What attracted you to become a Wedding Planner and what is your favorite part of the planning process?

Wedding and event planning is the most satisfying process. It takes organization, artistry, logistical know-how, and most importantly, a strong understanding of people and what they want and need. It is this process that most attracted me to the field but my favorite part is taking so many small ideas and turning them into a reality. It is a joy to see our client's excitement on their big day and to know that we were a source of comfort and stability through the planning process.
