Orpha Events

Orpha Events focuses on inspired designs and flawlessly executed events to create a celebratory space. The creative team comes together with a variety of backgrounds to bring you high-quality design and bespoke experiences that authentically reflect you and your values.
 
Founder Marisa Vrooman draws on her creative background as a New York commercial production designer and set decorator (you may have seen her work in the big budget Hollywood films 27 Dresses and Across the Universe). After three years living in Barcelona and five years in New York, Marisa returned to Charlottesville to raise her family and launched Orpha — named for her grandmother, who embodied love, joy and comfort — in 2010.
 
The Orpha event specialists team includes no less than three assistants on your wedding day, working together efficiently, effectively and in an extremely responsive manner. The Orpha Full-Service Design & Planning package calls on a network of top vendors, pulls in your artistic vision and a custom hands-on design and planning approach.
