I’ve been told I’ve never met a stranger. As a completely “type A” girl’s girl I fell in love with the journey of marriage, and am honored that I am able to form such deep connections with so many incredible women like you at this very special time in your life. While I love a beautiful event, to me a strong and healthy marriage is the goal of any wedding celebration.
I am also is a lover of “pretty things” meaning that planning is a natural fit for my personality and my classic, elegant aesthetic. My favorite part of the planning process is getting to know your love story, and finding ways to infuse those elements into your wedding day.
When I’m not planning weddings, I love to travel. And when I’m ready for some downtime, you’ll find me on the couch catching up on reality TV. My other guilty pleasures include pizza and champagne–which I would happily survive on if I could!
