RACHEL RICHARDS
Chief Celebration Officer | Co-Founder | Celebration Obsessed
With over 20 years in the event
industry (and a lifelong passion for
making moments magical),
Rachel is the visionary behind
House of R’s creative direction.
Before House of R opened its
doors, she had already built a
reputation through STEP Group
Events for producing some of
Omaha’s most imaginative and
stylish private and branded events.
Rachel has designed and overseen
hundreds of events under the House of R umbrella—from intimate dinners and corporate galas to themed kids’ parties, luxe baby showers, micro-weddings, fundraisers, and corporate events. She’s equal parts detail-driven and dream-led—bringing fresh ideas, personal touches, and plenty of joy to every celebration.
Her favorite part of the job? Helping clients feel seen, celebrated, and completely at ease.

MEET THE TEAM
The Heart Behind the House.
At House of R, we’re more than planners—we’re creative partners, celebration cheerleaders, and experience curators. Since opening our doors, we’ve helped bring to life hundreds of unforgettable events right here in Omaha—from stylish showers and milestone birthdays to elegant weddings and full-scale corporate experiences. We love what we do, and we love doing it as a team.
VIC RICHARDS
Director of Celebrations & Logistics | Co-Founder | Experience Curator
With over 20 years of leadership
experience in broadcast television,
branding, and community
engagement, Vic brings the
operational backbone and
heart-forward hospitality that
powers House of R. A people-first
leader with a strong business
acumen, Vic keeps the engine
running behind the scenes—
managing everything from logistics
and vendor relationships to
big-picture vision and client
experience.
His fingerprints are on every event we touch—from weddings and corporate mixers to fundraisers and high-energy private parties. He’s known for his calm demeanor, quick thinking, and knack for making every guest (and every client) feel like part of the family.
When he’s not running the show, he’s likely spending time with his own large, loud, and much-loved crew—because at the end of the day, that’s what it’s all about.

TOGETHER…
Rachel and Vic dreamed up House of R as a space where people could gather, celebrate, and connect in truly unforgettable ways. What started as a shared vision is now a thriving creative team, an ever-growing community of clients and collaborators, and a one-of-a-kind venue where the magic just keeps happening.
Whether you’re planning something big, small, offbeat, or over-the-top—we’d love to help you celebrate.
