Meet Alese & Maureen

Alese has a genuine passion for event planning, creating memorable moments and bringing people’s visions to life. From planning her own wedding to organizing parties for friends, she has always found joy in the details that make an event feel personal and unforgettable. Alese prides herself on staying organized, communicating clearly, and providing a professional yet welcoming experience for every client. 

Raised in Reno and now rooted in Winnemucca, Alese loves the connection and community that small-town living brings. Her goal in wedding planning and event planning is to make the process feel effortless and enjoyable, offering creativity, support, and a friendly presence from start to finish. She’s excited to help each client craft an event that truly reflects who they are.

Maureen brings a lifetime of passion, creativity, and heart to VP Events. Originally from Los Angeles, she has always loved event planning, designing celebrations, and helping friends create memorable moments. Her natural eye for detail and joy for hosting have made her the go-to person for events within her community for years. 

After moving to Reno, NV to raise her family, Maureen continued to pour her energy into wedding planning and crafting unforgettable experiences for loved ones. Now splitting her time between Reno and Winnemucca, she’s excited to bring her experience and enthusiasm into the business she shares with her daughter, Alese, who developed her own love for event planning by watching her mom do what she does best. 

Hard-working, kind, and deeply professional, Maureen believes every celebration deserves to feel special. At VP Events, she combines her warm personality with her commitment to quality, helping clients feel supported, understood, and truly celebrated.
