Our Story

From Planning My Own Parties to Planning Yours

I used to be the person doing everything myself. Staying up until 2am making centerpieces, stress-texting vendors, running around on the day of instead of enjoying it. I thought that's just what hosting an event meant.

Then I realized no one should have to do that. Every host deserves to walk into their own event and feel like a guest. But most event planners were either too expensive, too corporate, or just didn't get the vision.

So I built something different. Party on Butler started with one simple idea: handle everything so the host doesn't have to. Every vendor call, every timeline, every setup detail — handled.

Now we've planned 1,000+ events across Pittsburgh. From intimate birthday dinners to corporate galas for hundreds — and our clients keep coming back because we make it effortless.
