Meet Jessica Luteraan, Owner of World’s Best Event Planning

Posted on June 7, 2020 | Filed Under: Real Moms of the SFV | Tags: Jessica Luteraan, LA Party Planners, professional party planners, World's Best Event Planning | Leave a Comment

In early May, I reached out to a Valley-based parenting group on Facebook and asked for recommendations on “happy birthday” lawn signs. My daughter was turning 14 and since hosting a party inside of our home was out of the question due to social distancing guidelines, my husband and I decided to throw a “drive-by” celebration. I received a few suggestions and chose to go with Jessica of World’s Best Event Planning. Why? Jessica is a … [Read more...]

Children's Books - Greg Paprocki and Kate Coombs

One of the things I loved doing with my daughter when she was a toddler is to take her to the bookstore to look at children’s books. We would spend an hour or two browsing the aisles and sitting next to other kids with their parents during storytime. My daughter is older now, and times have changed. There are fewer local bookstores and with stay-at-home orders in many cities, you probably are not aware about new book releases. Little kids … [Read more...]

Rubio's National Shrimp Day

I love a good food holiday and with Cinco de Mayo behind us, we have another fun holiday to look forward to – National Shrimp Day! Fun Fact: Americans eat more shrimp than any other seafood. Remember that guy from the "Forrest Gump" movie who loved to eat shrimp? This festive food celebration is clearly his holiday! National Shrimp Day is celebrated on May 10th, which coincidentally falls on Mother’s Day this year. If you’re like me, the best … [Read more...]

Laura Prepon - Book

A couple weeks ago, I attended an online Mamarazzi with The Moms! The guest speaker was Laura Prepon, who most people remember from “Orange is the New Black” and/or “That '70s Show.” Laura Prepon’s new book entitled, "You and I, as Mothers: A Raw and Honest Guide to Motherhood" debuted on (virtual) bookshelves on April 7th! Being a mother, I’ve always been fascinated by memoirs that detail life as a mom. Is it going to be a highly … [Read more...]

PopSugar Grounded - Step and Repeat

Last month, I attended PopSugar Grounded in Hollywood. It was the last blogger-type event that I attended before the quarantine/shelter-in-place restrictions were instituted in Los Angeles. First let me state for the record, that I purchased my $25 ticket for a half-day session, and I wasn’t obligated to write about this for my blog. However, I had such a fun time that I wanted to share this recap with my readers! When I first arrived … [Read more...]
