Thoughtful Events.
Meaningful Moments.
Less Stress.
Personal event planning for showers, milestone celebrations, dinner parties, open houses, and client events throughout Monrovia and the San Gabriel Valley.
Celebrate the moment.
Let us carry more of the details.
People host gatherings because they want to celebrate life's milestones and connect with the people who matter most. Not to spend the whole event managing logistics, directing vendors, or feeling stretched thin behind the scenes.
That's the gap Moving Mountains Event Planning fills. Whether it's an intimate shower or a business open house, Giana helps organize the moving pieces so you can actually be present as a host.
Thoughtful planning for every gathering.

Baby Showers
A warm welcome for new beginnings. The focus stays on the parents-to-be and the people gathered around them, while Giana helps carry the details that let the host simply be there for it.
Bridal Showers
An honoring of the bride-to-be, kept focused on the people in the room. This is shower planning, not wedding planning. Giana helps shape the day so the host can enjoy every toast.


Milestone Birthdays & Dinner Parties
Whether you're marking a landmark year or hosting a small dinner at home, the goal is the same. A gathering that feels like the person at the center of it, and a host who gets to be a guest at their own table.
Gatherings for your business, too.
Polished and warm, without turning corporate. A way to thank clients and welcome people into your space.
Open Houses
A welcoming hosted gathering, planned around your guests and your space. Whatever the open house is for, the aim is a room that feels genuinely open.

A chance to step out of the transaction and into something more human. A room, a drink, a genuine thank you to the people who keep a business going.

Meet Giana Furuya
Giana has worked in customer service for more than 20 years. She loves people, and she loves making genuine connections. Event planning grew from something she enjoyed doing into something she is now pursuing professionally.
What she values most is the chance to build real connections and play a small part in creating lasting memories for the people she works with.
She brings patience, warmth, and care to every conversation. The kind of attention that comes from genuinely liking the work.

Why “Moving Mountains”?
Giana is an avid hiker. Time on the trails throughout Southern California is what inspired the name of the business.
Planning an event can sometimes feel like facing a mountain of details: timelines, decor, guest lists, logistics. But like any trail, the work becomes manageable when you approach it thoughtfully and one steady step at a time.
“We handle the mountain of details, so you can enjoy the peak moment.”
From the first idea to the final guest goodbye.
The conversation begins with what you are celebrating, what matters most to you, and where you need support.
From there, the event takes shape through collaboration, organization, and attention to the details that matter. Not every detail. The ones that make the gathering feel considered.
On the day, Giana keeps the behind-the-scenes flow moving so you can be present with your guests. You should get to experience the celebration, not spend it managing it.
Let's start with a conversation.
Tell Giana about the baby shower, birthday, dinner party, or business event you're planning. You'll talk through dates, vision, and where she can help most.
