With an extensive background in Seattle information, guiding and hosting
we provide Receptive and Guest Services for clients in the Greater Seattle area.


Our Services:

We will arrange for caterers and venues, including menu selections, for an event, a day or a week

We will arrange for transportation: bus, van, limousine, etc.

We will be an on-site host for your events to free your representatives from concern about the event itself. That way,  you can concentrate on your guests.

We will provide guide service throughout the Greater Seattle area.


Charges:

We charge only for the time we spend, whether in person or making arrangements, and pass on any discounts or commissions to our clients.

Our rate is $40/hour, with a 3-hour minimum.

Other charges, such as restaurants and limousines, are charged directly to the client=s credit card.

What this means: You pay only for the time required to make the plans you want and you, the client, remain in full control of decisions and expenses.

Customized scheduling, event planning, guiding and host services for small groups (typically 25 or fewer) in the Seattle area.
