Today we’d like to introduce you to Brittany James.
Hi Brittany, can you start by introducing yourself? We’d love to learn more about how you got to where you are today?
I started Save the Date Events by BK in 2020, born from my passion for organizing workplace events, potlucks, and being the go-to person for family and friends’ gatherings. What began as a love for bringing people together has grown into a full-fledged business built on consistency, creativity, and commitment.
My journey hasn’t been easy—far from it. But I never gave up. From creating non-stop content and marketing myself at every opportunity, to using social media to tell my story, I stayed grounded in my purpose: to show the world events through my eyes.
I’m proudly born and raised in Jackson, MS—a place that shaped me. And while I’ll always carry that with me, my vision has expanded. I am making a new home in cities like Houston, Dallas, Atlanta, and across the Southern Coast. These places have embraced my brand, and I’m excited to continue growing, connecting, and creating unforgettable experiences wherever I go.
We all face challenges, but looking back would you describe it as a relatively smooth road?
The road of an entrepreneur is anything but easy. From the outside, people might see the glam, the polished events, the pretty content—but they don’t always see the late nights, the tears, the self-doubt, or the mental battles that come with pushing yourself to keep going.
For me, self-doubt has been one of the hardest struggles. I’ve always been someone who wanted to be liked, who wanted everyone to feel what I felt and see my vision exactly as I did. I thought success meant gaining approval, and I tied my worth to how people responded to my work.
But over time, I’ve learned one of the most valuable lessons: to value myself first. Your worth isn’t based on likes, bookings, or outside validation. It’s rooted in knowing who you are and staying true to your purpose. The right clients—the ones who see you, respect your craft, and align with your vision—will always find you.
I’m still growing. Still learning. But I’m proud of how far I’ve come, and I’m even more excited for where I’m going.
Thanks – so what else should our readers know about your work and what you’re currently focused on?
I’m a luxury event planner and coordinator with a passion for turning my clients’ visions into unforgettable experiences—minus the stress. Whether it’s an intimate baby shower, an elegant birthday celebration, or a full-scale wedding, I specialize in creating seamless, stunning events that allow my clients to actually enjoy the moment.
Lately, weddings have truly become my specialty, and I take pride in making every detail reflect love, beauty, and individuality.
What I’m most proud of? Never giving up on my dreams. Building this business hasn’t been easy, but my drive, professionalism, and eye for excellence have allowed me to create a brand my audience trusts—not just for the events I plan, but for the way I show up: with grace, style, and purpose.
At Save the Date Events by BK, it’s not just about planning events—it’s about creating experiences that feel like magic.
Is there anything else you’d like to share with our readers?
I want my audience to know that this isn’t just a business for me — it’s a calling. Every event I plan is done with intention, love, and a commitment to excellence. I don’t just create beautiful moments; I create stress-free experiences where you can truly enjoy every second of your special day.
I want you to know that behind the luxury and the polished events is someone who has faced self-doubt, pushed through challenges, and refused to give up. I’ve built this brand from the ground up through consistency, passion, and a belief that your vision matters.
When you work with Save the Date Events by BK, you’re not just getting a planner — you’re getting a partner who listens, who cares, and who goes above and beyond to make your moment unforgettable.
