It’s Spotlight Day where we introduce you to incredible Orlando wedding venues and the stories behind their companies who help Wedding Venue Map couples have their best wedding day.
It gives us great pleasure to introduce this week’s venue spotlight, Jessica Maertchik of B Resort & Spa.
What did you do before you did this?
Originally, I was going to major in Nutrition. I never had the thought of becoming an Event Planner until a close friend of mine said something that would change my life forever. She mentioned that my skills in professionalism, organization, communication, and creativity could be applied to a successful career. Those words resonated in my head for a while and I decided to change my major to Event Planning & Management.
While I was attending Rosen College, I secured a valuable Internship with the Walt Disney Company that became part-time and full-time jobs as well as a wedding company and Catering company.
What is your favorite thing about what you do? What’s your WHY?
My favorite thing about what I do is that I am able to help bring the couple’s wedding vision to reality.
What motivates you to do this every day?

Aside from giving each event its own sense of personality, I enjoy establishing a connection with couples and the families/ the clients I work with.
