The Missing Layer in High-Touch Events: Concierge Event Medicine with EventDox

<p>In this episode of The Wine and Dine Me Podcast, Reagan sits down with Caroline Brown and Julie Livingston, co-founders of EventDox, a concierge event medicine service designed for elevated weddings, private events, and high-touch celebrations where discretion and preparedness matter.</p><p><br></p><p>Julie, a seasoned wedding photographer, first noticed the gap after years of seeing guests, family members, brides, and grooms become sick or injured during events, sometimes leading to ambulances, missed moments, or family members stepping away to manage the situation. That experience sparked the question: why isn’t there a better way to handle medical needs without disrupting the event?</p><p><br></p><p>Caroline brings a background in healthcare, concierge medicine, and relationship-driven business, helping shape EventDox into what they describe as a hospitality company that does medicine, not the other way around. Their providers dress in event attire, blend into the environment, and understand the expectations of sophisticated private events.</p><p><br></p><p>The conversation explores the difference between traditional EMT coverage and concierge event medicine, including why nurse practitioners, physician assistants, and physicians can offer a broader scope of care on site. Caroline and Julie explain what they bring to an event, from prescription medications and IVs to AEDs, EpiPens, Narcan, and wellness lounge support.</p><p><br></p><p>They also discuss the liability planners and hosts may not realize they are carrying, from handing out Advil to hiring a nurse friend or relying on a doctor who happens to be attending as a guest. EventDox operates as a medical practice with licensed providers, clinical oversight, and malpractice insurance, filling the space between a small injury and a full emergency response.</p><p><br></p><p>The episode also moves into a more personal conversation about reinvention, resilience, motherhood, postpartum anxiety, difficult life chapters, and what it means to build something meaningful while still being human. Caroline and Julie share how their own hard seasons shaped the way they show up as business owners and as women leading a new company.</p><p><br></p><p><strong>In this episode, we talk about:</strong></p><ul><li>What concierge event medicine actually means</li><li>Why medical support is becoming a thoughtful layer of event hospitality</li><li>The difference between EventDox and traditional EMT coverage</li><li>How medical care can be integrated discreetly into weddings and private events</li><li>The liability planners, venues, and hosts may not realize they are carrying</li><li>Why relying on a guest who happens to be a doctor is not the same as having medical coverage</li><li>Wellness lounges, IV support, and on-site medical care for guests and event teams</li><li>Building a business from lived experience and industry need</li><li>Motherhood, resilience, postpartum anxiety, and asking for help</li><li>Why preparedness should feel like care, not fear</li></ul><p><br></p><p><strong>Guest Information</strong></p><p><strong>Guests:</strong> <a href="https://www.instagram.com/carolinedbrown" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">Caroline Brown</a> and <a href="https://www.instagram.com/julielivingstonphotography" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">Julie Livingston</a><br><strong>Company:</strong> <a href="https://eventdox.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">EventDox</a><br><strong>Email:</strong> <a href="mailto:info@eventdocs.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">info@eventdocs.com</a><br><strong>Instagram:</strong> <a href="https://www.instagram.com/eventdox/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">@eventdox</a></p><p><br></p><p><strong>Listen &amp; Follow</strong></p><ul><li><a href="https://reaganevents.com/subscribe" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">Subscribe to our newsletter</a> for inspiration, updates, and expert advice.</li><li>Follow us on <a href="https://www.instagram.com/reaganevents/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">Instagram</a> and <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@reagan_kerr" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">TikTok</a> for behind-the-scenes moments, trending ideas, and so much more.</li><li>Tune in to our Wine and Dine Me Podcast on <a href="https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/wine-me-dine-me/id1729281267" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">Apple Podcasts</a> and <a href="https://open.spotify.com/show/7mBMEuo0nflqMus9Sl3HYN" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">Spotify</a>, where we explore all things weddings, life, and business.</li></ul>

Bryan Rafanelli on Building Clients for Life

<p>In this episode of <strong>The Wine and Dine Me Podcast</strong>, Reagan sits down with Bryan Rafanelli for a conversation about the kind of event work that lasts beyond a single night.<br />Bryan shares how he thinks about client relationships, not as one-time projects, but as long-term partnerships built through trust, care, and future-minded service. From wedding planning and private celebrations to corporate and nonprofit events, he talks about why the strongest businesses are built by staying close to clients, understanding who is in the room, and creating moments that feel personal without being performative.<br />Reagan and Bryan also talk about high-touch guest service, the pressure to stay relevant, why event innovation cannot only be visual, and how planners can advocate for the right decisions when the integrity of the guest experience is at stake. The conversation moves from business strategy to hospitality philosophy, with Bryan offering a generous, candid look at what has shaped his career after decades in the event industry.They also discuss:</p><ul><li> Why a wedding can be the beginning of a lifelong client relationship </li><li> How to make sure guests know who produced the event without awkward self-promotion </li><li> The role of trust when discussing budgets, investments, and last-minute decisions </li><li> Why planners should understand the character of the guest list </li><li> How to approach VIPs with confidence and humanity </li><li> Why diversifying your client portfolio can create a stronger business </li><li> The difference between staying visible and staying truly relevant </li><li> Why guest experience is still the real measure of a memorable event</li></ul><p><strong>Connect with Anja Winikka:</strong><br />Instagram: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/rafanellievents/" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">@rafanellievents</a><br />Website:  <a href="https://www.rafanellievents.com/" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">rafanellievents.com</a><strong>Listen &amp; Follow</strong></p><ul><li><a href="https://reaganevents.com/subscribe" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">Subscribe to our newsletter</a> for inspiration, updates, and expert advice.</li><li>Follow us on <a href="https://www.instagram.com/reaganevents/" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">Instagram</a> and <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@reagan_kerr" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">TikTok</a> for behind-the-scenes moments, trending ideas, and so much more.</li><li>Tune in to our Wine and Dine Me Podcast on <a href="https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/wine-me-dine-me/id1729281267" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">Apple Podcasts</a> and <a href="https://open.spotify.com/show/7mBMEuo0nflqMus9Sl3HYN" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">Spotify</a>, where we explore all things weddings, life, and business.</li></ul>
