How did you get started as a wedding pro?

While working at Royal Caribbean, I began planning events. I had the opportunity to organize corporate events for companies like Avon, Coca-Cola, High Seas Rally, and many others. After working with Royal Caribbean for over 13 years, I decided to transition to Orlando and completed a certification class with Lovegevity. Upon receiving my certification, I launched my own wedding planning business, as this has always been a passion of mine.
