Meet Your New Best Friends, Our Leadership Team.
Sherryl holds a Bachelors in Business Administration (BBA) and has a diverse knowledge of organizations ranging from small businesses, to not-for-profit associations to large multi-national companies. She is the engagement specialist!
As if running Rare Affairs wasn’t enough, Sherryl is also the Past President of the Fraser Valley Event Planning Association and a member of Meeting Planners International.
Fun Fact! As a young child Sherryl always wanted to be a Monkey Keeper…not really sure why…but she really likes monkeys!
Chris holds a Bachelors in Business Administration (BBA) and loves working with companies to help them flourish.
He builds event websites and mobile event apps, constructs custom décor, runs tech for virtual events, runs the show from the A/V table for live events and can even stand in front of the crowd to emcee. As a musician, with the acoustic trio Exit 58, he has a keen understanding of how the show needs to run to ensure that it is entertaining and seamless.
When he grows up he would like to be a Master Sommelier…because it’s a fun word to say, and he loves drinking wine!
She is extremely detail oriented, loves budgets and has a borderline unhealthy excitement for a good spreadsheet. Customer satisfaction is extremely important to Laura, and she takes the time to truly connect with her clients to ensure their vision is reflected in her event design. Laura is also a dedicated member of her industry network, and the Director of Marketing for the Fraser Valley Event Planning Association.
As a lifelong musician and member of the acoustic trio Exit 58, Laura brings years of performance experience to her role. She is also an adventurous self-proclaimed foodie who understands the value of a solid Food & Beverage menu that will add to the attendee experience. Truth be told, Laura secretly hopes she will be asked to be the next host of Diners, Drive-In’s and Dives.
We Thrive On Challenging Projects. They Produce Bigger Rewards In The End.
Trust Us! You’re Gonna Love Working With Our Team!
We are Creative!
If we can’t find what we’re looking for we’ll find a way to make it happen.For a recent 1960’s themed award show event we custom built this amazing photo booth to match the era, decor, and colours complete with shag carpet and rotary phone. Laura even dressed the part!
We Are Experienced!
From cruises, to meetings, to carnivals. If you dream it, we can do it!Since 1999, we have planned events from Whistler to the Interior of BC. From 1920’s themed Corporate Awards Shows to Zip-Lining at Multi-Day Leadership Summits we’ve done it all!
We Are Fun!
We don’t believe that conferences have to be dull and boring.We create exciting events that encourage participation and engagement. Did your last conference have a dance off during Name That Tune? Didn’t think so…but ours did!
