Today we’d like to introduce you to Hannah Nigh.
Hi Hannah, it’s an honor to have you on the platform. Thanks for taking the time to share your story with us – to start maybe you can share some of your backstory with our readers?
My love for the event industry actually started many years ago in 2005, when I worked for a catering company. I had to quit that job after I became a mom and they hours no longer worked for our family. From there I just always enjoyed hosting events and parties, helping friends and family with weddings and decorating. Everyone had always told me how good I was at it and after reading the book “You are a Badass” by Jen Sincero I really took some time to think about what I wanted to do with my life and what made me happy! It came back to events and weddings. I just dove into it from there. I started my Wedding Coordination business in 2017. Not too long after in 2019 I purchased my first photo booth to start adding that service to my couples big days and fill my schedule more. Now many weddings and 3 photo booths later, here we are!
Alright, so let’s dig a little deeper into the story – has it been an easy path overall and if not, what were the challenges you’ve had to overcome?
Like many small business owners, my journey hasn’t been without challenges. In the beginning it was pretty smooth, just the normal things of starting a business and trying to grow. By 2019 things were really taking off with my Coordination clients and by adding the photo booth. I had finally hit the point where I was going to feel comfortable quitting my full time job and doing this full time. I had a plan that by Summer of 2020 I was done at the corporate job, and doing what I love finally full time. Fast forward to March of 2020 and we all know what happened. My business, along with most others in the industry came to a complete stand still. That was a very scary time! I honestly wrestled with a lot during that time and questioned if this was really the right thing for me any more. I thought “If something like this can happen, and completely stop business is it worth the risk to continue.” The thought of walking away after I had given so much made me so sad. I wasn’t ready to give up yet! It took me some time to get things back up and going, even did some rebranding but here I am. Summer of 2024 I quit the corporate job and have been doing this full time.
Thanks – so what else should our readers know about Party Time Rentals KC?

Both through my wedding coordination services, my photo booth or any of our other rentals. My goal has always been to make sure that every client feels seen, heard, and cared for throughout the planning process.
What sets me apart is my heart for connection and my eye for detail. I don’t just manage timelines and logistics, I build relationships. I take pride in helping clients feel supported, celebrated, and confident that every detail of their day is in good hands. That personal touch allows me to create seamless, stress-free wedding days where my couples can simply relax and be fully present.

I take great pride in knowing that my couples can trust me completely that every detail, big or small, is taken care of.
At the heart of it all, I’m most proud that my brand reflects care, creativity, and genuine love for this industry. Each event I coordinate and every photo booth experience I set up is thoughtfully curated to reflect the people I’m serving. My passion lies in turning the planning process into something fun and memorable and in helping couples look back on their day knowing it was everything they dreamed of and more.
What sort of changes are you expecting over the next 5-10 years?
Oh goodness, Weddings and Events are constantly changing and evolving. Clients want their big days to feel unique and not like everyone else’s, so that means my business will forever be changing to stay update to date with trends, while keeping those timeless pieces that never go out of style.
