You can even use our online event planning platform to browse our curated list of suppliers or explore our photo galleries to source inspiration for your party.

Tani Greenspan
Event and Operations Coordinator
After graduating from Washington and Lee University, Tani made her move to the D.C. area immediately after graduating. While working with a marketing tech company as a graphic designer and producer of corporate events, she traveled across the nation for work. This gave her a quick start launching her into the career of events. While she still is a master at technology, we love her sense of style and organization that keeps all of our logistics “in check”!
A native New Yorker, Tani moved to New Orleans in 2019 and we welcomed her as a member of Team Z soon after. Her eye for design and her fine attention to detail makes her an integral part of the planning process. From cocktail parties to conferences, she continues to wow us wearing the most stylish shoes and always with a smile on her face.
When she is not working, we will find her with a paint brush in her hand or curled up “nose-deep” in a great book with her corgi-basset, Doug by her side. Who doesn’t love a millennial that still prefers paper!
