Amazing lady!

I was so stressed keeping everything in order before hiring a coordinator but once I had Gina I kid you not within a week I was enjoying the process a whole lot more. She is so so excellent at what she does and also the kindest human!

- Grace Alex

Outstanding experience with Gina!

She is the best coordinator I have ever worked with. She ensured that I had no duties to deal with and no fools to fix. If there was any problem, whether with a single person or with a large piece of the event she washed it away quickly and discretely. She is amazing at her job and does it all with a glowing smile on her face! 11/10 would recommend!

- Sean Sheets

You will not be disappointed

Gina has been the event planner for two Bridal Fairs and Hemp Fest at Avenue 912 Event Center. She is professional, responsive, and listens to what her customers want while still bringing her own creativity and style. You will not be disappointed using Sugar on the Rim for any special event.
