Hard Work Does Pay Off

The fact that it is June and almost July right now is really something else. Six months have gone by in such a whirlwind. During this time we were able to have a successful event with Brides Against Breast Cancer. We were able to sell over 20 gowns and raise money for the organization. It was a wonderful experience and the best part is they're coming back to our great city and we get to do it again this fall in November. With the work we did with them, we now have the privilege of now being a preferred vendor with Brides Against Breast Cancer.


We also had the pleasure of planning a very intimate dinner for two. We were able to plan it all in a very short period of time (9 days to be exact) and they both loved the outcome. From the personal chef to the stringed duo, the evening turned out great. Our very own Juanita Michelle planned and executed the elegant and fabulous place settings and decor.  

 All the while we were planning these events and doing things to help promote our business, something great happened. We won an award! We were selected to received the 2014 Kansas City Award in the Event Planner category by the Kansas City Award Program. Out of all the planners that are in the city, we were chosen for this year. What an honor and a blessing to have whoever it was in our community to nominate us and then for us to be chosen.

Never give up on your dream - Even if it takes longer than you would like by weeks, months or even years. Keep working your passion and doing what you love because you never know when what you do will bet noticed by the right people. This award was not sought after, but was given to us by our community. No matter how big or small your events may be, you making a difference can put you in some wonderful positions.

5 Stars on TheKnot.com

Just wanted to do a quick post sharing our good news. One of our clients did a review for us on her recent wedding this past June. We were blessed that because of our planning, we were able to receive 5 stars in all of the categories.

Being in the planning business, it is important that you are mindful of what your clients want and to give them a very positive experience. You have to show them that you are confident in your craft and be able to display all the qualities you speak about via your website, social media, etc. as well as when you meet with them. When you do all of those things, you will have clients that will appreciate you and will hopefully use you over and over again.

We are so thankful to our clients for thinking that much about us to take the time to write something hat other potential brides can see - especially on such a well known site like TheKnot.com That will truly opens doors for us. We would like to send a big "THANK YOU" to Larissa and Byron Gasaway for letting us be a part of your wonderful day.
