  • The corona virus is having a serious impact on many industries and small local businesses right now, but the Event & Hospitality industry is getting hit the hardest. The Event Industry is built on people gathering to celebrate .... our friends and colleagues are in crisis mode dealing with many client emergencies, postponements/cancellations, staff cuts and layoffs, financial hardships and company shutdowns. It is a very stressful time for their businesses and their families. I know firsthand that event people are strong and resilient- we eat stress for breakfast and solve problems for supper - it’s our job!! lol But I want to PERSONALLY encourage everyone to Postpone NOT Cancel events to #SAVEEVENTS to support your local event professionals .... because we will have a lot to celebrate on the other side of this when the time is right. Keep the Event Industry in your hearts and prayers .... we will be back! #eventindustry #eventprofs #coronavirus #eventplanner #winnipegevents #saveevents #covid_19
  • Staying positive is so important during this time of uncertainties ... We challenge you to share with us ways you are staying positive and spreading positivity at home, at work and in our community! What’s mine you ask? I’m staying positive by enjoying the gift of this precious family time, slowing WAY down and enjoying the simple things I enjoy like reading and watching as many old movies as possible! I am picking up the phone and calling people and just talking, sharing and laughing ... Laughter is key each day! Share your positive thoughts below! ............................................. #eventindustry #stayhome #stayhealthy #staysafe #staypositive #covid_19 #spreadlove #spreadpositivity
  • We are in this together! Stay Home, Stay Safe, Stay Healthy & Positive! #covid_19 #weareinthistogether #strongertogether #winnipeg #eventplanner #eventprofs #eventsbyemma #stayhomecanada
  • Day 8 – Self-Isolation Well it’s been exactly 8 days since we returned and started our self-isolation. It’s been truly a whirlwind of ups and downs, emotions and decisions hundreds of phone calls and emails. I am so touched with everyone’s support, understanding and willingness to accommodate – we are truly in this together! FAMILY - We are trying to enjoy this GIFT of quality time as a family… we have set-up regular school hours in our home to create a bit of a schedule and routine. We are emptying the pantry and freezer and trying to manage with what we have and be creative with our recipes (thank goodness for the internet of creative ideas) - trying new things and cooking together. We are binge watching way too much TV (I think we love vampire and supernatural stuff way too much!), but we are trying to enjoy the rest and togetherness. We have opened board games that have been sitting on our shelves since last Christmas and past birthdays….. love …. Exploding Cats! (my new favourite game). We shoveled the deck yesterday and hope to go outside a bit more next week …. looks like the weather is going to be nice for the weekend. Dannie and I have been talking …really really talking as our future is unknown – but our marriage and family is strong and we know that will get us through these challenging times. WORK – I am working from home in this new virtual office … 10+ years in business … this is hardest thing I have dealt with (and I have dealt with some pretty hard and stressful things) …We have cancelled/postponed/rescheduled most of our events (just a few holding on to hope between now and summer). We are trying very hard to accommodate everyone’s needs, changes etc. and provide support and guidance through these ever changing times. I WILL NOT LET ANYONE DOWN - I PROMISE. {CONTINUED IN COMMENTS BELOW}
  • Update – Day 2 of self-isolation I don’t usually share a ton of personal information on my IG account (although people keep telling me I should) … or write a ton of personal thoughts, but -- It is times like these that you are so grateful for the people in your life, I am so thankful for our NEIGHBOURS, FRIENDS AND FAMILY who have been calling, texting etc. to ask us if we are good, support us and have offered to drop off meals or pick up groceries for us, we’ve even had offers for sharing of toilet paper supplies lol …… so amazing! But I think we are good… The past two days have been hard …. Not going to lie …. I am not a very emotional person …. but lots of emotions, tough phone calls and decisions that I am having to make. We are working VIRTUALLY until it is advisable to resume regular operations. The kids were so nice and made a desk for me upstairs in my room by the window. Dannie has been making me tons of tea…. We are working hard with all of our CLIENTS to put in place contingency plans for their events, working closely with clients that are canceling and postponing their events. We will CONTINUE to plan events over the next few months, building towards a strong event season when the clouds clear and we all start to move forward. We have had to make some tough STAFFING decisions already and will continue to monitor the situation with the majority of events cancelled and postponed a least till the fall or until further notice. For our PARTNERS, many who we have been on the phone with non-stop since we got back … we send out our LOVE and support to all of our industry friends and colleagues who have been so deeply affected by COVID-19 … the effects to the Events Industry has been crippling, many seeing impacts financially already … please know you are in our thoughts and prayers as we navigate these uncertainties together. I feel very optimistic we will all get through this together. Our first priorities are the health and safety of our families and communities…. [CONTINUED IN COMMENTS]...
  • Wow, a lot has changed since Dannie and I left for our Honeymoon (20 years late!) -- 10 days ago we left for what was to be a trip of a lifetime for us – our 20th Anniversary (we had never taken a formal honeymoon years ago and Dannie surprised me with this trip!), no kids and a chance to re-energize our marriage and ourselves (so needed!). The first few days were amazing and then mid-week we were trying to figure out what was going on back home with little to no WiFi. Things changed so quickly. We returned last night at 5 pm (Monday March 16) and started immediate self-isolation for the next 14 days. (We were so scared they were going to close the borders and we could not be back to our kids and family). We have removed our kids from school as we will have some limited contact with them. We are following public health guidelines and for the safety of our community, staff, partners and clients we will be working from home. The well-being and safety of all are our first priority. As for Events by Emma and due to Event Industries unknown future ….. This is so DEVASTATING to me on so many levels. As of today ….. almost 99% of our events have been cancelled/postponed as a result of the severe corona virus (COVID-19) outbreak, I am trying today and this week to catch up with all of my clients and support them the best way I know how. Like everyone else in the events industry, we are closely monitoring the government guidelines as it relates to large gatherings. I understand it is difficult for you to gauge what your needs are with all the uncertainty of your events. Our EBE team will refocus our efforts from helping our clients to plan, design and produce their events to helping clients make contingency plans. I am here for you …. If you need advice, or if you simply want to talk …. I am only a phone call or email away. EBE effective immediately will no longer meet face-to-face with clients, all meetings will be changed to conference calls or postponed until further notice. We will do our best to send all correspondence and documents via email. WE love what we do, we appreciate your support, patience and value your business! We are so thankful for you! Emma
