hi, party person!
I’m Carolyn, the founder of Stranger Works: an event planning studio for people who think the best kind of party is a really good day with their friends.
That’s why no event is too intimate- or too interesting! - for Stranger Works. I’ve planned everything from a lawn tournament to birthday murder mysteries to winter wonderland bachelorettes. And thanks to a great network of vendors and venues in NYC, there’s plenty more to do!
So bring a half-idea, a stranger idea, or something you’ve always secretly wanted to pull off.
We’ll figure out what matters to you, and make a real occasion of it.
Warmly,
CZ☆
our values
Your Fun is the Objective!
I love events because each one is entirely unique. From oyster cruises to retro ice cream wine bars, we’ll explore which ideas make you light up— and design your experience around that!

Personality > Spectacle
Let’s focus on you— and not everyone else! As a full-time event planner, I’ll give my full attention towards your event, and create an experience that is tailored to your needs, and serves your vision.

Logistics is Serious Business
Between timelines, schedules, communications, and backup plans for my backup plan, my motto for events is preparation makes perfect—and everything I do behind the scenes is to make sure your occasion runs flawlessly.
