Event planning isn't just my job—it’s my lifestyle. My core memory is planning a secret anniversary party for my parents at nine years old using a rotary phone and a phone book. Fast forward through a lifetime of coordinating massive youth conventions, styling clients, and being the go-to planner for every major milestone in my circle, and here we are.
I eventually followed my heart from California to my absolute happy place: Maui. Now, I get to use my background in hospitality, styling, and logistics to help modern couples create their own unforgettable moments on the island.
I’m here to handle the heavy lifting, the vendor spreadsheets, and the day-of timeline so you can actually enjoy your engagement. Think of me as your organized, design-obsessed partner in crime, ready to bring your exact vision to life.
The Short Story
I planned my own Maui wedding back when "social media" meant talking to local vendors out of the Yellow Pages. They were so blown away by my Type-A organization that they told me I needed to do this for a living. Fast forward nearly 30 years and a couple of name evolutions later, and Celebrations by Tori is still doing what I love most: crafting deeply personal, stress-free island celebrations.
How I Work
Modern couples don’t want cookie-cutter weddings, and I don't design them. My approach balances obsessive, meticulous organization with a remarkably calm, relaxed vibe. I’m here to handle the logistics, advocate for your budget with complete transparency, and let you actually enjoy being engaged.
The Track Record
Over the last three decades, my work has been featured across top television networks and leading wedding style platforms. But my favorite flex? The fact that I'm still close friends with couples whose weddings I planned years ago. Whether you want a high-editorial weekend experience or an intimate beachside celebration, I’m here to keep the process joyful, organized, and uniquely yours.
