My name is Manda Gill and I have been working in the events industry since 2013, Most recently running the events at The Milwaukee Art Museum.
I have a Bachelor's Degree from the University of Wisconsin Milwaukee and a strong background in art and design. I started my event career as a catering server during college. That position led me to Event Coordinator, Event Sales, Event Management, Event Planning and Director of Events. Working one on one with families is why I am an Event Planner. I joke that my decades of experience allow me to absorb all the stress that goes into creating unique events, allowing my clients to experience joy.
I believe that every wedding should be a reflection of the couple getting married and I am here to facilitate that goal. I am here for you- from navigating timelines, finding vendors that meet your needs or guiding you through the design process.
When I am not working, I spend most of my time with my 5 year old daughter, Leya.
Leya has her Mama’s passion for art so we are almost always creating in one way or another. I am a bit of a fashion nut- constantly thrifting and hunting for vintage wares. During the summer I am on my bike as often as possible and really love exploring what Milwaukee has to offer.
I look forward to helping create your vision and celebrating your love.
Cori, a creative mind with a "Why Not" outlook, holds a BFA in Design from the Milwaukee Institute of Art and Design. Surrounded by artists since childhood, her love for creativity shines through. With a diverse background in advertising, exhibit design, and now event design, Cori's journey has been nothing short of inspiring.
As the former Event Director at Pritzlaff Events, Cori made waves by opening the historic venue in 2011. Her leadership led to the transformation of the space into one of Milwaukee's top venues, hosting countless exceptional events. Now, she brings her expertise to événement, merging her passion for crafting unique weddings with a dedicated team.
For Cori, transitioning from 2D to 3D design in her career felt like a natural evolution. She views events as "Experiential Design," where every aspect contributes to a memorable experience. From the initial invitation to the ceremony, music, food, and floral arrangements, the design concept plays a pivotal role in shaping the overall experience.
Join Cori on a journey of discovery, where together, you'll uncover your voice, personality, and unique concept. Whether you lean towards sweet and romantic, bold and modern, minimalist and clean, or quirky and colorful, the creative possibilities are limitless.
