Hi There! My name is Amber. I’m a professional party planner and the founder of the event company To Be Hosted. I started To Be Hosted in 2017 as a supper club in New York City. Since then, I’ve planned countless dinner parties, cocktail parties, premiere screenings, launches, and special events for incredible individuals and brands. After years or working in events, I started While Entertaining, formally a magazine, presently a newsletter for (dinner) party people seeking fresh ideas and inspiration for more enlivened gatherings. In While Entertaining, you will find recommendations, tips, and how-to’s from my community of party professionals, chefs, makers, and creators. We’ll help you enjoy the planning and the party. 

Along the way, I’ll challenge you to get organized, embrace new voices, and appreciate simple, soulful details. Your journey to becoming the hostess with the mostest starts here.
