Hmmmmm…who am I? I’ve
been called the wedding whisper, coordinating ninja, a magician just to name a
few of my nicknames but the reality is I’m just a down to Earth girl raised in
a small town that has big dreams.
Although they say “I clean up nicely” I’m most comfortable in a pair of
holey jeans, a t-shirt and flip flops. I
love planning local events but if you give me a few extra days off you can find
me on the beach in the Caribbean somewhere.
While I’m the proud momma of two adorable pups, it’s our 6lb office
When
it comes to our event designs, we think outside of the box. I personally prefer booking a venue that
speaks our couples first looking at the elements that it offers and go from
there. We love mixing textures and
layers when it comes to linens (FYI, all white linens are for all white
parties… if you are planning on wearing a “white” dress…you become a rental;
shouldn’t you stand out?). Your
centerpieces do not have to be flowers (although we love a beautiful floral
design) but let’s get creative with layout and details). Let’s think outside of the box. Design, Entertainment and Food & Beverage
is what sets the tone for your event.
Linens and Lighting will set the mood, entertainment will keep your
guests attention while you’re making your rounds and/or just enjoying being a
guest… and the happiest guests have food and beverage options throughout the
entire day…. Not just at meal time.
Let’s create an experience not an event…
I can assist you in
creating signature drinks because I’ve been a professional mixologist for
nearly two decades and bartended from the coast to my hometown. I am multi-certified through the Association
of Bridal Consultants, The Bridal Society, Beverly Clark Hospitality, and
Sandals.
I have a degree in Recreation,
Parks and Tourism and currently teaching Event Management & Planning at the
University of North Carolina at Greensboro. I am now enrolled in the Grad program at UNCG
to assist them in creating and developing a private event planning program and
hopefully degree. I’ve taught multiple
classes at the Alamance Community College.
We use our network through being members of
the local chapter of the Alamance Chamber Association, executive board member
of the Triad Bridal Society, NC state manager of the Association of Bridal
Consultants, The North Carolina Wedding Society, being a member of Triad
Weddings and a co-author of the Planners Unplugged book project to create the
best line up of vendors to create the best line up of vendors not only locally
but worldwide.
When
I’m not mentoring, teaching or creating magic for our couples you can usually
find me taking my mom to the movies, hanging out with my amazing boyfriend, cheering on the Panthers or UNC and/or grabbing lunch with a friend. I’m a true
believer that you CAN have it all but you have to find a work-life-balance that
fits your style and active lifestyle.
That’s one of the many
reasons why we limit the number of couples and clients we take on per
year. We love that our couples get to
know us and that they feel they are still our one and only because in our eyes
they are. We treat each of our couples
as if it’s our BFF getting married and their moms become ours (we’ll call
