Personal Info
I’m a creative at heart with a big imagination and a love for all things beautiful and thoughtfully planned. Give me a great event to design, a cozy home project to tackle, or a quiet afternoon on the back porch with a good book and a glass of wine, and I’m in my happy place. I fell head over heels for wedding planning because of its ever-changing trends, endless creativity, and the thrill of making sure no two weddings are ever the same—each one tells its own story.
I met my husband, Kelly, while we were both in college in Illinois. We spent two years as best friends before realizing we were meant to be more, and the rest is history. As an Army Medivac pilot, Kelly’s career took us on quite the adventure, moving us from place to place over the years. We spent four wonderful years in Savannah, Georgia before receiving orders to Ft. Campbell, Kentucky—a move that felt especially meant to be, as my twin sister Jackie lives just down the road in Nashville.
Today, Kelly and I call Tennessee home, where we live on a beautiful mountain farm surrounded by lots of love, a little chaos, and plenty of animals. We share our days with our dogs Hunter, Thor + Bigsby, our cat Judy, and our ever-growing flock of chickens, ducks, and geese—proof that life is always better with a bit of mountain charm and a lot of heart.

Professional Experience
I have been in the wedding industry in various capacities over the last 17 years. In high school and college I worked for a catering company where I learned the ins and outs of planning and executing successful weddings- from napkin folds and flatware placement, to the send-off, every detail of a wedding was ingrained in me. Weddings were fun and hard work, but I hadn’t learned that they would be my passion just yet. I received my Bachelor’s Degree in Psychology and then went on to get my Master’s Degree in Public Administration and HR. I knew a year after graduation that my degrees were not my passion- weddings were. I started It Takes 2 Event Planners with my sister Jaclyn and now I can say that I truly love what I get to do every day.
My favorite moment of a wedding is right before my bride or groom walks down the aisle. I am alone with them for a brief moment, I fluff the dress, fix a tie and they look me in the eye and take a breath. I say “Are you ready?” They nod or whisper “yes” and then off they go down the aisle to their forever.
