After working in the fashion retail industry for several years, my exceptional work ethic and perfectionist nature led me down a path of visual display coordination for a well-known Fortune 500 company. This further ignited my innate passion for design and I began leveraging my professional experience to assist couples in planning one of the most memorable days of their lives. Being part of a couple’s most important day with their friends and loves ones is an unparalleled privilege to me. I have always had a keen eye for fashion, style and a discriminating taste for food. I am truly grateful for the opportunity to be part of the planning process of such a joyous occasion. As a wedding planner, certified by the Associations of Bridal Consultants, my goal is to surpass all expectations while creating an extraordinary event which overflows with elegance, refinement, and sophistication. Planning your special day should not be remembered as a stressful time, but rather as an exciting time to create an event that captures the essence of your love. As your Wedding Planner, I assure you I will offer you only the highest level of service with integrity, efficiency and professionalism. I will help you create what you always envisioned your celebration to be and I will work hard to ensure that it is flawlessly executed on your special day.

One wedding accessory we’ll never stop recommending: the veil. 🕊️

A veil has a way of transforming even the simplest bridal look into something unforgettable. It adds movement, softness, and a sense of occasion that photographs beautifully from every angle.

Wedding tablescapes don’t have to stay inside the “expected.”

One of our favorite design directions lately? Incorporating unexpected wedding color palettes in a way that still feels elevated and timeless - like this mocha mousse moment. A soft, organic way to bring brown into your wedding design without it feeling heavy or overly traditional.

From layered linens to textured florals and warm candlelight, choosing a unique wedding tablescape color can completely transform the atmosphere of your reception. The key is leaning into tones that add depth, warmth, and personality while still feeling cohesive with the overall guest experience.

Planning your wedding reception design? Don’t be afraid to have fun with color. Some of the most memorable wedding tablescapes come from taking a creative risk!

Let’s talk about designing a wedding that feels cohesive from start to finish.

Your ceremony and reception are just part of the story - your wedding bar design and lounge areas should carry just as much personality. From custom bars to curated lounge furniture, these spaces create moments where guests gather, relax, and experience your design in a more interactive way.

Planning your wedding? Don’t overlook the bar and lounge styling - it’s where the vibe really comes to life.
