In the rain. On gravel.
At Sunny Days Events, we’ve seen it all. And while we can’t promise zero stress, we can help you stay organized, focused, and maybe even enjoy the process. Here’s how to keep your head on straight while planning your big day.


🗂️ 1. Start with a Master Checklist
Before diving into details, create a master list of everything that needs to happen—from booking vendors to sending invites to confirming ferry schedules (yes, that’s a thing in Southeast Alaska).
Pro tip: Break it down by category:

• Venue & logistics
• Rentals & decor
• Food & beverage
• Guest communication
• Timeline & flow

We offer planning templates to help clients stay on track—just ask!




📅 2. Build a Realistic Timeline
Don’t try to do everything in one weekend. Space out tasks and set deadlines that reflect your actual availability.
Include buffer time for:

• Vendor responses
• Weather delays (hello, Juneau!)
• Last-minute changes

We help clients build timelines that work with local conditions—not against them.




📦 3. Keep Your Info in One Place
Whether it’s a digital folder, a physical binder, or a shared spreadsheet, centralize your event details.
What to include:

• Contracts and invoices
• Contact info for vendors and helpers
• Layouts, inspiration photos, and color palettes
• Rental lists and delivery schedules

Organization isn’t just for you—it helps your team help you better.




🧘 4. Delegate Like a Pro
You don’t have to do it all. Assign tasks to trusted friends, family, or professionals.
Examples:

• Someone to manage RSVPs
• Someone to handle decor setup
• Someone to keep you hydrated and fed on event day

We offer styling and setup services so you can focus on celebrating—not coordinating.




🧭 5. Expect the Unexpected
In Southeast Alaska, weather, terrain, and timing can shift fast. Stay flexible and build your plan around adaptability.
Our approach:

• Backup layouts for rain or wind
• Gear that works on uneven or wet ground
• Communication plans for remote or off-grid venues

We’ve learned that calm comes from preparation—not perfection.




💬 Final Thought
Event planning doesn’t have to be chaotic. With the right tools, timeline, and team, you can stay organized and actually enjoy the process. At Sunny Days Events, we help clients plan with clarity, confidence, and a little extra joy.
Feeling overwhelmed by the details?
Let us help you simplify, strategize, and celebrate.

From mossy forest floors to rocky beaches and sloped backyards, every site comes with its own personality (and quirks).
At Sunny Days Events, we’ve set up weddings, fundraisers, and elopements in some of the most stunning—and challenging—locations around town. Here’s what you should know before choosing your outdoor venue.


🌧️ 1. Wet Ground Is the Norm
Juneau is part of a temperate rainforest, which means moisture is a constant companion. Even on sunny days, the ground may be soft, spongy, or uneven.
What to consider:

• Avoid low-lying areas that collect water
• Choose sites with good drainage or natural elevation
• Plan for ground protection (think plywood paths or flooring under tables)

We always assess the site in advance and bring gear that works with—not against—the terrain.




🪨 2. Uneven Surfaces Require Smart Layouts
Flat ground is a luxury in Juneau. Most outdoor venues include slopes, dips, or tree roots that affect layout and furniture placement.
Our approach:

• Use adjustable tables and sturdy chairs (like our premium resin ones)
• Avoid placing key elements—like altars or buffets—on unstable ground
• Create natural flow with clear walkways and visual anchors

We’ve learned how to make uneven spaces feel balanced and beautiful.




💨 3. Wind Direction Matters
Juneau’s wind patterns shift with the mountains, water, and weather systems. Even sheltered spots can get gusty.
What we do:

• Orient seating and decor based on wind direction
• Remove or reposition tent sidewalls to reduce pressure
• Use weighted anchors and secure setups for all rentals

Wind isn’t a surprise—it’s part of the plan.




