Karen just loves weddings!! It is a true passion. A hobby would be something for a few years, but Karen has been in the wedding industry for ___ years.... that's a lifestyle by now. We are so thankful she has joined our team to bring so much of her background. Karen has a strict office routine that keeps her organized & professional by day, but then can throw on her party hat for a night of weddings! Karen's other assets are her love for charcuterie tables, making friends with everyone she meets & remembering faces, names, & events she has worked! Karen holds high standards for those on her team & those standards we hope will spread as we all continue to learn from each other.
