Hi, I’m Sarah, owner and senior planner/designer of this little dream of mine known as EVENTful Moments. I am happily married and together we have 3 amazing children, a teenage son and boy/girl twins. My family is my world! We reside in Arlington, close to where my husband and I grew up, and absolutely love it. I may love the city life but have come to realize I will always be a country girl at heart.
When I’m not planning events, I love to cook. Some women relax with a bubble bath, for me, it’s a great recipe! I also enjoy crafting, shopping (especially when it's a good deal), date nights with my hubby, snuggling with my incredibly spoiled puppies, and anything/everything to do with my kids!
The concept of EVENTful Moments began after planning my own wedding. I was the bride that thought I could do everything on my own and while I LOVED the planning process, I didn’t consider the behind the scenes, or how beneficial it could be to have someone on your team with expert advice & resources within the industry. To say the day ended in a blur would be an understatement.
In 2010 I decided to take LWPI’s certified wedding and event planning course and I guess you can say, the rest is history. I can honestly say I have found my dream job. With every couple/client we work with, I find that constant reassurance that this is my calling. It stretches my creativity, problem-solving ability and the relationships we get to build with our couples and vendors, cannot be beat.
I often get asked what my favorite part of a wedding or event is? To me, it’s the end of the day. When your client comes up to you and tells you the day was a dream come true, it’s the best feeling in the world!!!

Growing up as an only child on a 13-acre farm in Arlington, I learned pretty early on how to entertain myself. I loved to read and imagine, and at a pretty young age, I cultivated a love for all things weddings. A few months after starting college I had an epiphany; I needed to be a wedding planner.
After graduating from Western with a BA in Communication and a minor in business, I accepted a position at an all-inclusive wedding venue as a member of their Wedding Planning Team. It was a wonderful way to start my career and gain some experience, but I knew it wasn't the perfect fit. Enter Sarah and Eventful Moments, where I have truly found my tribe and an environment that feels like home.
Since becoming a member of the EM family, I have planned, coordinated and assisted over a hundred weddings, and have loved every second of it.
I am married to my high school sweetheart, Rob and together we have two children, our beautiful daughter Emma, and our cat Cinder. We both grew up in Arlington but now reside in Skykomish, where he is a full-time firefighter.
In my free time, I love to cook, snuggle up with a good book (and my kitten), or bust out some Celine Dion karaoke. I also love elephants and have a serious case of wanderlust.

Hello, I’m Demrie! I grew up here in the Snohomish area and this is where I get to raise my two kids, Thomas and Spencer. My kids love adventure just as much as I do! In our free time you will mostly find us outdoors, exploring new areas, and trying new things any chance we get. I like paddle boarding in the summer and snowboarding in the winter. I love baking, attending sporting events (soccer, football, hockey… you name it!), and of course hosting all kinds of events with my friends and family!
All my life I have naturally been drawn to event planning. It was my dream job since I was little and the focus of my career aspirations through high school. I finally took the leap and Sarah made me a part of the EVENTful Moments family and the rest is history! My favorite part about wedding planning is making your perfect vision come to life and truly making your dream a reality. Every wedding is different, creative, and beautiful in its own unique way which keeps the memories lasting a lifetime.

“Everything happens for a reason”… I became a part of EVENTful Moments in 2012, after meeting Sarah at a Snohomish Wedding Guild meeting. I knew after meeting her, I would love working with her. Over the years, our team has only grown and these girls are like my extended family! I love working with each and every one of them and it truly warms my heart to help our couples make their special day one that they won’t forget!
After graduating from Snohomish High School, I followed through on my goal to attend WSU (Go Cougs!!). I graduated in 3.5 years with my BA in Communications with an emphasis in Public Relations.
In 2015, I was blessed with the birth of my son Trey, who is my #1 biggest accomplishment of my life. Being a mom is one of the coolest, fun, stressful, exciting things I have ever experienced in my life.
In the summer of 2017 (after being nagged by one of my friends) I went on a first date with my now husband, Mark. He has been one of the biggest blessings that has come into my life and so grateful for him. Together our family also includes two fur babies, a chocolate lab named Chesney and a pitbull named Chloe.
When we aren’t slightly feeling like a crazy circus at home, we love to hang out with our friends and family, go camping and attend Mariners or Seahawks games.

Hello! My name is Breonna, I am married to my High School Sweetheart, and we have two amazing little boys Carson and Drew! After graduating from Snohomish High School, I went to Bellevue College where I played softball for 2 seasons. I then transferred to Seattle University to finish my last 2 years of college softball while getting my BA in Psychology. Baseball/Softball is a big part of my family’s life. My husband played for the UW baseball team and then played professionally for 6 years. This experience was incredible as we were able to travel all around the US. However, the best part about my husband playing professionally was the friendships that were made with people from all over the world. So, when I am not assisting with a wedding you will probably find me at a baseball field with my family.
I have always had a passion for event planning. My very favorite thing about planning is getting all the small details just right and knowing the memories from this special day will last a lifetime. When I got the opportunity to meet with Sarah & Jessica to possibly be a part of this team, I instantly felt like I had known these women forever. After our meeting ended, I knew I needed to be a part of this EVENTful Moments Family! Lucky enough they ask me to join, and I said “YES!”

Hello Darlings, I’m Samantha! I met Sarah in 2014 when my husband and I hired her as our wedding planner and it was hands down the best investment we made.
Being a military family, we moved to Ventura, CA shortly after our wedding. I was inspired by the process of planning our wedding and decided to pursue a career in the wedding industry, quickly jumping into a new role with a company based out of Santa Barbara, and thus began my journey.
When we moved back to the PNW, I knew I had to contact Sarah. I am so thankful to be working with such a talented group of women, helping make dreams a reality. Being in love is such a beautiful thing. I am a firm believer that you should get to celebrate your love, your way, and making those dreams come to life for couples, is an absolute dream job.
Outside of work you can almost always find me with my family. Together, my husband and I have two daughters, two huskies & two cats. We live a loud, beautiful life in a place we are proud to call home.

Hi, I’m Jess! I am the wife of an EMT and the mom to the cutest little boy, Jack! I love all kinds of music (however I’m a country girl at heart), my kitties Hank & Dolly, basically every show on Bravo, and a nice glass of wine. You can find me spending time over the mountains at my family’s cabin any chance I get; Leavenworth is our happy place.
Growing up in the wedding industry, falling into this career made so much sense. I can’t tell you how many barbie weddings I planned as a kid or how many times I’ve watched The Wedding Planner. I’ve always been a sucker for love.
I found my job with EVENTful Moments through Instagram (do you follow us yet??) after I had been in a wedding Jessica Campbell coordinated. Once I met Sarah and the rest of the team, I knew I had found my people! I’m so lucky to be a part of our little family!
Being an EM bride myself, I really could not tell you just how important having a planner is, especially day of! To be able to just be a bride and have my team make my wedding day dreams come true, was so magical and special. I am so lucky to be able to give that feeling back to our brides!
