Mikii Rathmann – Your Event Planner

An Event Planner, I have been planning weddings, meetings and parties for more than 12 years.  It’s such a joy to be part of a celebration.   I remember as a kid that my dad would have these huge parties.  People would come from miles around and set up tents in the yard.  He would build a big stage behind the barn, and set up bbq’s galore.  People danced, laughed, cooked, played music and forgot their troubles.   I always marveled over it, how a party could be so magical. Prior to starting Neon Carrot Events I worked in the hotel industry for nearly 20 years.  I love hotels.  I learned so much about business, travel, hospitality, events and what made me happy.   There is nothing more exciting than having a group of people come together under one roof for something fun.  The energy, the laughter, the ideas.   I’ts inspiring, and as an Event Planner I’m thrilled that I get to be a part of it.
