In high school, she loved being on the prom committee and planning all the details of the event. It was no surprise when she was voted “Most Organized” by her Senior classmates.
She decided to start her own company one day doing something she loved, so she took classes to become a Certified Wedding Planner. You’re The Bride became official in 1999.
Reflecting on her own wedding, she remembers how excited she was to arrive at her reception to see everything she had selected! Unfortunately, she was disappointed that her cake was not exactly as she envisioned.
She had paid extra to have tulle and lights under the cake to make it appear it was floating on a cloud but that did not happen. There were a few other issues that could have been fixed before the reception started… IF she had hired a wedding coordinator. Don’t have the same regret. This is why she started the company to help couples ensure everything is perfect!
