Everyday Event Planner

A party should be as much fun to plan as it is to attend. - Sabrina & Joni

About Us

Sabrina Hill and Joni Russell are authors of The Everything Baby Shower Book and partners in Stratagem Events, a successful full service event planning business based in Silicon Valley.

For the last decade and a half, we have planned events for many major companies in Silicon Valley. We cut our event teeth on dotcom parties and high-tech launch events. Our clients have included Lucent Technology, Silicon Graphics, Inc., LSI Logic, Netscape/AOL, PeopleSoft, Hewlett-Packard, Legato Systems, and Kaiser Permanente. We have taught event planning at the Professional Development Center of San Jose State University.

In addition to running our event planning business, we are mothers and wives, both happily married with three children each. With hundreds of birthday parties, weddings, and showers on our personal resumes, we figure we have baked, frosted, ordered or eaten 10,000 cupcakes. We live two miles apart in Los Gatos, California.
