Getting to Know Emily Weiss & The Weiss Planner

Written by Emily Weiss | May 22, 2026 3:05:04 PM

Let's start with: it's pronounced "Wise" - as in "The Wise Owl". 🦉
The title makes a little more sense, doesn't it?

Now we can continue onto the actual getting to know me part.

I’m Emily Weiss, a full-time digital marketing specialist in Canton, Ohio. I came up with the idea for The Weiss Planner for two reasons:

  1. I have always enjoyed planning themed events.
  2. I have been told for a very long time that I'm a great gift-giver.

So I took these two similar interests together and thus, The Weiss Planner was born!

The Party Planning Side 🎉

I am always down for a themed event! From picking out the perfect outfit/costume and the right decorations to designing the invitations and more, I truly enjoy bringing a theme to life. I'm also a spreadsheet fanatic, so I enjoy organizing my thoughts and ideas into one place of truth (just ask my husband about our vacation packing lists).

How does this benefit you as a reader of this blog? Although my actual job title isn't a party/event planner, I'm here to help you:

  • dream up a theme.
  • help you find the right components for your party/event theme.
  • explore new ideas you never thought of before.

The Gift Idea Side 🎁

I'm the type of person who will find something for your birthday and hold on to it until the time comes (even if it's six months away). I'm also the type of person who, when I'm scrolling on Amazon and see something I think you'll like or need, I'll add it to a Wish List I have dedicated just for you.

It's the thought that counts, as the saying goes. Now, of course, you know your people best. For The Weiss Planner, I am here to help guide you into the right direction for finding that perfect gift (and helping you stay away from just buying a gift card).

Searching for that special gift right now? I'd love to help!

Why I Do It 💝

I truly enjoy giving people experiences and gifts that they'll never forget. So if I can help others find a great party theme or the perfect gift, why not write about it?