🌲 4. Natural Beauty = Built-In Decor
One of the best parts of Juneau’s terrain is how little you need to dress it up. Forests, beaches, and mountain views offer stunning backdrops.
Tips:

• Choose color palettes that complement the surroundings
• Use native greenery and local flowers (with hydration plans—wetland blooms need water to stay fabulous!)
• Let the view be the focal point, and keep decor minimal

Nature does the heavy lifting—your design just needs to support it.




🧭 5. Accessibility Is Key
Remote or off-grid locations may require extra planning for guests, vendors, and gear.
We help with:

• Coordinating transportation and parking
• Planning setup and teardown around tide schedules or trail access
• Packing light and choosing decor that travels well

If it takes a hike, a boat, or a four-wheel drive—we’ve got you covered.




💬 Final Thought
Juneau’s terrain is wild, wet, and wonderful—but it’s not one-size-fits-all. Choosing the right outdoor venue means understanding the land, respecting its limits, and designing with intention.
At Sunny Days Events, we help clients navigate the terrain with confidence—so your celebration feels grounded, beautiful, and totally you.

Behind every beautiful wedding, fundraiser, or elopement is a team of talented local professionals—florists, caterers, photographers, DJs, and more—each bringing their own magic to the moment.
While we specialize in rentals, planning, and coordination, our real strength lies in collaboration. Here’s how we work with Juneau’s best to make events feel effortless, personal, and unforgettable.


🌸 We Know Our People
After more than a decade in the business, we’ve built strong relationships with trusted local vendors. Some of our favorites include:

• Martha’s Flowers and Frenchie’s Flowers for stunning arrangements 
• Local caterers who understand the terrain, timing, and tight venue windows
• Photographers and DJs who know how to work around Juneau’s light, weather, and quirks

We don’t just recommend vendors—we know how they work, what they need, and how to support them.




📋 Coordination Starts with Communication
When we’re hired to coordinate or manage an event, we start by gathering key details:

• Vendor arrival times and contact info
• Setup needs and access points
• Contracts, timelines, and special requests

We use a thorough checklist to make sure everyone’s on the same page—so your celebration flows without a hitch.


Good communication isn’t just helpful—it’s essential when you only have one loading door or a two-hour setup window.




🧭 Respecting Each Other’s Roles
We’ve learned that the best events happen when vendors respect each other’s space, time, and expertise. That means:

• Scheduling arrivals in the right order (yes, the caterer should be last!)
• Helping each other pivot when layouts change or weather shifts
• Staying flexible and focused on the shared goal: a successful event

We’re not just working side by side—we’re working together.




💬 Final Thought
Vendor collaboration is the heartbeat of every great event. At Sunny Days Events, we’re proud to be part of a community of professionals who care deeply about their craft—and about each other.
Whether we’re setting up rentals, managing timelines, or simply making space for the florist to work their magic, we know that teamwork makes the celebration.

]]>Tue, 15 Sep 2026 00:00:00 GMThttps://www.sunnydaysevents.com/blog/diy-decor-vs-professional-styling-pros-and-consWhen planning an event in Southeast Alaska, one of the biggest design decisions is whether to go the DIY route or hire professionals to style your space. At Sunny Days Events, we’ve seen both approaches work beautifully—but each comes with its own set of trade-offs.
Here’s a breakdown to help you decide what’s right for your celebration.


🧵 DIY Decor: Personal, Budget-Friendly, and Hands-On
Pros:

• Cost savings: You can often save money by sourcing materials yourself or repurposing items you already own.
• Creative control: Every detail reflects your personal style, story, and vision.
• Sentimental value: Handmade touches—like centerpieces, signage, or favors—can feel deeply meaningful.

Cons:

• Time-consuming: Planning, crafting, transporting, and setting up decor takes serious time and energy.
• Logistical stress: You’ll need to coordinate setup, teardown, and troubleshooting—often on the day of your event.
• Limited resources: DIY decor may not hold up well in Southeast Alaska’s unpredictable weather or terrain.

DIY works best when you have time, help, and a clear plan—and when the venue and conditions are forgiving.




