Today I cleaned, I cooked, and I got ready for this weekend, because being an event planner means the events never stop!
But I do more than decorations. I’m planning events, organizing activities in the Dominican Republic 🇩🇴, supporting people doing amazing things, and working on some projects I can’t wait to share. 
Stay tuned, one reel at a time! by @wendy.colon

Apparently, my husband’s friend thinks my husband needs to take my phone away because he wasted THREE MINUTES watching my video. 😂📱

Sir, nobody forced you! And now you’ve given me MORE content to post. Thank you! 🤣

Meanwhile, I’m out here working, planning events, setting up 38 tables, decorating entrances, and finding ways to work smarter — not harder. 🎈
And to everybody watching — please like my videos, because apparently, I need all the support I can get to protect my phone privileges! 😂😂😂

It’s kind of chic to go a little bit EXTRA! 

Some people call it extra. I call it making people feel special. 😂❤️

Work event, friend’s birthday, or my own celebration, I believe the little details make the memories. YES, I’m blowing balloons and making centerpieces for work and no one asked me to do it.. And YES, I even bring my own touches to the restaurants where we celebrate.

Do I sometimes do too much? Maybe! 😂🤷🏽‍♀️ But life is too short not to celebrate the people we love.

Drop an emoji if you’ve ever been called EXTRA 🙋🏽‍♀️👇 I know I’m the only one! by @wendy.colon

Planning events with these amazing women in a beautiful setting! 

I had the pleasure of planning alongside Erica de la Cruz from Collaborative Programs at KBCC, @drangelabatista , Founder of Transformation by Design, and Andri Perez, School Counselor at Eagle Academy for Young Men of Harlem. 💙

We gathered at the beautiful Rocca Café & Lounge, where great conversations and collaboration came together. Grateful to connect with inspiring women who are passionate about creating meaningful opportunities and making a difference in the lives of our young people! 🤍 by @wendy.colon

20 YEARS of saying “one day”... and I finally made it to Sleepy Hollow! 👀🎃🍂

And WOW, they take Halloween decorations VERY seriously! 😂

☕️ Sleepy Two Café: grab a coffee here! Which has a beautiful mission of creating employment opportunities for people with disabilities. ❤️
🌮 Taco Club: SO delicious! 

Pro tip: want the parade? Go during Halloween parade season! 👻 Want to enjoy it without the crowds? Pick a quieter day, like I did.

20 years later, totally worth the wait! 🍂❤️

Taking a break from my usual routine and grabbing lunch with a friend—it’s a refreshing change of pace and a chance to enjoy some new surroundings. #Sleepy-hollow #changeofscenery #coffees-and-conversation. #homeofwashingtonirving taken in Sleepy Hollow, New York by @wendy.colon

This is your reminder—and mine too! You don’t need another Halloween decoration. Put the skeleton down. You have enough!!!💀🎃 by @wendy.colon

When you’re ready to stay home and relax, but your husband says, “My love”, we have windows to install!” 

So here I am… in my pajamas, covered in dust, working on the house instead of relaxing on the couch like I planned. 

Marriage is teamwork, even when you had other plans. ❤️🏠

Tag a friend whose house is a never-ending project… but maybe don’t tag your husband. He’ll just put you to work too! 😆🛠️👇 by @wendy.colon

Steal my caterer. Steal my violinist. Steal my ideas, here you go, the info caterer: @saboresdekarinaa really went all out! Everything was delicious! The yucca balls and pastelillos were on point, and the flans were phenomenal — And Mateo on violin? @mateoviolino So punctual, so nice, had the birthday girl in tears with the surprise 🥹🎻 But if you want to borrow my equipment... there’s a minimal fee, mi amor 🤣💰 DM me if you want any of my ideas, I’m happy to share 🎉❤️ Tag the friend who deserves a celebration. by @wendy.colon
