Events by Jen

One of the things I'm most proud of is watching a simple idea grow into a thriving community.

A few years ago, I saw an opportunity to bring together the incredible hospitality professionals who live, work, and play right here in The Woodlands. The people behind the hotels, restaurants, venues, attractions, events, and experiences that make our community so special.

Today, Hospitality Managers of The Woodlands (HMOTW) continues to connect professionals, create partnerships, spark new business opportunities, and build lasting friendships throughout our industry.

Whether you're in sales, events, catering, tourism, restaurants, hotels, attractions, entertainment, or hospitality support services, we'd love to have you join us.

Because business is important, but relationships are everything.

I can't wait to see where this community goes next.

If you’ve ever planned an event with me, you already know…

I’m not just the planner.

I’m:
– The chef with the snacks
– The handyman with the toolbox
– The nurse with the first aid kit
– And occasionally…the therapist

Somewhere along the way, “boots on the ground” turned into “the one who fixes it before anyone else even notices it’s broken.”

And here’s the kicker…It’s my FAVORITE role.

That’s the person you trust when it actually matters.

Last week, I had the honor of producing the Texas Masonry Council Hall of Fame at none other than the iconic Alamo - and WOW… what a night to remember.

But let’s be real… events like this don’t just magically happen (although we make it look that way 😉). It takes a vendor team that shows up, shows out, and handles their business like absolute pros.

✨ HUGE shoutout to the rockstars behind the scenes:

🥂 Spice of Life Catering - Flawless ex*****on, beautiful presentation, and service that kept everything flowing seamlessly all night long. You made it look EASY.

🍽️ Absolute Rentals - From the moment guests arrived, the setup elevated the entire experience. Clean, polished, and exactly what the space deserved.

📸 Tico Mendoza - You captured the magic in a way that lets us relive every moment. Your eye for storytelling is unmatched — THANK YOU for these incredible memories.

🏛️ Ellie Curren and The Alamo Team - It is truly something special to host an event in such a historic and meaningful space. Your partnership, coordination, and care for every detail made this experience unforgettable.

🎧 Texas Pro Audio Rentals - The real MVP behind the mic. From the video wall to perfectly timed cues and transitions, they ran that show like a well-oiled machine. Flawless ex*****on.

Events like this don’t just happen, they are built by passionate people who care deeply about the experience, the story, and the impact.

Already dreaming about next year… bigger, bolder, and just a little more extra.
