Every Detail, Savored.
Personal Entertaining & Party Partner
Savor & Sundry offers in-home hospitality and event coordination
for the gatherings across Long Island.
From dinner parties and birthdays to girls' nights, holiday celebrations, and special occasions, I partner with you on with planning, preparation, and details so you can enjoy the people you've brought together. Not every gathering needs a full-service event planner. Sometimes you just need someone to handle the details you don't have time for..
You've always been the host.
This time, be the guest.
About Carrie
I’ve always thought of myself as a memory maker.
I love what happens when people gather. The conversations, the laughter, the music, the food, the little things someone notices and the things they may not notice at all, but somehow make the whole experience feel right.
I believe events give us a reason to pause and be present with one another. To celebrate, connect, learn, remember and simply enjoy being together. Whether it's a few people around a table or hundreds in a room, I want people to feel welcomed, considered and like they belong.
I grew up in hospitality, where I learned early on that taking care of people is about so much more than service. It's about paying attention, anticipating needs and making people feel comfortable and cared for.
I've also spent more than 30 years planning and managing corporate events, leading teams, coordinating countless details and bringing ideas to life. Along the way, I developed my own 5D Method—Discover, Determine, Design, Deliver and Debrief—which continues to guide how I approach every gathering.
Today, I bring both worlds together. My experience as an event professional and a server has taught me that a great gathering isn't just about how everything looks. It's about how everything feels, how it flows and how well people are taken care of.
That's what I love about this work: creating the space for people to be together and making it possible for the person who brought them together to be part of it, too.
Why Savor & Sundry
SAVOR is about being there for it.
Hearing the music. Tasting the food. Noticing the flowers. Having the conversation. Laughing with the people you invited. It’s being fully present for the experience you brought everyone together to share, not spending it watching the clock, checking on the food or wondering what needs to happen next.
SUNDRY is everything that makes that possible.
It’s all the little things: the timing, the lighting, the music, the food, the flowers, the flow of the room and the dozens of details happening behind the scenes. Individually, they may seem small. Together, they shape how an event looks, feels and is remembered.
My job is to think about those details, anticipate what’s needed and bring them together with intention so you don’t have to.
That’s Savor & Sundry: all the details taken care of, so you can be there for what matters.
Every detail, savored.
Services
When you close your eyes, what do you see?
It’s the first question I ask every client. I want to know how you picture your gathering: how it looks, and how it feels. Your answer shows me what matters most to you, what you want to create, and where you need me.
From there, we choose the level of support that fits. Some hosts want a plan and a trusted second opinion. Others want me coordinating the vendors and confirming the details. Some want me there on the day, running the event, so they can be the guest.
Whatever you choose, it starts with what you saw when you closed your eyes.
You Host. I handle the details.
You love hosting parties, you just can't do everything on your own and still be a guest at your own gathering. Think of me as another you: tell me what needs to happen, and I'll take it from there: prepping, setting up, serving, cleaning up, and handling the details while you enjoy the party.
