Meet your Creative Director

The Personality

I am a fairly ambitious person, once I set my mind on something I want to achieve, I work hard to accomplish it. I would say I am bit of a home body and love spending hours decorating and
re-designing spaces within my home.

Travel, even though I love my created home sanctuary…I think putting yourself out there travelling is such a valuable life lesson.. experiencing another culture, its history and its natural beauties, forming life long memories. I spent a year abroad in Canada in my early 20’s and now in my 30’s Europe is highly on the scene, I could definitely live forever in Italy.

Love a buttery Chardy, or an ice cold Ginger Beer, eating fine food or anything Italian cuisine.
Being outdoors with my family, in nature or on the coast, or clothes shopping is most relaxing for me.

Ever since I can remember

We were always creating, crafting and sewing in my family.
Coming from practical parents with family in Carpentry and Administration, we were always taught to make things.

In 2018 The Wedding Concept was established after a desire to provide wedding couples a personalized wedding planning/ design service; one actually dedicated to sharing the workload and helping people through the highs and lows of event organization.
Offering a service that allowed me to creatively grow, run my own schedule and be valued.

My extensive background gives me a unique perspective on each wedding I plan and my attention to detail is second to none. Drawing inspiration within our designs from many forms of art and sculpture, Fashion, Interior design, European history and world wide cultures.

Every day I am grateful for my drive in previous years, to now be able to say I created my own Dream Job!
