events
In 2011, I hosted my first event and fell in love.
It began with hosting charity events in Arizona, then Seattle, and quickly evolved into wedding planning where I found my true passion. I love guiding couples through the planning process and making their day as stress-free as possible and create a space for them to fully enjoy their day and be present with their loved ones.
I specialize in intimate weddings and events (typically under 100 guests total), and my base is in the Skagit Valley and the San Juan Islands but I am also happy to travel to help make your day flawless.
While I typically only take on a couple of events per year, but am happy to talk about how I might be of service and if we are a good fit!
I currently host Makers Markets and Retreats around Skagit Valley which has taken up a majority of my schedule. Visit www.CreativeAvenueNW.com to learn more!
Event Planning
I was fortunate enough to be trained and work with a team of amazing planners at Bridal Bliss. Their team has a base both in Seattle and in Portland, and I extended our services north to the Skagit Valley and the San Juan Islands.
If you are planning a larger wedding of 100 people or more, I highly recommend reaching out to Bridal Bliss and working with any of their coordinators - they are an absolute pleasure to work with and do a spectacular job in all wedding services.
Since 2021, I have taken a step back from wedding planning and working on the Bridal Bliss team, but still offer planning services for couples who are planning small, more intimate ceremonies. I currently offer day-of facilitation services for couples who are the right fit.
