Founder and CEO of ‘Enjoy Yourself Events’, Elaina M. Whitley has been in the event industry for more than ten years. Starting out in New York City as a teenager by helping friends and family to plan their functions, Elaina quickly realized that this was something that she enjoyed doing. Whenever someone came up with an idea for an event, Elaina stepped in and took over by coordinating all of the details which would result in fun gatherings complete with food, entertainment, decorations and satisfied guests. In 2006, Elaina moved to Atlanta, Georgia and created ‘Enjoy Yourself Events.’ Effortlessly blending right into her new environment, Elaina began to coordinate parties and events around the city while networking and building relationships with affluent individuals.