🪄 Professional Styling: Seamless, Stress-Free, and Elevated
Pros:

• Expertise: Stylists know how to design for flow, lighting, and weather—especially in Southeast Alaska.
• Efficiency: Setup and teardown are handled for you, so you can focus on enjoying your day.
• Cohesion: Professionals create a unified look that feels intentional and polished.

Cons:

• Cost: Professional styling is an investment, and may not fit every budget.
• Less hands-on: You’ll be trusting someone else to interpret your vision (though we love collaborating!).
• Availability: Stylists book up quickly—especially during peak season.

Professional styling is ideal for clients who want a cohesive look without the stress of managing every detail.




🧭 Can You Combine Both?
Absolutely. Many of our clients mix DIY elements with professional styling:

• You create handmade signage or favors, and we handle layout and lighting
• You source your own florals, and we style them into centerpieces
• You bring personal touches, and we build them into a cohesive design

The key is knowing where to invest your time—and where to let us take the reins.




💬 Final Thought
Whether you go full DIY, full professional, or somewhere in between, your event should feel like you. At Sunny Days Events, we’re here to support your vision—whether that means styling every detail or helping your handmade pieces shine.

]]>Tue, 08 Sep 2026 00:00:00 GMThttps://www.sunnydaysevents.com/blog/how-to-anchor-a-tent-safely-in-windy-conditionsPlanning an outdoor event in Southeast Alaska means planning for wind. Whether it’s a gentle breeze off the channel or a sudden gust through the trees, wind can challenge even the most beautiful setup—especially when tents are involved.
At Sunny Days Events, we’ve anchored tents in every kind of weather Juneau can throw at us. We won’t give away all our trade secrets (you’ll have to hire us for that!), but here’s what you should know about keeping your event safe, secure, and stress-free.


🧭 Location First, Anchoring Second
Before you even think about weights or straps, choose your site wisely:

• Avoid exposed ridgelines, open beaches, or wind tunnels between buildings
• Look for natural windbreaks like trees, hills, or structures
• Consider how wind moves through the space—not just where it starts

We conduct site assessments to identify risks and adjust accordingly.




🪨 Weight Isn’t Enough—It’s About Strategy
Yes, tents need weight. But it’s not just about throwing sandbags at the corners. Safe anchoring involves:

• Calculating wind load based on tent size and forecast
• Using the right combination of ballasts, stakes, and tensioning systems
• Anchoring every structural point—not just the obvious ones

We follow industry standards (like ARA guidelines) and tailor our approach to each site.




🧰 Sidewalls: Use Them Wisely
Sidewalls can help block wind—but they can also trap it. That’s why we don’t just install them and hope for the best. We:

• Assess wind direction on-site
• Remove or reposition sidewalls to reduce uplift and pressure
• Use strategic openings to let wind pass through safely

It’s not just setup—it’s airflow management.




🕒 Timing Is Everything
Wind can change hour by hour. We monitor forecasts and adjust setup times to avoid peak gusts. Sometimes that means early morning installs or last-minute layout changes.


Flexibility is key—and we build it into every timeline.




💬 Final Thought
Anchoring a tent safely in windy conditions isn’t just about gear—it’s about experience, judgment, and knowing when to pivot. At Sunny Days Events, we’ve handled everything from gentle breezes to full-blown squalls, and we know how to keep your event grounded.

]]>Tue, 01 Sep 2026 00:00:00 GMThttps://www.sunnydaysevents.com/blog/how-we-handle-last-minute-changes-like-prosNo matter how carefully you plan, weddings and events have a way of throwing curveballs. A vendor runs late. The weather shifts. A guest brings a surprise plus-one. These moments can feel chaotic—but not when you’ve got a team that knows how to pivot with grace.
At Sunny Days Events & Rentals, we’ve spent over a decade managing events in Southeast Alaska, where unpredictability is part of the landscape. Last-minute changes don’t rattle us—they activate us. Here’s how we handle them like seasoned pros.


