FAQs
- What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I received a Bachelor of Arts from The Advertising & Public Relations Program of the Media & Communication Arts Department at City College in 2001. I specialized and excelled in Event Planning. I focused on weddings, since I love seeing people happy and in love. I am a Certified Wedding Planner through the the renowned Bridal Society.
- How did you get started doing this type of work?
I worked at PR firm doing event planning, but I longed to be surrounded by happiness and love. So a few years ago, when my cousin asked me to help him plan his wedding to his long-time partner, it was kismet. I became ordained and a registered officiant in New York City, as a wedding gift to them. I've been planning and presiding over weddings ever since.
- What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a provider in your area of work?
Make sure you sign a contract. I am appalled by how many couples call me last minute because they are unable to get in touch with their officiant in the the weeks leading up to the wedding, or worse a no-show the day of the ceremony.
