PHILOSOPHY
Gatherings Are the
Architecture of Memory
At ALEA, we believe every event carries the weight of meaning. The right room at the right moment — with the right people, the right energy, the right details — can shift a relationship, launch an idea, or mark a chapter.
"We don't just plan events. We design experiences that feel like they could only have happened this way, for these people, at this moment in time."

MEET THE FOUNDER
Jacquelyn
Lockhart-Andretta
Jacquelyn founded ALEA after years of watching extraordinary people hold ordinary events, rooms full of potential that never quite ignited.
She built ALEA to be different. A studio where every gathering begins not with a venue or a budget, but with a question: what should this feel like when it's over?
Ready to Begin?
We take on a small number of projects each season to ensure every client receives our full attention.
If you're envisioning something meaningful, we'd love to hear about it.
