About me

Hello Everyone, I'm Miranda Quartaro the Founder of MQ Events! 

With a decade of experience in the hospitality and events industry, I’ve had the privilege of planning and executing every type of event imaginable—from intimate dinners for 10 to large-scale celebrations for 500. No matter the size or occasion, my goal is always the same: to create an event that tells a story, leaving a lasting impression on everyone involved.

I believe that the best events come from strong relationships—not just with my clients but with the incredible vendors and teams I work alongside. Getting to know my clients on a personal level allows me to bring their unique vision to life, ensuring their event feels like a true reflection of who they are. At the same time, I’ve built a trusted network of talented vendors who share my passion for excellence, making every event seamless, stunning, and unforgettable.

I thrive on the excitement of event day, ensuring every detail is executed flawlessly while keeping the experience enjoyable and stress-free. I love leading a team, collaborating with industry experts, and bringing creative visions to life. Whether it’s a wedding in the Italian countryside, a corporate retreat in the heart of New York, or an elegant celebration on a tropical island, I specialize in turning ideas into unforgettable experiences.

While I’m based in upstate New York, my passion for events knows no boundaries. I plan and coordinate events globally, offering my expertise to couples and clients looking for bespoke, high-end experiences wherever their dream event may take them.

If you’re looking for a dedicated planner who values relationships, pays attention to every detail, and brings a creative, hands-on approach to event planning, I’d love to connect and bring your vision to life!

“I cannot recommend Miranda and MQ Events to enough people. She goes above and beyond what’s listed and required in each of her packages. She is not only a planner and coordinator that is beyond passionate about the industry, but she is also professional, calm, and so knowledgeable about different wedding styles, venues, decor, and was always so willing to go the extra mile to make sure my special day was everything I could have wished for.”
