- How did you get started doing this type of work?
When I was in high school I was in the theater department. My favorite part of theater was being the assistant director or stage manager. After high school I tried (and hated) so many different jobs. I took a few months to travel across seas and during that time I took a serious look at my life. I looked at the time in my life that I was happiest and I realized that I was happiest directing and designing theater shows. I knew I didn't want to pursue theater but I loved designing and directing. Eventually that idea lead me to Wedding Planning. Ever since I had that realization I feel like I have been in a dream. I love what I do SO MUCH. I really can't imagine doing anything else.

- What questions should customers think through before talking to professionals about their project?
Wedding Planners and Venue Coordinators are very different. A venue coordinators main job is to look after the venue and to make sure all the logistics (tables, rooms etc.) are in order. A wedding planners main job is to take care of you as a couple. Yes they make sure every thing runs smoothly during the event, but all the time before the event they are working non stop to make sure you are happy and your wedding is exactly what you hoped it would be.
