Fiestah, a party planning website based in New York and created by Stefanos Missailidis, is coming to D.C. on the eve of a broader multi-city expansion, Elevation DC reported Monday:

The company is starting a “city by city rollout,” with D.C. being the first; San Francisco, Los Angeles, and Chicago expansions are also planned for 2015.
“First, I grew up in the Alexandria area,” Missailidis says of the decision to bring Fiestah to the District, “so I know the area and most of my network is here. Coming back home feels good. Second, it’s a great market. There are tons and tons of events here,” both in the government and in the suburban market.
