History

Established in 2007.

Jaimel Gauda made the jump from stay-​at-​home mom to work-​at-​home mom when she created Once Upon A Bash in 2007. The service initially only included events held in her clients’ homes. Very soon, demand began to outgrow her SUV and she began shopping for an event space in 2008. She fell in love with historic Maplewood’s charm and eccentricity, and 2732 Sutton quickly became the mompreneur’s second home. Jaimel and husband Anthony call the city their «first home,» where they live with their three children. The oldest, Joss and «Ant,» are regulars at store events!
