I Do... Weddings!

I got involved in weddings because I can't think of any other industry where I am able to celebrate people at their happiest and most in love. I feel very blessed!

I find inspiration in each couple's love story. I love to hear how my couples met, fell in love, and how the question was popped.

My dream wedding includes lush floral arrangements, fun finger foods for cocktail hour, a bubbly signature drink, a packed dance floor, a photobooth and a couple that is very much in love.

My passion outside of work is animals. I am very proud to support the San Diego Humane Society.

My favorite part of a wedding is the first dance. It is often the couple's first opportunity to truly relax, and it always shows!

If I could travel anywhere, I’d go back to Jamaica. It is heaven!

My advice to a bride on her wedding day is to bring along comfy shoes! Happy feet equals Happy Bride! Also, to hire wedding professionals that you trust implicitly--and will make your day everything you hoped it would be, and more.

I love Exquisite Weddings because the magazine embraces personal style. I love the fact that no two issues are the same, and they feature a variety of trends, topics and couples!
