   Anyone that has ever tried to plan a party knows that helping people have fun is hard work! The Red Cake Events, operated by Heather Day and her team specializes in the sort of hard work that makes events feel elegant, and festivals look effortless. When you are planning the Big Day, bring in the professionals.With almost 20 years of experience in event planning, graphic design, strategic communications and logistic management, The Red Cake Events team organizes events in and around south Louisiana and the Baton Rouge area that are innovative, creative, and unique. The immersive experience The Red Cake Events brings to each client and guest has earned this company the reputation of superior event planning. We cater to everything: from festivals, sporting events, weddings, fundraisers, galas, large holiday parties to kid’s Bar/Bat Mitzvahs. The Red Cake treats every event like a work of art. Heather and team consider every detail and element of an event with the final masterpiece in mind to create stunningly unique experiences. The Red Cake believes that everyone in the planning process should be heard: from the client, to the vendors, to the creative team, to the photographer, to the musicians. They achieve this by having strong relationships with vendors, musicians, community organizations and local stakeholders. The Red Cake sources most of its products from local craftspeople and businesses. Keeping it at home keeps quality high. Local relationships mean long-term commitments to excellence. Whether it is local printmakers working a letterpress to produce unique invitations or local chefs that wander the farmer’s market for the freshest, seasonal food, the team at The Red Cake pay attention to the details. Paying attention to the details is what makes great events. By listening and collaborating, The Red Cake’s events are truly top tier, well-run affairs.