🌧️ Weather? We’re Already Watching It
In Juneau, the forecast can change by the hour. That’s why we monitor weather patterns leading up to your event and build contingency plans into every timeline.

• We use commercial-grade tents that meet ARA standards, designed to withstand wind, rain, and even snow.
• We bring extra weights, sidewalls, and flooring options—just in case.
• If the weather shifts, we’re ready to adjust layouts, move decor, and keep your guests comfortable.

📞 Vendor Delays? We Step In
If a vendor is running late or needs help, we don’t panic—we problem-solve.

• We coordinate directly with florists, caterers, and photographers to keep things on track.
• We adjust the timeline without disrupting the flow.
• We communicate discreetly so you stay blissfully unaware of the hiccup.

🪑 Layout Changes? No Problem
Sometimes guest counts shift or seating needs change at the last minute. We come prepared.

• Extra chairs, linens, and place settings are always on standby.
• We reconfigure layouts quickly and professionally.
• We make sure everything still looks polished and intentional.

💬 Communication Is Our Superpower
When changes happen, we don’t just react—we communicate. Our team stays in constant contact with vendors, venue staff, and each other to ensure every adjustment is smooth and seamless.


You’ll never hear “we didn’t know” from us. We stay ahead of the curve.




🧯 Calm Under Pressure
We’ve handled:

• Sudden venue changes due to flooding
• Last-minute tent upgrades during windstorms
• Timeline shifts due to ferry delays
• Vendor no-shows (yes, really)

And through it all, we’ve kept our cool, protected our clients, and delivered beautiful, memorable events.


💬 Final Thought
Last-minute changes are inevitable—but stress doesn’t have to be. With Sunny Days Events & Rentals, you get a team that’s prepared, proactive, and professional. We don’t just manage the unexpected—we master it.

]]>Tue, 25 Aug 2026 00:00:00 GMThttps://www.sunnydaysevents.com/blog/why-experience-matters-what-15-years-in-events-has-taught-usFifteen years. That’s hundreds of weddings, fundraisers, memorials, retreats, and community celebrations. It’s tents in windstorms, last-minute vendor swaps, and timelines that shift with the tide. It’s laughter, learning, and a whole lot of logistics.
At Sunny Days Events & Rentals, we’ve spent the last decade and a half helping people celebrate life’s biggest moments in Southeast Alaska. And if there’s one thing we’ve learned, it’s this: experience matters.
Here’s what 15 years in the event world has taught us—and why it makes all the difference.


🧭 We Know What Works—and What Doesn’t
Experience means we’ve seen what looks beautiful, what flows smoothly, and what falls flat. We know:

• Which tent styles hold up best in Juneau’s unpredictable weather
• How to lay out a space for comfort, accessibility, and ambiance
• What rental items get overlooked (hello, trash bins and serving utensils)
• How to build a timeline that actually works

We don’t guess—we guide.


🧯 We’ve Learned to Expect the Unexpected
No two events are the same, and no plan survives contact with reality. Over the years, we’ve handled:

• Sudden venue changes due to flooding
• Ferry delays that shifted entire schedules
• Windstorms that required emergency tent reinforcement
• Vendor no-shows that we quietly covered

Experience means we don’t panic—we pivot.




🤝 We’ve Built Relationships That Matter
Fifteen years in the community means we’ve built strong connections with local vendors, venues, and service providers. We know who’s reliable, who’s creative, and who shows up when it counts. That network becomes your safety net.


🛠️ We’ve Refined Our Process
From site visits to setup, our systems are streamlined. We know how to:

• Assess terrain and weather risks
• Coordinate delivery and breakdown with minimal disruption
• Communicate clearly with clients and vendors
• Keep events running smoothly behind the scenes

Our process is built on experience—and it shows.


