Our Story

From Restaurant to Reimagining the Event Experience.

We built ERIA after years of saying yes in restaurants — to last-minute tables, impossible menus, and guests who needed more than a reservation.

That same instinct drives how we plan. When a client asks for something unusual, our first answer is how — not why not.

Today we operate waterfront venues and a full planning studio so ideas move from conversation to celebration without bouncing between vendors who never talk to each other.

Full-service planning is available in the Bay Area or worldwide. Our planning minimum is $150,000.

  • We Think Like Planners

    We design the night the way you would — then make it real.

  • We Communicate Directly

    Owner-to-client access. No account-manager maze.

  • We Make It Happen

    Unusual requests become logistics, not polite declines.

  • We Protect Your Experience, Not Our Ego

    Your moment stays first when plans shift.

Why ERIA?

Because Your Event Deserves More Than 'Standard.'

We go above and beyond so you can focus on what matters — your guests.

We Say Yes.

Flexibility for unusual requests — timelines, layouts, and details most venues won't touch.

We Care Deeply.

Personal investment from a team that treats every celebration like our own reputation.

Direct Access.

Talk to owners and planners who actually produce the night — not a sales relay.

Full Customization.

Design, branding, and flow built around you — no template weekends.

No Venue Ego.

Rules bend when hospitality requires it. Guests never feel the friction.

Experienced & Trusted.

Venue-backed planning across weddings, corporate, and private celebrations.

We've Done It All

Big or Small. Simple or Spectacular. We Bring Every Vision to Life.

If you can dream it, we can plan it.
