Hi! I'm Emily.

OWNER, LEAD EVENT PLANNER 

IMG_2483.JPG

I'm a fair skinned, Jesus lovin' blondie from Richmond, Virginia with a passion for all things weddings! My whole life, I have loved planning. Whether it was for family gatherings, socials with friends or actual large scale events, my gifts of being organized and planning special events, shined bright. 

 

​After graduating from Christopher Newport University in 2017 with a Bachelors in Psychology, I jumped right into the event planning industry. From being a Bridal Attendant for an event venue to accepting a job as an Events Manager, I learned all the ins and outs of events of all sizes. 

​

Fast forward to the year 2020 and I was faced with unfortunate job challenges in the midst of COVID-19. After lots of prayer and consideration for what was next, I felt both led and inspired to start my own business. Owning a business one day, was always something that I had in the back of my mind but I decided that a pandemic, would be the kickstart to making that dream a reality!

​

When I am not busy planning events, I love to be on the go, take in new adventures, spend time with my husband, our golden doodle puppy, Winston, and our family and friends.
