Women’s History Month: Female Event & Planning Experts Panel Discussion & Breakfast – Houston
Most event planning panels showcase the Instagram-perfect moments – the flawless decor, the seamless execution, the standing ovations. We lift the curtain with Female Event & Planning Experts.
We’re bringing together female event experts who’ve actually lived it. They know the 3am load-ins when vendors ghost. Also, they’ve dealt with clients who expect miracles on shoestring budgets, the physical toll of carrying every piece of furniture yourself, and the invisible labor that makes “effortless” events happen.
This Women’s History Month, join us for breakfast and a conversation that cuts through the highlight reel. Our panelists aren’t here to share pretty mood boards. Instead, they’re here to talk about what it’s really like to be a woman in events. That means managing difficult clients while being labeled “difficult” yourself, the moments you’ve absorbed someone else’s chaos to keep a timeline intact, and how you’ve built businesses while doing the unglamorous work nobody sees.
Expect honesty about navigating male-dominated vendor relationships, the financial reality of net-30 payment terms when your bills are due, and the specific strategies these women use to create boundaries. This is because “passion” shouldn’t mean working for free. They’ll share the vendors who actually show up, the contracts that protected them, the pricing mistakes they learned from, and the client red flags they now refuse to ignore.
Come ready for real talk about sweeping sidewalks at dawn, assembling chairs for 7am meetings, and still showing up with a smile that’s genuine – not forced. Leave with actionable insights from women who have done the behind-the-scenes work. Additionally, learn from Female Event & Planning Experts who are revolutionizing how we gather, celebrate, and share space.
Complimentary breakfast provided. Because event planners spend their lives feeding everyone else, and it’s time someone fed you first.
