I've always had a deep passion for organizing and planning which is why I chose to start my own Event Planning business. I knew at a young age being a Special Events/Wedding Planner is a dream I wanted to pursue.

Born and raised in North Carolina, I learned from an early age the power of gatherings and gratitude. My family taught me to cherish the moments that bring us together, and it’s this spirit that inspires my work today.

I absolutely love celebrating others and the journey that goes into creating meaningful experiences. From the planning and anticipation to the emotions and memories made, it’s a true joy to be part of your most memorable moments.
