Thanks for tuning our Edit Sesh!
Today, we’re chatting with Dallas Lombardi. She’s the founder of Dallas & Co., a full-service planning and production company specializing in luxury events and weddings.
With over 20 years of experience, Dallas has built a reputation for creating breathtaking, high-end events while pushing creative boundaries. But her story goes far beyond the world of event planning. Dallas’s journey is one of resilience, reinvention, and relentless advocacy. From supporting herself as a teenager to becoming an executive in the hospitality industry by 26, she has always carved her own path. But life took an unexpected turn when she adopted two children with her ex—only for him to walk away, leaving her to navigate parenthood alone. Her kids, who are biological siblings, have complex behavioral needs and possible FASD, a reality she was blindsided by due to a lack of transparency from the system. Now, Dallas is not just a mother—she’s a fierce advocate, fighting for the support her children deserve while balancing her career and personal life. On top of all of that, she just got engaged! She and her fiancé, Chris, are blending their families, as he also has children with disabilities. Together, they are building a life full of love, creativity, and perseverance. Today, we’re diving into her incredible career, the challenges and joys of motherhood, her fight with CAS, and how she continues to show up and create beauty in the world despite everything she’s been through.
This is a conversation about strength, vulnerability, and the power of forging your own path.
