Events of a Lifetime Productions Celebrates 10 Years of Groundbreaking Experiential Events

Atlanta, Georgia—April 3, 2025—Events of a Lifetime Productions (ELP), an award-winning, certified women-owned experiential event agency, proudly marks its 10th anniversary with gratitude, creativity, and continued innovation. Headquartered in Atlanta, Georgia, with additional locations in Sarasota, Florida, and Beaufort, South Carolina, ELP has earned a reputation as a disruptor in the event industry, crafting unforgettable experiences that leave a lasting impact.


Founded by visionary entrepreneur and designer Gillian Marto, ELP began its journey in luxury wedding planning. Under her leadership, and in partnership with Vice President Debra Hull—an award-winning writer, event producer, and brand strategist—the agency expanded its expertise into corporate events, incentive trips, and high-profile luxury experiences. " We don’t just plan events; we create stories that resonate emotionally and align with our clients," says Ms. Hull. "It's about moving people to feel, connect, and act."


Gillian and Deb’s unique connection dates back to their serendipitous meeting on a beach, where they discovered a shared passion for creativity, people and connecting them. Their friendship became the foundation for ELP’s philosophy of excellence and innovation, which continues to set the agency apart. Both women personally oversee every project ELP takes on, ensuring each event carries their hallmark dedication and creativity. Their hands-on approach has seen them do everything from driving U-Haul trucks to washing silverware and even handling unexpected challenges—like driving out an unruly alligator!


ELP’s visionary work has garnered extensive features in national publications and awards across a range of categories, including numerous Atlanta Event Awards for Best Charity Event, Logistical Achievement in Planning, Best Tabletop Design, Best Corporate Event and several Best Wedding Awards to name a few. Notable achievements include being named among the

“Top Ten Conferences That Captivate” and winning an “Event Experience Award” for a dynamic Ferrari brand launch from international industry giant BizBash. Their creativity also shines in their creation of innovative event elements like ELP’s branded live hand wall—an interactive event element that never fails to delight.

"We bring the "WOW," emphasizes CEO Gillian Marto. "Our secret? Listening closely to our clients and discovering their needs, goals, and even guilty pleasures. We use those insights to design bespoke events that drive behavior and cultivate unforgettable moments"

Beyond the accolades, ELP is proud of their ability to positively impact corporate cultures, create groundbreaking “Parties with a Purpose” to support charitable causes, and their niche in crafting exceptional experiences for high-net-worth individuals, such as life-changing women’s health and wellness retreats for female C-Suite leaders.


Reflecting on the journey, Gillian and Deb credit ELP’s growth to the loyalty of clients who share glowing testimonials about how their events have inspired transformation and deepened connections. Additionally, the women credit the professionalism, dedication and willingness of their event teams, DMCs, and their world-wide network of vendor partners to go above and beyond for them as an integral part of their success. As the company embarks on its next chapter, ELP remains committed to pushing boundaries, enhancing in-person connection and elevating the art of experiential events.
