I have hired Anika to plan several company parties over the years. Anika always came up with new and fresh theme ideas for the parties.
The parties were organized down to the finest details.
She kept me informed all through the planning process had helped me come in at or under budget.
I highly recommend Anika for any type of Event Planning.

As a Bride I was pulled in a thousand and one directions. So much so that I forgot to make sure Anika had our music playlist. However, Anika had the songs memorized from previous discussions and helped the night run smoothly.
