A culmination of all of these experiences and my education led me to creating this company, Designs Plus Events! I have pursued owning this company wholeheartedly since I was a teenager!

I have been a Professional in the Wedding & Events industry since 2008. Beyond my years of weddings planning experience, I have also planned & coordinated corporate conferences, events for medical professionals, university events including student entrepreneurship competitions, inter-professional events, faith-based events, church events, banquets, fully virtual events, baby showers, anniversary parties, and fourteen simultaneous escape rooms run 3x in a row (42 rooms in 3 hours total)! One summer, this non-athletic girl even managed to plan a summer sports camp for junior high students! For eight years, I was part of the planning and implementation of a fundraising walk for research about Lupus. I love how each of these events has challenged and grown me as a wedding and event planner, but if I had to pick a favorite event, I would confidently say "Weddings are my jam!"
 
I desire for all brides to be as calm as I was on my wedding day! So calm in fact, I learned later my sweet bridesmaids were betting on if and when I would have a Wedding Planner “I-need-to-be-the-leader-right-now” moment, but I never did + it's not my style! One of my secrets was hiring vendors I completely trusted who fulfilled their roles and allowed my husband and I to simply enjoy our day! Allowing you to enjoy those "forever moments" on your big day is the heartbeat of our company!

Quality Time is ranked as my top love language because I love gathering people together for a reason to celebrate, a common purpose, to share a meal,
go on an adventure, or strengthen a bond!

IT's REALLY NO SURPRISE...
