RSVP Event Design Star Awards Winner

Over a week ago, Crystal Anderson, Director of Weddings and myself, Tammy Forrester, Director of Corporate Events headed to Toronto, ON to participate in the Canadian Special Events Conference and Trade Show as an award nominee for a wedding planned by Crystal Anderson in July 2010. It was exciting to think we were in the presence of companies from across Canada all specializing in event planning, design and décor work. As expected, the creative work implemented by so many companies in Canada was inspiring to see.


At the Awards Gala, there were over 30 different categories of event excellence being awarded that night with over 125 firms recognized. Firms from British Columbia to Nova Scotia to the Northwest Territories, all offering a variety of services and décor products to enhance their clients’ event needs. How thrilling – to be seated amongst some of Canada’s top event planning companies and professionals.

The evening was spectacular, the entertainment was wonderful and the night, for us, was unforgettable. After 6+ years in the industry of event planning, design and décor, RSVP Event Design walked away with their first award, ever! The most thrilling part for me was that we were in the presence of other professionals that all understand the heart and soul that we all put into each event we plan, each time. From smaller dinner parties to elaborate corporate events to extravagant weddings, we put ourselves into our clients’ shoes and work on creating events that will truly exceed their expectations. Not always do we hit the mark, but the heart that goes into trying to make each clients’ event truly special is always real!

I love what I do and I love why I do it! As the founder of the company, this magical night reminded me why RSVP Event Design exists and why we continue to help our clients dream beyond their greatest expectations and why we make those dreams reality!
