Hi, I’m Erica Wright — event planner, experience creator, and founder of Kinetic Occasions LLC. For more than a decade, I’ve been bringing people together through thoughtfully planned celebrations, gatherings, and unforgettable experiences.
Friendsgiving has become one of my favorite traditions, and after years of planning group celebrations, I created The Friendsgiving Blueprint to make hosting one easier for everyone else. And despite the name, it’s not just for Friendsgiving! Use it for group trips, birthday getaways, family gatherings, girls’ trips and more. It’s filled with the same practical planning strategies, timelines, budgeting tools, and lessons I use to take an event from an idea to an experience people remember.
Whether you're planning a gathering, celebration, or group getaway, my goal is simple: help you spend less time stressing over the details and more time enjoying the experience with your people.
