about maria
I’ve always had a deep passion for organizing and event planning, alongside design.
I believe that every special event deserves to be pretty, aligned with who you are (shown in my favorite part of all, the little details), beautifully executed and fun!
Originally a Midwest girl, I made my way from Ann Arbor Michigan to the Napa Valley in 2006 and never looked back. I am a mother to a sweet and loving 12-year-old daughter, Lucia who loves to swim, dance, and draw. I myself love to get my creative juices flowing by crafting, and anything music. I love to travel, volunteer and of course, sample some of the best wines that Napa and Sonoma has to offer.
BYS Events + Design I started BYS Events + Design so I can help you to create a memorable, and custom once in a lifetime kind of event To make your wildest dreams come true and to be a steady source of guidance along your planning journey - I got your back!
You are not in this crazy, stressful, exciting time alone. By the time your event is over, I hope that you have not only had an awesome event, but that you feel as though you have a new friend. My team and I will do everything in our power to make sure your event is just how you dreamed it would be. I've got an amazing team by my side, and I am so grateful that I am able to do what makes me happy, which is make others happy.
I can't wait to meet you and get to know you so we can plan the best.day.ever.
