Christina Whitney Bober
Owner & Creative Director, Christina Whitney Events
I’ve had the privilege of building a company that reflects both my passion and my name. A graduate of East Carolina University and The Culinary Institute of America, my journey began in some of New York City’s most prestigious restaurants, where I honed not only my culinary skills but also my deep understanding of exceptional customer service and beverage expertise. This experience introduced me to some of the finest professionals in the industry and ultimately led me to the exciting world of Events. It was here that I found my true calling—not behind the scenes, but front and center. Combining my knowledge of kitchen operations with a host's vision, I realized I could bring that expertise to the world of events, and that’s how Christina Whitney Events was born.
I’m a Type A organizer at heart—spreadsheet creator, meticulous planner, therapist, and a true team player who thrives on crafting memorable events for my clients. What truly sets me apart is my commitment to building personal, meaningful relationships with every client.
I believe in being there every step of the way, guiding you through the process, answering questions, and overcoming any challenges along the way. The joy of seeing your unique vision come to life is what fuels my passion, and I take pride in ensuring that every detail is executed perfectly.
When I’m not busy planning, you can find me in the kitchen, cooking up delicious meals for family and friends, or hosting holiday gatherings. I love exploring new restaurants, wines, and cocktails, always seeking out the next culinary adventure. Above all, I’m a proud mom and wife, cherishing family time, recharging on my SoulCycle bike, or taking peaceful walks through our local park. Life’s simple joys are what I hold dear, and I treasure every adventure with my little family.

Senior Event Specialist, CHRISTINA Whitney Events
I’m a trained pastry chef turned event planner, blending my passion for creativity, organization, and meaningful moments at Christina Whitney Events. Alongside my best friend, I get to lead the design and creative details for weddings, ensuring each celebration reflects the couple’s unique story.
My favorite part of the wedding day is the first reveal of the reception room—seeing the couple’s reaction, followed by the joy and awe of the guests as they take in all the special touches we’ve worked so hard on.
That moment of excitement is why I love this job. And, yes, I still have a soft spot for judging cake flavors (the pastry chef in me is never far behind).
When I’m not planning, you’ll find me hosting gatherings at home, baking something sweet for my family, or enjoying time with the people I love. Every event I plan is an opportunity to create something truly unforgettable.
