about

Trista

Owner / Founder

Hi! I am the Owner/Founder of BTS Event Management as well as the lead designer and wedding/event planner. Born and raised in a small town in Wisconsin, I knew that my journey would not end there. I made the decision to attend the University of Arizona where my love for event coordination first originated. I began interning with a company who specialized in event management for non-profit organizations. I was fortunate enough to land a position with the company and instantly became obsessed with the wedding and event industry. Soon after, I started BTS and haven’t looked back since. This is my dream and I am proud to say that I am responsible for having it come true!

You’ll rarely see me with out lipstick, coffee or wine…(yeah super cliche, but I’m just that gal, lol). I rarely sleep and love creating cutting edge, unique wedding designs late at night. My why and reason for pursuing this awesome journey are my two crazy but beautiful kids, a whole decade apart, who keep me on my toes and never allow me to slow down enough to realize that I probably actually do need sleep every now and again.

Thanks for taking the time to read about me! Be sure to check out my personal Instagram page to see this all in real life @trista.natashia

Lead Wedding Planner

Hi! I am a lead planner for BTS Event Management as well as the head of our Marketing and PR. When I am not planning events and weddings, I am editing and producing our podcast, The Aisle, writing bridal fashion blogs and posting to our instagram. I was born and raised in the sunny and hot state of Arizona and attended Arizona State University where I was on the Spirit Squad. Since I was young, I wanted to own my own bridal store. I was in love with bridal fashion and I just had to do something about it. Soon after college, I was fortunately presented with an opportunity to join BTS. I instantly fell in love with their brand and how they too loved bridal fashion and knew it was the best thing for me. I could not be more blessed to be a part of BTS with Trista and Tia.

Aside from wedding planning… I am always seen with my triple espresso from Starbucks and my dog, Kota. My life is crazy but I wouldn’t change it for the world. I recently moved to Houston and am loving life out here. I am a huge foodie and would love to be a food critic as a side job. If I am not in AZ or Houston, I am probably at a beach somewhere.

Thanks for getting to know all about me! Check out my personal instagram @stormhulsebus to learn more!

Lead Wedding Planner + Head of Graphic Design

Hi! I am a lead planner and the head graphic designer for BTS. I was born and raised in Phoenix, Arizona and graduated from the University of Arizona in 2018 so you can assume I love living here! Growing up, I knew I wanted to do something creative so I was excited to start my career in event planning in 2020 and for the opportunity to bring my Bachelor’s Degree in Graphic Design to BTS to create unique designs for our Save the Dates, invitations, and our social media. I am unbelievably blessed for this crazy ride, to work with Trista and Storm, and to create amazing connections with everyone around us.

Other than my job, I love to take classes at Scottsdale Bodi, play volleyball and any other intramural sports, travel with friends and family, re-watch Gossip Girl a million times, and keep my mind creative with painting and sketching. My favorite meal is a bagel (not sure if that can be considered as a meal but I sure do) and my favorite drink is a glass of Cabernet Sauvignon.

Thank you for reading all about me. Check out my personal Instagram @tschmittenberg to follow along with my life and BTS fun!

Lead Wedding Planner

Hi! I am a lead planner for BTS. I was born and raised in Phoenix, Arizona. I graduated from Arizona State University in 2021. While attending ASU I pursued my passion for cheer and dance on the ASU Spirit Squad. Go Devils! Aside from my commitment to cheering for Sun Devil Athletics I was devoted to my education. I graduated with a Bachelors of Science in Business Management with a Minor in Special Event Management. My passion for the Event industry grew during my junior year of college, which landed me an internship with BTS my last year of college. After a couple months of intense training on all things Weddings I joined the team full time. I am so excited to continue this journey with the ladies of BTS while connecting with you all!

Aside from Wedding planning you can find me at the gym. I am obsessed with all things food, health and fitness. My alter ego is a body builder, but my love for Cold Stone Ice Cream is too strong! I enjoy sunset hikes, quality time with family, and dates to the movie theater.

Thank you for getting to know me. Check out my personal Instagram @kenedywbrown to learn more about me and my journey with BTS!
