TAKES CENTER STAGE
ENSURING YOUR STORY
Dear September Events emerged from a desire to help people find joy and connection in the midst of chaos and uncertainty. When the pandemic paused her career as a Broadway actress for an unprecedented 18 months, our creative force and visionary, DeAnne, who was also a 2020 bride, embraced the chance to channel her artistry in a different way.
With an eye for design and a heart for connection, DeAnne thrives on creating celebrations that feel uniquely personal and deeply memorable. Her background in performing on global stages has shaped her love for storytelling and attention to detail, while her passion for collaboration ensures every couple feels seen, heard, and celebrated. DeAnne approaches every event with warmth, creativity, and the belief that the best celebrations are the ones that truly reflect the people at the center of them.
