There's something special about bringing people together to celebrate life's most meaningful moments. Whether it's a wedding, birthday, shower, corporate gathering, or another milestone worth celebrating, the details matter-and so does the experience.
Welcome to Cortes Event Co., a Christian-owned event company serving the Alabama Gulf Coast and beyond. We're here to help turn your vision into a beautiful, well-organized celebration while taking some of the stress and pressure of your shoulders.
A Little About Us
My journey in the wedding and event industry began in 2011 as a beginner wedding photographer. After moving to South Alabama in 2013, I took a short break before realizing that my passion went beyond simply capturing beautiful moments-I wanted to help create them.
In 2014, I began transitioning into wedding planning and coordination and eventually started my own business. Over the years, I had to opportunity to work alongside some of the best event professionals in the business, gaining experience and learning what truly goes on behind the scenes of a successful celebration.
After stepping away from the industry for a season, life brought me back to where my heart had always been. That season gave me time to reflect, grow, and ultimately reimagine what I wanted my business to become.
And that's how Cortes Event Co. was born.
More Than Just Event Services
Cortes Event Co. brings together the things I love most about the event industry-planning, coordination, beautiful design, florals, and creating memorable experiences.
Our services include:
Event Coordination - from day-of coordination to full-service planning
Event Decorating & Design - bringing your vision together through thoughtful details
Event Rentals - tables, linens, decor, and more
Faux Floral Designs - beautiful floral arrangements without the worry of wilting flowers
Whether you have every detail planned or you're staring at a blank Pinterest board wondering where to begin, we're here to meet you where you are.
Your Celebration Should Feel Like You
We believe that your event should reflect your personality, your story, and the people you're celebrating with. My job isn't to create my perfect event-it's to listen to your ideas, help bring them together, offer insight when needed, and make sure the finished celebration feels authentically yours.
And while beautiful details are important, I believe the best events are the ones where the people being celebrated aren't too busy and overwhelmed about all the little details and can actually enjoy the party.
That's where we come in.
A New Chapter
Cortes Event Co. represents a new chapter for me-one built on years of experience, a renewed passion for the industry, and a desire to serve every client with intention.
Whether you need someone to coordinate the details, help design and decorate your celebration, provide the rentals, create the florals, or bring everything together from beginning to end, I'm here to help make your celebration beautiful, organized, and genuinely enjoyable.
Thank you for being here and taking the time to learn a little about Cortes Event Co.
I can't wait to see what we create together.
