This is the Real Reason Why...

So... I figure that if I want to do this blog and do it right, I might as well tell you more about myself.  One thing that is probably quite obvious by now is the fact that I grew up watching Disney movies.  What little girl didn't?  I mean we all wanted our Prince Charming and dreamed of the Happily Ever After's right? Well, it's a good thing that I believe in fairytales because, I met my husband Creg seven years ago and we have been married for two.  It was our wedding that started me off on my journey of wanting to become a wedding planner.

The whole process from beginning to end was so much fun; from finding the venue, to dancing the first dance. I enjoyed every bit of it, especially the romance of it all.  I knew that I always wanted to have my own business and be my own boss but I never knew EXACTLY what it was that I wanted to do.  It wasn't until I got to experience the skill that it takes to actually plan a wedding that I said to myself "Oh My Gosh this is what I want to do!  This is right up my alley!"  Hey, sometimes it just takes people a little while to figure out what their niche in life is.  So, I invested in myself and spent the time and the money to really study this industry.  This led me to become a member of the Association of Bridal Consultants and gain the credentials and the skills that I needed.
I passed the classes and now I am a Wedding Planner and I love it!  The rest is history!

Take a look at our day and the very first wedding that I planned (the first of many might I add):
The Belle Voir Manor in Bensalem, Pa
Yes, I was very pregnant!  We had an 18month engagement and our baby decided that it wanted to be at the ceremony too! Imagine the alterations that had to be made!












Well, that's enough for right now... I may post more.  I have to dig up the jpeg files somewhere within this computer! ;-)


-P.S. 

Here is our little "Happily Ever After"---
