Coordination To Ease The Mind, Support For The Commitment Of A Lifetime.
This is an approach for the deeply intentional who believe that the wedding is not a box to be checked, but rather, a personalized launch party for a fulfilling marriage.
Because you know that it's worth listening to each other, your gut, your values and yes, even your family — after all, you're building a life, not just planning an event.
So, take what serves you and your connections, and leave what doesn’t with a process that validates your emotions and nurtures your partnership.
If we are considerate of each other and the wedding vision, the experience can be more rewarding than you could imagine. Together, we’ll get to the root of your partnership and the ways you want to honor it to create a celebration that fosters connection. By reframing your wedding as a values-based experience, each decision you make together will come with a renewed sense of harmony.
So, let’s change the narrative.
The promises made and sentiments shared during your wedding will be some of the most impactful experiences of your life. But the expectations and outdated dynamics can overshadow these moments. Over the years as a licensed counselor and a wedding coordinator, I witnessed the endless pressure couples experienced, often losing sight of their why and jeopardizing the very thing they’re celebrating.

Finding The Balance Of…
The fast-paced nature of weddings captivated me, but there was a profound gap. Couples had all of the logistical and creative help you could imagine, but mental wellbeing had somehow fallen between the cracks on one of the most emotional days of people’s lives.
I combined my counseling experience with my coordination expertise to help couples manage their emotions, and to better be able to slow down and take it all in. My own wedding? Under the mangrove trees of Kauai, Hawaii in a place that felt like home over the years — complete with beachside massages and local traditions like the cleansing of hands with ocean water.
A handwritten note on the opening page of a book gifted from my sister expresses everything I want to be — someone who consistently encourages and supports others. The book? It was about purpose, the very thing that empowers my every decision.
This desire for impact is what led me to a 10-year career in the mental health counseling field. Counseling others to create meaningful lives and address crises was rewarding, but I yearned for creativity. I was on a walk in between sessions one day when I saw a job listing for a wedding coordinator. That’s when everything shifted.
