Monumental Moments

Welcome to Monumental Moments Event Planning. I’m Andrea Z Aponte, Owner and Founder.

Every great gathering has a heartbeat. My passion for bringing people together is backed by over fifteen years of professional leadership, project management, and operational execution.

My career is built on a foundation of growth and meticulous organization. Having spent five years rising through the ranks to become the General Manager of the Santa Monica Bike Center, I spent years working closely with the City of Santa Monica to spearhead community events, public presentations, and complex logistical operations. From managing intricate corporate budgets and vendor networks to overseeing physical project developments and tenant operations, I have spent my career mastering the behind-the-scenes mechanics that make big ideas come to life seamlessly.

As an active nonprofit board director, I also understand how to design environments where people feel connected, valued, and inspired.

I approach event coordination with a unique dual perspective: the sharp, proactive mindset of an experienced business manager and the deeply expressive soul of a visual artist. Bilingual in English and Spanish, I bring a bold, organized, and inclusive energy to the table. I am here to execute your exact vision, safeguard your peace of mind, and ensure your monumental moment is entirely unforgettable.
