The Process For Precision

  1. We’ll start with a conversation to talk through your goals, audience, budget, and vision so I can fully understand what success looks like for you and your mission.

  2. Once we choose the best package for your success, I’ll manage logistics, vendors, and communications while you stay focused on your purpose.

  3. After the event, we’ll review wins, gather feedback, and define what worked best so your next event is even more impactful!

I’m Tahirah, and I’m not the kind of planner who hides behind a clipboard.

With 10+ years of project management experience and a lifetime of hospitality skills, I bring a rare mix of design intuition, structured strategy, and an instinct for story-worthy moments your guests won’t forget.

How? I’m in it with you, listening to your goals, protecting your sanity, and curating experiences that make people feel (and act on) your mission.

About Bailey Reed Events

The Details

  • Bailey Reed Events specializes in mission-driven corporate and nonprofit events. We plan and execute everything from conferences and retreats to galas, auctions, and fundraisers. If your goal is to inspire connection, generosity, or impact, I’m your planner.

  • My fees are percentage-based so that they match the scope of your event. This way we never have to re-negotiate our contract mid-project because an aspect of the event was added or removed.

  • While I’m based in the D.C. area, I plan and produce events nationwide (and even abroad). I’m happy to travel wherever your mission takes you.

  • I recommend reaching out as soon as you can, especially for large-scale conferences or galas. But if you’re working on a tighter timeline, let’s talk about it! I’ll always do my best to make it work.
