Katie at Cascade Event planned an event for my business party and it turned out excellent! Katie was very professional yet relaxed at the same time. The event went seamlessly, everything from the major logistics to the minute details. Everyone loved the party (particularly the decor) which I attribute mostly to Katie and her planning. I will definitely use Cascade Event Design in the future.
