I partnered with Ris Events & Party Queen V of Balloon Empowerment Chi to curate a St Paddy Themed balloon backdrop for my charcuterie workshop. They were both great to work with and did a phenomenal job. Quality work, on time, and so kind!

I’ve worked with Ris Events multiple times, and each time the experience is better and better. Working with Marisa through the concept phase was really exciting because she brought a lot of great ideas to the table. She is extremely creative. All I had to tell her was my hope and vision for the event and she made it come to life. Exceeded all my expectations. If you want quality, hire her!

Marisa & Noelani truly helped bring all my wedding dreams to life. Although I enjoyed planning my wedding, I quickly realized I wouldn’t be able to execute any of the little details on my big day.

As I was planning my wedding, Marisa truly partnered with my husband & I to understand our wants, needs, & anything in between to help make our big day go as smooth as possible.

With Marisa as my Day of Coordinator, I didn’t have to worry about a single thing on my wedding day! Ris Events took care of the day’s timeline, set up & breakdown, partnering with all of our vendors, & any little detail you can possibly think of!

BRIDES - You can’t do it all alone! Hire Marisa as your Day of Coordinator, YOU NEED HER!

Words can hardly express the admiration I have for the incredible work of Marisa and her event planning business. What strikes me most is not just the breathtaking events she orchestrates, but the sheer dedication and love she pours into every aspect of her work.

As a mother juggling the beautiful responsibilities of Mom, Wife and Business Boss 😊 Marisa epitomizes the essence of strength, resilience, and passion. Despite the whirlwind of daily life, she has crafted a business that stands as a testament to her extraordinary talent and unwavering commitment.

What sets Marisa apart is not only her organizational skills and creative flair but also her ability to truly connect with her clients. Collaborating with a diverse range of individuals, from fellow entrepreneurs to offering a work apprenticeship program to aspiring dreamers and now Work Webinars and so much more!!

Marisa’s most remarkable qualities is her reliability and accountability. Clients can trust her implicitly to execute flawlessly, ensuring every detail is attended to with precision and care. But beyond that, she brings a sense of joy and ease to the planning process, making it not just an event, but an unforgettable experience.

In every event she curates, Marisa has an extraordinary gift for capturing the true essence of her clients' visions. Whether it's an intimate gathering or a grand celebration, she weaves together every element seamlessly, creating moments that linger in the hearts and memories of all who attend.

To sum it up, Marisa is not just an event planner; she is a beacon of inspiration and a shining example of what it means to pursue one's passion with unwavering dedication and love. It's an honor to witness her work and I have no doubt that her business will continue to soar to even greater heights. God bless you Marisa!!!♥️

Ris Events is AMAZING! I found Marisa on instagram and from our first consultation, I knew working with her for our baby shower would be a breeze. She was professional, understood my vision and completely surpassed it, as well as helped us cut costs in certain places to meet our budget.

Ris Events is a such a gem company. All of my guests had a fantastic time and thought she was the greatest! I’m still getting messages! If I need a planner in the future, I’ll have Ris Events on speed dial. There is literally no other option.

From consultation, prep, and day-of details, Marisa and her team were top tier. I had no stress, worry or question about what we’d walk into on baby shower day—and that feeling is priceless.

Thanks again, Ris Events for allowing us to celebrate the upcoming birth of our firstborn so beautifully.

Marisa is an amazing wedding planner. Saying she made the entire wedding planning process a breeze is an understatement!! She diligently worked with us for a year and brought our exact vision to life and definitely went above and beyond! I cannot wait to use her services again for future events and don’t hesitate to recommend her to all friends and family.

I can’t say enough GREAT things about RisEvents! Ris took a few Pinterest pics and some random thoughts and turned it into EXACTLY what my daughter wanted for her wedding decor. She is a delight to work with, makes everything feel easy breezy and when we goofed up (long story)-she went straight into problem solving mode and helped us out of a jam. When you have an important day, like your daughter’s wedding, you want everything to be perfect…she understands that and delivers! You will not be disappointed when seeking her services.

I booked Ris Events because I had seen her work in the past and needed it to be apart of my wedding day! She was so easy to work and brought my vision to life and more. No detail went unnoticed! There were little things that we didn’t even chat about but she saw that it needed more and she delivered. Her little touches were all over both of our wedding venues! Ris does not say no but she tried her best to find a solution! She listened to all ideas and ran with it! I cannot thank her enough for being a part of my special day and look forward to using her event specialty in the future!
