This past summer we had 12 amazing women join The Good Party team as our 2022 Event Assistants and we want to give them a big shout out and say “THANK YOU!” These ladies help our Lead Planners on wedding weekends as well at other events throughout the year. On wedding days they do so many things we created a list – see below! These ladies work hard, bring so much fun and energy to our team and we simply refuse to imagine life and work without them!
Meet the gals below and find out a bit more about their role on the team!

Did you know?
We are a team of women who make👏things👏happen👏and our assistants are no exception! Most of us Lead Planners started as day of assistants for The Good Party and worked our way into new roles over the years. We have all learned so much along the way and are always excited to share our event knowledge with our ever growing team! Speaking of, a few of our 2022 assistants have moved into planner roles for this coming season and we are excited to introduce them properly in the coming weeks – keep your eyes on the blog to find out more about them!
Thank you again to our 2022 team! It was our busiest summer ever and we are super grateful that you were all with us to help make it happen.
