it matters most.
We respond to every email and call within 24 hours, always. During peak planning phases, often within the hour. You'll never be left wondering where things stand.
You'll have a dedicated planner from start to finish. No hand-offs, no re-explaining. Your planner knows your event as well as you do by the time the day arrives.
