Hi, I’m Arika!

I’m so glad you came to see what this party is all about. I am the heart and hands behind Posh Party Playbook - your guide for hosting the perfect party.

I’m a midwest girl at heart, but I love the energy of the big city. I’ve called Chicago home for nearly 5 years, and I don’t plan on leaving anytime soon - the food, the people, the culture, what’s not to love! I’m a sucker for anything sweet, a night owl, and a candle fanatic. I like to find the silver lining in every moment, but I fully believe a little sarcasm is the key to living a fulfilled life. After all, my grandmother always says, “What’s life without a little fun?

And what better way to have fun than to throw a little party!

About Me

Hi, I’m Arika!

I’m so glad you came to see what this party is all about. I am the heart and hands behind Posh Party Playbook - your guide for hosting the perfect party.

I’m a midwest girl at heart, but I love the energy of the big city. I’ve called Chicago home for nearly 5 years, and I don’t plan on leaving anytime soon - the food, the people, the culture, what’s not to love! I’m a sucker for anything sweet, a night owl, and a candle fanatic. I like to find the silver lining in every moment, but I fully believe a little sarcasm is the key to living a fulfilled life. After all, my grandmother always says, “What’s life without a little fun?

And what better way to have fun than to throw a little party!

How it all began

I graduated from Indiana University (go Hoosiers!) and began my career building brands through advertising. Along the way I learned a lot about creative planning, strategic planning and production planning. Did I mention planning? My love for planning in my professional life and party planning in my personal life is what sparked my passion to start Posh Party Playbook.

The Posh Party Playbook mission is simple: share quick tips and tricks for easy ways to elevate your next party. So, if you’re like me, and you’re always looking for an excuse to turn a gathering into a party, I’m glad we met.

Today

Posh Party Playbook is a lifestyle and entertaining blog that has expanded to include event planning and design services. I’m so excited to bring my planning experience into the mix and help you all turn your special moments into reality!

Cheers to planning our next party - may it be the best one yet!
