All About Us!
Patricia Pardy, of It’s your event., shares with you her expertise and
knowledge acquired while employed in the hospitality and tourism
industry for over 17 years. Along with her Bachelor of Arts Degree and
honors diploma in Tourism/Hospitality Management, Patricia
successfully completed her certification with the Wedding Planners
Institute of Canada in the Spring of 2009. Both her work and
educational experience have provided her direct, hands-on experience
in the field of sales and event management.
As a former Event Manager with a luxury hotel & casino in Halifax, NS,
Patricia had the pleasure of managing countless conferences,
meetings, holiday parties, corporate dinners, fundraising events, family
celebrations and weddings.
While employed in this position, Patricia recognized that many of her
clients consciously decided to plan and manage their own event (for
various reasons) without the assistance of a professional event
planner. However, for those clients who had never organized a large
scale event before, she quickly realized that they were in need of
professional advice and guidance ~ which she was always very happy
to share.
See what our Valued Clients have to say...
"Thank you so much for making this whole process so fun and enjoyable, and so easy. Most of all, thank you for making our
wedding day the day of our dreams. ... Everything about it was stunning, thanks to your expert planning and artistic sense.
We will cherish our memories of this day always!" (Denise & Nelson, September 2009)

comes to wedding coordinators, Patricia is in a league all her own!" (Sandie & Adrian, August 2009)
“Jeff and I just wanted to send you a big thank you for helping to make our day so special! Your constant help and advice
throughout the whole planning process was invaluable. Your kindness and care for us on the day was wonderful! Thanks for
ensuring everything went so smoothly and for being there for us. We were so lucky to have your guidance and support. We
wish you the best for the future and know that there will be many more brides and grooms like us for whom you will make the
process so much easier.” (Kirstin & Jeff, August 2009)
“ …you gave to us a mine of information and such a fantastic starting place to go ahead with our wedding plans. I really think
what you've put together (DIY Wedding Workbook & CD for Planning Your Special Day) is absolutely fabulous. We both
really appreciate your help and advice, and in all likelihood, will be in touch for some tips on how to deal with things that crop
up.” Nancy (Mother of the Bride-to-be, Summer 2009)
“Patricia was the Event Manager for my daughter’s wedding in the summer of 2006. I can recommend her without any
reservations whatsoever. She is a professional in every sense of the word. She was knowledgeable, efficient, always
pleasant, and, best of all, never said “no” to any of our ideas…rather she worked with us to help us achieve the special event
we wanted.” Goldie (Mother of the Bride, September 2006)
“…Patricia was our contact from our first meeting at the hotel and because of her immediate professional and friendly
approach; we felt confident booking and planning our reception (at the hotel)…. Patricia was unfailingly patient with our
numerous questions, very knowledgeable, helpful, always prompt and friendly, both with myself and with our bride from our
very first meeting, throughout all our subsequent meetings, numerous international phone calls and emails and finally,
during the last few days and the aftermath." Father & Mother of the Bride (August 2006)
From this work experience and client feedback, Patricia decided to step out on her own to bring forth her ideals, insider tips
and expertise to individuals planning their own event in Atlantic Canada. She envisioned an affordable and fun way to assist
individuals on how to successfully organize their own amazing event! The seed was planted and It’s your event. was
formed.
