to work with someone who gets you and your vision, so that you can be completely confident day-of that everything will be executed perfectly.
Our approach to planning a stunning, memorable experience for everyone

History
Owner and Lead Planner, Donna Phillips Wood,
began planning weddings in Dallas over ten years ago
while in law school at SMU. Between studying for the bar
and navigating legal internships, she was hosting over-the-top
Christmas parties and planning baby showers for fellow students.
Even while working as an attorney, Donna continued to be drawn
to event planning, where her analytical skills married perfectly
with her innate creativity and discerning eye.
In 2012, Donna left her legal career to launch Much Obliged Events,
and has since also worked concurrently as a Venue Coordinator
in North Dallas, building strong professional relationships
with trusted event vendors throughout the metroplex.
This dual background gives Donna and her clients
a unique advantage in working with other venues
around the area.
