What made you get started in wedding planning?
When at a job as an administrative assistant I started out planning little events such as meetings, annual general meetings, and then larger events such as charity functions, award shows and golf tournaments. I then had to plan my own wedding. I had a good friend of mine tell me it was my calling. And should couldn’t have been more correct. I started by taking an Events Management Course and then later my Certification through WPIC.

What type of wedding planning do you specialize (Full, Day of, Design)?
All, I limit the amount of each type of wedding (i.e only 5 full coordination weddings a year)

What is your favorite part of a wedding?
Being the last person to see the bride before she walks down the aisle.

What are a few of your favorite blogs?
Oh, I love blogs! The local photographers in Edmonton sure have some beautiful photos so I sit on those for a good amount of time.

Hostess with the Mostess
Ritzy Bee

What are some of your hobbies?
Well I like to bike ride with my hubby in the summer and I love scrapbooking and DIY crafts and home improvements!

What is one word of advice you would give to a bride?
Figure out what is most important to you and go for it. It’s only one day.
