My Story
Words. Not a fan. My mantra has always been “Actions speak louder than words.” Show me. Don’t tell me. Anyone can sell you something, but the proof is so much more valuable. And that is what I hope you get from the Engaged Wedding Planner Academy. If you are thinking about joining the wedding planning world, I want to teach you how to get started and be successful at it.
My teachings have been a long time in the making. I’m a military wife who’s had to revive my wedding planning business, Fleur de Lis Event Consulting, several times over (with success, I might add). Not wanting to lose the contacts and name I created, I took on consultants to run different locations. With that came new challenges. With some trial and error, I learned how to create a foolproof system for my girls. The framework I taught them, I will now teach you.
Fun Fact #1:
I’ve collected sand from every beach I’ve ever been to.
