Actionable first steps for planning an event, plus how to make events more meaningful.

Planning a wedding, retreat, or big event can feel overwhelming—but it doesn’t have to be. This course will help you start strong by focusing on the most important and expensive elements first: venue, catering, and other big-ticket items. You’ll learn how to confidently make these key decisions so that the rest of your planning process falls into place with ease.
In the second half, we’ll dive into how to make your event more meaningful, personal, and memorable. Whether you’re stuck, uninspired, or just getting started, this course is here to give you clarity, momentum, and the tools to create a thoughtful, well-executed event.

HI! I'm Hanna and I believe in thoughtful, organized, and beautiful events that delight guests and give them a warm feeling for months after. Small touches and purposeful execution will almost always lead you to success. Given enough lead time, I think anyone can plan a spectacular small or large scale event. More recently, I began working on a passion project - my travel blog. My experience planning events effortlessly transition into planning incredible trips. I will also be teaching travel tips and tricks that I have learned. Background: I have been event planning in the Santa Barbara area for the last five years. As a junior in college, I took an incredible event planning internship in Oahu, Hawaii. Upon graduating, I immediately jumped into an events career, working on weddings, personal events, a little corporate planning, and worked the longest in non-profit event management. In my courses, I want to share everything I have learned over the years in event planning and traveling. There is a learning curve for traveling well and planning events, but I hope my classes will help you bypass some of the trial-by-fire aspects. I cannot wait to see what events you create and where you go! Warmly, Hanna
Provincial regulators of CPAs in Canada do not require that independent providers of CPD be approved to offer courses. Instead, individual CPAs are responsible for assessing whether a CPD activity meets their requirements, and may take activities from any source provided those requirements are met.
Every course offered on LearnFormula is delivered by a qualified subject matter expert or learning organization, and advances learning objectives that are relevant to the responsibilities or professional competencies of Canadian CPAs. All activities on LearnFormula are quantifiable in terms of hours, and are also verifiable, in that users receive documented evidence of their attendance via a certificate of completion after finishing a course (and this certificate is stored by LearnFormula indefinitely). Nearly 100,000 Canadian CPAs successfully satisfy their CPD requirements via LearnFormula on an annual basis.
