FAMILY is at the HEART

EVERYTHING I do

FAMILY is at the HEART 
of EVERYTHING I do

When I’m not planning weddings, you’ll find me in full family mode—soaking up the sunshine outdoors with my partner Scott, our beautiful children, Ellis and Vida, and our playful pup, Ollie.

Clients often say that throughout the process of working together that we become like part of their family—and that’s exactly how we want you to feel!
