Weddingbee PRO

I can't describe how I felt when I saw Bee's name in my inbox a few weeks ago. It couldn't be THE Bee of Weddingbee fame, could it?? Imagine my delight as I opened the email and read that she wanted me to consider joining a new Weddingbee venture. One phone call later, I was ready to sign on. The concept for Weddingbee PRO is brilliant. Readers will get a unique look at what goes on behind-the-scenes of a wedding by gaining insight from various voices within the industry. I know I am in fabulous company with the rest of the inaugural bloggers and can't wait to see how they use their time on WB PRO.

Here's the skinny on me: I'm a wedding planner + event designer based in Southern California, and I absolutely love my job! My boutique planning company, Events of Love and Splendor, takes on only 20-25 clients per year to offer the highest level of personal care and service. I entered the industry in 2005 quite serendipitously, and I will definitely share that story in a later post. Since then, business has boomed due to the incredible word-of-mouth support I've received from my amazing clients. I do not advertise and still keep very busy.  I do write my own blog, featuring photos and recaps from recent weddings as well as glimpses into my personal life and interests. In just over 3 years, I have seen my business go places I had only dreamed of as a budding entrepreneur. It has been a fantastic ride and I am inspired daily by what I get to do for a living! I was married in august 2005 to my college sweetheart (go Bears!). When I'm not working, I love to cook, plan vacations, scrapbook and make cards, decorate my home, and read.


Here's a snapshot of me + my husband, Erik, so you can put a face to the name. The photo was taken by dear friend, the wildly talented Jasmine Star.

I would love to know what you want to see in my  WB PRO contributions, so don't hesitate to drop me a line below.  I am truly honored to be here and am thrilled to see what will become of WB PRO.
