ORIGIN STORY
Aly has shared that she had an entrepreneurial spirit even as a girl. As a young woman, her career path was moving toward journalism, but in 2007, she veered off-track and fell in love with the world of event planning. Aly attended the Art Institute of Vancouver and, after working on various contracts to gain experience, started her own event production company in 2011.
In addition to event planning and design, Aly has produced ten episodes of her Almost Married podcast, created The Almost Married Bridal Gift Box, is a mother of three and is an actor/model with numerous film and television credits. She has been featured in People Magazine, Daily Hive, WedLuxe Magazine, CTV, BC Business, and more.
NEW VENTURE
With almost two decades in the wedding and event industry, creating and executing gatherings throughout North America, it is no surprise that she is taking the helm of Vancouver’s top-ranked annual event – Diner en Blanc.
The global dinner concept began in Paris in 1988 when François Pasquier invited a group of friends to an elegant outdoor dinner at the Bois de Boulogne, asking them to dress in white so they could find each other. The event has grown to over 85 cities, with almost 17,000 gathering for the 30th-anniversary event in Paris.
Launched in Vancouver by The Social Concierge, the event recently celebrated its 10th incarnation in the city’s centre at Cooper’s Park in the cool shadow of the Cambie Street Bridge. From the stage, TSC’s Tyson Villeneuve and Jordan Kallman shared with the 2,500 attendees that the illustrious event would move forward with Aly and her team at Aly Armstrong Events Planning & Design.
Aly’s ability to conceptualize, plan, and execute events that exceed expectations is renowned. There is nothing she cannot envision – from intimate gatherings to large-scale conferences, her dedication and expertise in handling events of all sizes and complexities is unmatched.
