Chattanooga, Tennessee
Over thirty years of celebrations
From intimate gatherings to grand celebrations, our dedicated team transforms your vision into a seamless, unforgettable experience.
54 Events & Planning is a small team with deep roots in the Tennessee Valley. We plan the day, cook the food, arrange the flowers and pour the drinks — which means fewer vendors to chase and one number to call when something needs answering.
We have worked barns, backyards, church halls and country clubs. Whatever the venue, the job is the same: make the day feel effortless for the people living it.

What We Do
Weddings are what we’re known for, not all we do
Birthdays, corporate events, retirements, showers and memorials — the same planning, catering, florals and bar service, sized to the occasion and to your budget.

From “Yes!” to “I Do,” we handle every detail. Full-service wedding planning, day-of coordination, and everything in between to ensure your big day is flawless.

Private Parties & Celebrations
Birthdays, anniversaries, retirements, showers and graduations — we create memorable experiences for life’s cherished milestones.

Corporate Events
Elevate your brand with professional event planning for conferences, galas, product launches, and team-building events.

Memorials & Celebrations of Life
Receptions and luncheons arranged with care, and at short notice when a family needs them. We take care of the food and the room so you can be with the people who matter.
- 05
Event Design & Styling
We specialize in crafting breathtaking themes, decor, and experiences tailored to your style.

Catering & Bar Service
From grazing tables and plated dinners to a full barrel bar, we handle the food and drink in-house — no outside caterer to coordinate. Menus are built around your budget, not the other way around.

Trays delivered ready to serve, set up and left with you — nothing to return. The most affordable way to feed a crowd when you don’t need staff on site.
