Hi, I’m Jennifer
Creator of The Dessert Course
I’ve helped thousands of moms plan their children’s birthday parties. I am an Atlanta-based wife and mom of twin girls. Since 2011, I’ve been making it easier for moms to create parties their kids declare “the best ever!”
Before my daughters’ first birthday party, I did what moms everywhere do: I walked around and around the party store, and left with a pack of paper plates and napkins, and a lot of disappointment. I was not inspired. At all.
It took a few years of teaching myself everything I didn’t know that day in the party store, but by my daughters’ third birthday, guests were saying that I should be a party planner. I finally decided that my friends might be on to something.
Now, I’ve packaged everything I’ve taught myself into The Dessert Course, so you can plan the best dessert table ever.
