Ember & Ash Events

7-months in to starting my own business and I have found that this has been one of the most challenging yet most rewarding experiences I’ve ever taken on. I’ve worn more hats than I can count, and each challenge has taught me something valuable and has grown me in ways I didn’t realize I needed.

There have been unexpected obstacles (naturally), long and draining days, many moments of doubt, and learning new skills that have pushed me so far outside of my comfort zone, I’ve questioned everything. Through it all, however, I’ve gained so much perspective and confidence for myself and my journey. I do my best to stop and acknowledge how far I’ve come within these first few months of entrepreneurship and appreciate the support I’ve received from family, friends, colleagues, former co-workers, and complete strangers online that just want to see me succeed. ❤️

To anyone chasing a dream of venturing out on your own, keep going! The moments you want to give up the most are when you should push the hardest.

Did I wake up at 4am to catch the lunar eclipse? Yes! I could’ve sat and watched it all morning. I am fascinated with space! This eclipse was not only rare, but it was a welcomed reminder that even in the moments of shadows on this never ending journey of self betterment and the pursuit of happiness, we are still moving forward, and the light always returns.

As we near the end of Q1 in 2026, I hope everyone takes a moment to appreciate the work you’re doing, the grind you’ve stayed persistent on, and to do all you can to take care of yourself and avoid the impeding burnout we all experience. (Even the moon needs a break from reflecting the sun🌘)

✨For anyone that needs to hear it, you’re killing it and you’ve got this!✨

With year-end just around the corner, 2026 budgeting is officially in motion! 🥂 As planning begins for the upcoming year’s events, let’s talk through the things to keep in mind that your planner will be sure to ask you; along with a few sliding scale percentages to look out for as you prioritize your most important elements.

Hello! I'm Danae Morgan, founder and lead planner behind Ember & Ash Events.

Before launching Ember & Ash, I spent my career working in corporate event planning, partnership marketing, and sports activations with time at both NASCAR and the Arizona Diamondbacks (industries where precision, timing, and creativity are everything). ✨

The path that led me here has shaped my approach to every event I plan. I am so excited to step into this new season of designing meaningful and unforgettable events with you!
