You Planned It.
Now Let Someone Else Run It.

The Day-Of Darling steps in as your personal right hand so you can actually be present with your guests — not chasing vendors, managing timelines, or handling the dozen small things that always come up on the day.

From setup through the final moments, every detail is handled quietly and efficiently so your celebration feels effortless from the inside out.

What Your Day Looks Like With a Darling

When you book an Event Personal Assistant, you get someone who arrives before your guests do and doesn't leave until the day is done. Here's what that looks like in practice:

✓ Arrive early to assist with setup and final touches
✓ Coordinate with vendors and keep everyone on timeline
✓ Handle last-minute errands and unexpected needs
✓ Manage the flow of the event so you never have to
✓ Assist guests and anticipate needs before they're spoken
✓ Keep you calm, on schedule, and fully in the moment
✓ Assist with breakdown and wrap-up at the end of the event

You focus on your guests. I focus on everything else.

This Service Was Made For You If…

✦ You planned your own event and just need someone to run it on the day

✦ You've hosted before and spent the whole time working instead of celebrating

✦ You want everything to flow smoothly without micromanaging every detail yourself

✦ You're hosting something meaningful — a baby shower, a birthday, a celebration — and you actually want to be present for it

✦ You don't need a full event planner — you need a calm, capable right hand who shows up, handles it, and makes the day feel easy

  • The Day-Of Darling is based in Los Angeles and primarily serves clients throughout LA County and surrounding areas. If your event is outside that range, reach out — depending on location, we may be able to make it work.

  • No problem. Additional time is billed at the same hourly rate. We'll confirm before the event that a card is on file so there's no interruption if the day extends naturally.

  • For most event bookings, you'll work directly with Kelinda. For larger events or dates where demand is high, a trained Darling from the team may be assigned. Either way, you'll know exactly who is coming before your event day — and they will have been personally briefed on your details.

  • Reach out and we'll do our best. Availability isn't guaranteed for short-notice requests, but if the date is open, we'll make it happen. The earlier you book, the better — especially for weekends and peak seasons.

  • $35 / hour · 3-hour minimum

    Every booking includes a brief consultation call so I understand your event, your priorities, and exactly how I can show up best for you.

  • Baby showers, birthdays, bridal events, engagement parties, graduation celebrations, private dinners, and intimate gatherings of most kinds. If you're not sure whether your event is a fit, just ask.

  • You don't need a polished plan — you just need a date, a rough sense of what you need, and the desire to not manage it all yourself. We'll sort out the details together on your consultation call.
