events

How lucky are we to celebrate others? We absolutely love what we do - getting to know and connect with incredible clients and creatives and working to bring special moments to life truly is the best job ever.

We believe that there is a true art to entertaining and on any given weekend we’re entertaining for a crowd!

Welcome to Valley & Co. - we're so happy you're here! We're Aleah and Nick Valley, the husband-and-wife duo who founded Valley & Company Events in Seattle in 2003.

Our story begins long ago - growing up in Washington State, we were both enamored with parties. The really special kind that reflected a moment in time or celebrated someone we loved. Beach bonfires and crab boils, circus-themed soirees, funny hat parties, and holidays in between sparked a passion in each of us.

Fast forward to 2003 - after both working at student organizations, we graduated from university (where we threw some truly epic parties together!) and armed with degrees in Business Entrepreneurship (Aleah) and Criminal Justice and Social Deviance (Nick), we launched Valley & Co. Two of our first events were fantastic: a youth-geared fundraiser for a non-profit benefitting children and a Halloween wedding! Talk about flexing our planning chops out of the gate!

We have grown our company into a renowned house of wedding and event planning, design, and floral, where we work hard to create clever surprises, impeccable visions and to execute feelings and moments that look just like our clients. Your event will become your hallmark, and it should feel just like you.

From the big picture of the music, menu and venue to the finite details of how each place setting will look and what each course guests are eating looks and tastes like, a pinch of this and a dash of that all come together to tell your story. Our weddings and events are balanced and imaginative and continually raise the bar. We work together day in and day out and thrive on creativity and wouldn't have it any other way!

It's a total delight to be named Top Planners in the World by Harper's BAZAAR, Vogue, Over The Moon, Martha Stewart, and more (pinch us!). Our clients range from teachers and nurses to military personnel, NHL and NFL players, Forbes Listers, corporate clients and brands and NDA clients - all who entrust us to raise the bar for their special moments.

I love a good glass of champagne, family time, and gardening. I am inspired by the sea, lush European gardens, historic architecture, and cool people. My grandmother owned a flower shop when I was growing up and she and my mom have inspired my creativity and passion for flowers. My favorite moment at our events: seeing the culmination of a dream come to life. There's always a perfect moment when everyone is dancing, visiting, and enjoying the celebration. It's remarkably rewarding!

Seeing our clients as the life of their own party is incredibly rewarding! When their guests are experiencing a fabulously planned menu, incredible music, our beautiful floral creations, and truly having the time of their lives, we've done our job! -Aleah

there's this moment we strive for at our events -- where guests are in that moment and nowhere else. the dance floor is full and there's a buzz of excitement and happiness. that's when we know we've got them! - Nick

Co-Founder

I'm a fan of great food and drink, big celebrations, late nights, and the stories that come from those ingredients. Year after year I feel honored to help bring to life memories that will last forever for our couples and clients. I lend my contract skills, creativity and imagination, and logistical ability to throw incredible parties and celebrations for our clients. My favorite moment at our events is when all of the guests, young and old, are in that moment and nowhere else.

While our focus is always on our clients, we are honored to have our work featured across countless publications and to have received some incredible accolades over the years. Receiving praise and applause from our work is humbling and it keeps us inspired.
