The Steady Hand Behind Extraordinary Events

Hey, I’m Bri — founder and lead strategist behind BG Events & Designs. I’ve spent years planning, directing, and executing events where precision, leadership, and calm decision-making matter. Logistics, timelines, workflows, and team flow are my playground — turning complexity into seamless execution is what I do best.

While I oversee every project, BG Events & Designs is supported by a reliable network of experienced event professionals who know how to step in, collaborate, and execute with precision. Each team is curated to fit the scope, scale, and spirit of the event.

I’m a Minnesota woman raising two sassy, spectacular kids with my husband, who keeps me laughing, grounded, and occasionally reminds me to drink water. Ripley the pup still believes she runs the house — though the kids would argue otherwise.

My happy things include tacos, ice cream, tequila, decaf coffee, and color-coded spreadsheets. I decorate for holidays like it’s a competitive sport, dabble in Great British Bake Off–style baking (in my mind, I’m a Star Baker), and maintain an HGTV-level renovation wish list that’s… aspirational at best.

I’m deeply passionate about empowering women and uplifting girls and young women. Purpose fuels my work. Beauty and efficiency shape it. And bringing calm, clarity, and a touch of sparkle to every event? That’s where I thrive.

If you’re craving luxury execution with personality, intention, and zero stress — welcome in.

LET'S TALK DETAILS

A Philosophy of Empowerment

I believe in supporting the women who shape this industry, the designers, planners, leaders and teams bringing powerful ideas to life.

When you have the right operational partner, your vision becomes easier to execute, your work becomes more expansive, and your events become more impactful.

My Approach:

  • I lead with clarity, anticipate needs, and build structure that allows creativity to thrive.

  • Events are built by people, not just spreadsheets, which is why I prioritize relationships, clear communication and collaboration.

  • The goal is always the same: an event that feels seamless, intentional, and beautifully managed from start to finish.

Ready to Get Started?

Your event deserves clarity, composure, and high-level expertise at every stage. If an approach rooted in operational structure and creative sensitivity feels aligned, I’d love to start the conversation.
