Christine
With a background in corporate finance, Christine took a unique path to becoming a wedding planner. She discovered her natural ability for event coordination when she began planning her own wedding. She utterly impressed everyone with her professionalism, and everyone from fellow brides-to-be to vendors encouraged her to explore her passion of wedding planning and coordination. Since that time Christine has cultivated those business and personal relationships and become an incredible event planner. She explores every option but manages to choose the best one every time. Not only is she able to express her clients’ ideas clearly and effectively, she also strives to help her clients’ stay on budget.
Thanks to her finance background she is able to negotiate with both cost and preference in mind. But Christine is more than just business; she also has a natural creative side. That is what makes her services so unique. Christine knows how to turn a vision into a reality and she does it well. Christine is a member of the Association of Bridal Consultants and the National Association for Female Executives.

From the minute Tara got engaged she began planning her dream wedding. Over the course of two years she perfected every tiny detail and made that dream a reality. That experience gave her the desire to help other couples make their dreams come true as well!
