From the engagement ring to the ‘I do’s,’ Renee has walked dozens of couples down the aisle and into their future with a fabulous celebration. Renee launched her second business, Party Host Helpers, in 2014 in the Philadelphia area. She realized so many of her hosts were too busy with prepping, serving and cleaning, they usually missed their whole party. Renee developed the idea of using servers and bartenders to assist at bridal showers, holiday dinners, graduation parties and more. The helpers do it all – greet guests, mix drinks and unload dishwashers. But once Party Host Helpers began, the company pique interest outside of Philadelphia. Now, Party Host Helpers is in more than 30 cities from New York City, to West Palm Beach to Los Angeles. And continues to grow.

Renee is involved in many networking organizations and is a founding member of Femfessionals, a Philadelphia based women’s networking group. She is a member and sits on the board for Entrepreneurs Organization – a global professional organization. She is also a member of NAWBO and local chambers.
