In 2016 …I had an idea
After running a party directory, blog and vendor community …
What if I could bring together business owners across the event industry for a day of connection, learning and inspiration?
There was nothing else like it
So I created it and we hosted our first Celebrate Conference
The testimonials were overwhelmingly positive and it was clear ..
Event industry vendors needed this type of in person connection and in person learning
This is the heart of the whole event
Everyone is so busy helping others have the most incredible celebrations
But who is supporting those who are creating this joy in other’s lives ?
Who is putting on an experience for them so they can connect and find each other but ALSO walk away with the business tools they need ?
I fell pregnant with my 4th child so we didn’t have a conference in 2017 but I was back in 2018 hosting our 2nd conference while having kids age 1,3,5 and 7
Since then I’ve continue to host this opportunity based on the testimonials and the requests from the industry in 2019,2022,2023 and 2025 and now hosting my 7th one in 2026 this time in Melbourne on August 11
Over the years I also developed the Celebrate Society membership and Celebrate online magazine
The heart of everything has been the same
Supporting event industry vendors so they can continue to thrive in business, bring joy to other families and have the freedom that their own business brings
I don’t have a big team behind me
I’m not a huge company
If you get a DM from me? It’s actually me
But it has been a true joy and honour of my career to bring together the BEST of the event industry to speak at these events and to be in the room.
Someone told me last year - who came to the conference for their first time after being invited numerous times
“Tanya I wish I came all the times before you asked me to come. Now I’ll be there for all the future ones”
It is easy to see photos of this event and really not get the value until you’re there. Vendors don’t realise what they miss by not coming
2026 is your chance
I invite you to get out of your comfort zone and put yourself in the room. LINK IN BIO for details.
