On any given day you can find me sipping on a Starbucks black iced coffee (hold the sweetner please!) and googling my way to my next excursion #flightaholic. In my dream life, I’d travel to a new city and create more adventures weddings, and to be honest, this business has given me the ability to support this dream (pinch me!). I have over 8 years experience in the wedding industry from service, to venue operations and now as a business own.I never take myself too seriously, I thrive off a good challenge and I’m constantly dreaming of ways to create more experiences for the couples I work with.
