WELCOME home.

My name is Amber and I am a party planner and the founder of While Entertaining Media. My story begins simply with a love of food and an enthusiasm for dinner parties. I created WE Media to help others find true joy, confidence, and community in the party planning and hosting experience. Through a yearly magazine, snackable digital content, and a forthcoming book, I share what I know to make it easier for you to enjoy the planning and the party. I’ll challenge you to get organized, embrace new voices, and appreciate simple, soulful details. Your journey to becoming the hostess with the mostest starters here.