💬 We’ve Learned That Listening Is Everything
After 15 years, we’ve learned that the most important skill isn’t logistics—it’s listening. Every client has a story, a vision, and a set of priorities. Our job is to hear them, honor them, and bring them to life.


💬 Final Thought
Experience isn’t just about time—it’s about trust. It’s about knowing that when things get complicated, your team has the skills, the systems, and the heart to handle it. At Sunny Days Events & Rentals, we’re proud of our 15-year journey—and even more excited for what’s ahead.

]]>Mon, 17 Aug 2026 22:00:00 GMThttps://www.sunnydaysevents.com/blog/planning-events-in-remote-or-off-grid-locationThere’s something magical about hosting an event off the beaten path. Whether it’s a mountaintop elopement, a forest fundraiser, or a beachside ceremony, remote locations offer unmatched beauty and intimacy. But they also come with unique challenges—and that’s where Sunny Days Events shines.
We’ve planned events in some of Southeast Alaska’s most breathtaking (and hard-to-reach) places. Here’s what we’ve learned—and how we help clients pull it off with style and confidence.


🚐 Logistics Are Everything
Remote locations require extra planning for transportation, setup, and teardown. We help clients:

• Coordinate ferry schedules, floatplane arrivals, or trail access
• Plan for gear transport—including tables, chairs, catering supplies, and decor
• Build buffer time into every step of the timeline

If it takes a boat, a hike, or a four-wheel drive to get there—we’ve probably done it.




🔌 Power & Water: Plan Ahead
Off-grid means no outlets, no running water, and no backup systems unless you bring them. We help clients:

• Source generators for lighting, sound, or catering needs
• Plan water access for florals, dishwashing, and sanitation
• Choose decor and equipment that doesn’t rely on electricity

We’ve learned which items thrive off-grid—and which ones to leave behind.




🌿 Design That Works with Nature
Remote locations are stunning on their own. We design with intention, using:

• Lightweight decor that’s easy to transport and set up
• Native greenery and local flowers (with hydration plans—wetland blooms need water to stay fabulous!)
• Layouts that respect the terrain and enhance the view

We don’t fight the landscape—we highlight it.




🧯 Safety First
In off-grid settings, safety is non-negotiable. We help clients:

• Prepare for weather shifts, wildlife, and medical access
• Pack emergency kits and communication tools
• Choose setups that are secure in wind, rain, or uneven ground

We’ve weathered squalls, surprise bears, and sideways rain—and we plan accordingly.




💬 Final Thought
Planning an event in a remote or off-grid location is a bold choice—and a beautiful one. With the right team, thoughtful logistics, and a flexible mindset, your celebration can be unforgettable in all the best ways.
At Sunny Days Events, we specialize in making wild places feel welcoming, safe, and stunning.

]]>Mon, 10 Aug 2026 23:00:00 GMThttps://www.sunnydaysevents.com/blog/my-why-the-heart-behind-sunny-days-eventsI started Sunny Days Events in 2012 because I loved the planning, the logistics, and the joy of helping people celebrate life’s biggest moments. Weddings, fundraisers, elopements, retirements—each one is a puzzle, and I’ve always loved putting the pieces together.
But building a business in Juneau taught me something early on: our couples are incredibly DIY. They lean on friends and family to coordinate their weddings, often skipping professional help in favor of community support. It’s beautiful—and sometimes chaotic.


🧭 Why I Still Believe in Wedding Management
Even in a DIY town, I believe every wedding deserves some form of professional management. Not because couples can’t do it themselves—but because they shouldn’t have to.
Your friends and family should be celebrating with you, not running timelines or troubleshooting vendor delays. A good coordinator, armed with the right information (yes, we have a thorough checklist!), can pull off your vision without bothering you with the little details.


You get to be present. We get to handle the rest.




🪑 Why I Offer Full-Service Support
Over time, I’ve shifted focus. I don’t do as much planning or coordination as I originally imagined—but I’m still the only business in town that offers:

• Full-service rentals
• Event coordination
• Professional planning support

It’s a niche that fills a real need in Juneau. And while I’ve explored selling or partnering in the past, I’ve had to walk away from those opportunities. Why? Because they didn’t share my vision—or my commitment to this community.


