Entertaining Diva

Hello! I'm Wanda Simone, and I'm thrilled you're here! I've had a passion for hosting gatherings for as long as I can recall. In high school, I kicked things off by throwing Super Bowl parties. Since then, I've developed a love for planning events that are not only enjoyable but also visually stunning. Some might call my style "extra" or "over the top" because I tend to incorporate a theme into almost every party I organize.
