13 years ago today I did my first official wedding with 265 guests! I truly jumped in head first.
& thank you for trusting me. I cried afterwards that I actually pulled it off.
I was 47 yrs old.
I started my event design business around 45 yrs old, and swore I was NOT going to do weddings;
only kids parties, showers & birthdays. Any celebration BUT weddings. HA! We make plans & God laughs.
Ok, I’ll only do them in my small rural town but not in the city…
Ok, but not in DC…
Ok, but not destination weddings…
“Courage isn’t the absence of fear, it’s doing it in spite of the fear.”
So here I am 13 yrs later at almost 61 yrs old (whatttt ?) having clients willing to have me travel back to the East coast (or wherever) to do their weddings, AND at the same time trying to start all over again here in Nashville.
Can you tell I still love what I do?
I honestly look at how far I’ve come & truly STILL can’t believe it - Ephesians 3:20.
It has been the hardest & most rewarding work I have ever done.
I am forever grateful God allowed me to use my gifts to design & create. Not only that, but to do it to celebrate love & marriage! - “And the greatest of these is love”
What a joy and privilege to be part of someone’s “best day of their lives!”
Continued in comments and thanks if you got this far!! 😉
