East of Ellie, an events co. is an award-winning woman-owned agency. We are your go-to team for corporate events and internal meetings.
We are natural dreamers fiercely dedicated to successful (and smart) events.
Kindness
Kindness Mission
SMART
We take a strategically smart approach to our events by creating innovative guest experiences. We embrace social responsibility with sustainable initiatives all while giving back.
KIND
We make it our mission to pursue every opportunity to be kind. We handle the how. By taking the guesswork out, we bridge the gap between our doing good goal and our events.
CONSCIOUS
We recognize that events can be wasteful. This awareness fuels our passion to use our resources to reverse the negative and positively impact those in the local community.
Highlights From Our Smart Events
REDUCE
Our goal is to reduce waste from the get-go. Invest in branded products that are already made of recycled material or ones without excessive packaging. See how we did just that for bareMinerals.
UPCYCLE
Repurpose and upcycle materials to create a completely unique on-brand guest experience. Check out how we created a custom bar for Goodway using their products and existing materials.
REPURPOSE
Replace one-time-use paper products with alternative elements for a feel-good finale. See how the use of seed paper started as an escort card and ended as a donation to the GrowNYC organization.
PAY IT FORWARD
Our partnership with Repeat Roses ensures our event florals are donated to local hospitals, nursing homes + shelters to spread kindness further than we could imagine possible.
COMMUNITY
Jumping into a crisis is a part of our DNA - especially when our community needs it the most. We have partnered with Mask Makers, Unite to do our part in the fight against COVID-19 in Connecticut.
VOLUNTEER
EOE is no stranger to our community, and our team loves volunteering together. Occasionally pausing our event operations to get out and support the greater good is at the top of our to-do list.
EMPOWER
Gifting the East of Ellie way means we handpick items that are sustainability sourced, do-good, and support economic empowerment for women and artisans in underserved communities.
