I am a wedding planner because
I have always gravitated towards the event industry. Throughout my entire career, events and parties were a part of it in some way. In my younger years, I used to spend hours planning my birthday parties, with elaborate themes, elements and decor. I started my first job shortly out of high school, working at a local party store in Port Moody. I loved this job, it was so much fun helping customers find the items they needed, I even learned a thing or two about balloon decor. During that time I also started working for a party company franchise doing onsite setup of games, face-painting and balloon twisting.
At one point I also worked as an intern for a wedding planning company, and later on worked as a client services manager in the rental industry. Today I work as a full time Event Coordinator for a Vancouver based non-profit. In 2022 I graduated from BCIT in their Event Marketing Management program, and I really enjoyed the time I spent in school. My creativity, obsession to detail, and overthinking has benefited my career in events and weddings. I look forward to wedding days, the adrenaline and emotions are what keep me coming back for more.
