About Gemma
Once a screenwriter and now an international event planner, Gemma composes events to display emotion, verve and originality. She adores art history — paying attention to the results but also the characters and places that brought them to be. She brings grit and gusto to every challenge, and her sense of humor feels like home. Unsurprisingly, her work has graced the covers of Vogue, BRIDES and Martha Stewart Weddings.
From Gemma
My latest role is always my favorite, but I can’t help but to be nostalgic for the past — longing for the events and the people whose hearts stay with me. They beat within me like a drum, a pulse catapulting me into the next challenge, the next world of ideas that will keep me up late into the night (but let’s be honest, I’m a night owl anyways).
The People of Presley Events
We create for you, but we also create for the experience of working together as people, humans, individuals with wildly different thoughts and one collective goal — be evidently memorable. Our evidence? Design you can feel.
Meet the rest of the Powerhouse:
Marcus Cross
Lead Planner & Chaos Wrangler
Marcus is the calm in the storm, the timeline whisperer, and the guy who somehow remembers which cousin has a nut allergy. With more than a decade of planning everything from cliffside dinners to estate discos, Marcus knows how to keep a wedding weekend smooth while still making it look effortless.
Selene Hart
Creative Director & Detail Obsessive
Selene believes that every detail tells a story. Each tablescape, floral arrangement, and party favor contributes to the larger narrative at hand. Her eye for aesthetics sets trends, while her knack for details executes them better than you’ve ever seen. Using nearly a decade of experience in hospitality, she’ll pull it all off with her sunshine-like smile.
