The Celebration Guides
Complimentary planning resources designed to help you celebrate with confidence.
From birthdays and baby showers to milestone celebrations, these guides bring together trusted local recommendations, practical planning tips and inspiration from across Bainbridge Island and Kitsap County.
Thoughtfully Curated. Locally Focused.
Why I Created The Celebration Guides
Planning a celebration often starts with the same question:
"Where do I begin?"
As an event planner, I'm often asked for recommendations—from the best venues and balloon artists to my favorite local bakeries and caterers. Over time, I realized those conversations could become something more helpful.
The Erickson Event Design Celebration Guides are a growing collection of complimentary planning resources designed to make celebrating easier. Each guide brings together trusted local recommendations, practical planning advice and inspiration from across Bainbridge Island and Kitsap County.
Whether you're planning a child's birthday, hosting friends, organizing a bridal shower or baby shower, or celebrating a milestone, my hope is these guides help you spend less time searching and more time enjoying the moments that matter.