👩‍👧‍👦 Why I’m Still Here
I’m also a single mother of two incredible kids—one a varsity dancer, the other thriving in robotics and e-sports. I work full-time as a computer programmer for the Alaska Legislature, and I run Sunny Days Events because it helps me afford their college tuition and support their dreams.
It’s a lot. But it’s worth it.
When they finish their education, I’ll likely revisit the idea of selling the business—to the right buyer, someone who understands what Sunny Days Events means to this town and to me.


💬 Final Thought
Sunny Days Events isn’t just a business. It’s a labor of love, a community service, and a lifeline for my family. I’m here because I believe in what we offer—and because I’ve seen firsthand how a well-run event can bring people together in unforgettable ways.
Thank you for trusting me with your celebrations.
Whether you’re picking up chairs or planning a wedding, I’m honored to be part of your story.


Because I love many Sunny Days and many Events—even the ones that start with a checklist and end with a dance floor.

]]>Tue, 04 Aug 2026 00:00:00 GMThttps://www.sunnydaysevents.com/blog/how-to-incorporate-local-culture-into-your-event-designIn Southeast Alaska, culture isn’t just something you observe—it’s something you feel. From the land to the language, the art to the ancestry, this region holds stories that deserve to be honored. At Sunny Days Events, we believe that incorporating local culture into your event design isn’t just beautiful—it’s meaningful.
Whether you're planning a wedding, fundraiser, elopement, or community gathering, here are ways to respectfully and creatively celebrate Southeast Alaska’s cultural richness.


🌿 Start with the Land
The landscape here is sacred—towering trees, misty mountains, and coastal waters. Let it guide your design:

• Use native greenery like cedar, salal, or spruce in your decor
• Choose color palettes inspired by the forest, ocean, and sky
• Embrace natural textures like wood, stone, and linen

The land sets the tone—your design can echo its quiet power.




💐 Feature Local Flowers (With a Little Extra Care)
Southeast Alaska is home to stunning native blooms—fireweed, lupine, wild roses, and more. Incorporating these flowers adds authenticity and seasonal charm to your event.
But here’s the catch:
We live in a wetlands-rich environment, and many local flowers are delicate and water-dependent. Without proper hydration and handling, they can wilt quickly—especially indoors or in warm setups.
Our approach:

• Use native flowers as accents, not centerpieces
• Combine them with hardy blooms from local florists
• Keep arrangements hydrated and shaded during setup

We work closely with florists like Martha’s Flowers and Frenchie’s Flowers to blend local beauty with lasting impact.




🎨 Highlight Local Art & Craftsmanship
Southeast Alaska is home to incredible artists, especially from Tlingit, Haida, and Tsimshian communities. Consider:

• Featuring local carvings, weavings, or prints in your decor
• Using locally made pottery, signage, or textiles
• Hiring cultural performers or musicians to share their traditions

We’re happy to help connect you with artists whose work adds depth and authenticity.




🍽️ Celebrate Local Flavors
Food is culture. Work with caterers who source locally and offer regional favorites:

• Smoked salmon, berry dishes, or seaweed salad
• Wild game or traditional stews
• Locally roasted coffee or herbal teas

Even your menu can tell a story.




💬 Invite Storytelling
Whether through signage, ceremony, or conversation, storytelling brings culture to life:

• Share the history of your venue or the land it sits on
• Include family traditions or ancestral acknowledgments
• Use decor to reflect your personal connection to the region

Events become more powerful when they carry meaning.




💬 Final Thought
Incorporating local culture into your event design isn’t about checking a box—it’s about creating a space that feels rooted, respectful, and real. At Sunny Days Events, we help clients design celebrations that honor Southeast Alaska’s beauty and heritage—while staying true to their own story.
