OUR STORY

Our founder, Amanda, started as a server at a small Italian restaurant in 2002. By 2005 she had moved into the banquet department of a five-star hotel, where her events career truly began.

She founded Your Community Event in 2010, and the 2022 Honeybee Festival turned our focus toward events that bring the whole community together. That same care for guests goes into every partnership we build.

let’s talk about partnering.

GET STARTED

Tell us a bit about what you have in mind. A venue, a sponsorship, a vendor spot, or a festival that needs a steward and we'll follow up to talk through fit.
