Who
We Are and How We Got Started...
A
3rd
Generation
FAMILY OWNED BUSINESS!
An Event with Class, is a family owned business that was co-founded by Lupe Wussow.
She was an original founding member of N.A.R.P. (now N.A.R.M that is a National
Association for Reunion
Planners-which dictates guidelines and ethics for reunion organizers throughout
the United States).
Lupe started
the first High School Reunion Company servicing Kansas City, KS and
Kansas City, MO in the early ‘80’s! She started her business with a passion for
bringing old friends together and with a desire to have fun! Before there were
software programs, Yahoo search engines, email etc., Lupe was hammering away on
her typewriter, searching through phone books, and setting up the business model
that would establish her as THE REUNION PLANNER in the Midwest. Lupe’s
passion and fun with the business was contagious and she soon had various
members of her family helping her with various aspects of the business.
It was after 7
years involvement in reunion planning that Jesse A. Hernandez with Lupe’s
assistance, started his own Reunion Planning Company- An Event with Class. He
shared Lupe’s passion of renewing old friendships and bringing new ones
together. Jesse learned from THE REUNION PLANNER and that model has
served committees for over 6 years and close to 100 reunions in both MO and KS!
Recently, An
Event with Class has added two new owners into the fold-Darren and
Shannon
Prenger (Jesse’s niece & nephew). Darren and Shannon bring a wealth of reunion
planning experience.
So, if you are
looking for an experienced Event Planner specializing in High School Reunions
let, An Event with Class

together reunions since the ‘80’s.
