I've never had an intern before Taylor. She was definitely more than an intern and one of the smartest things I have done for my business this year! She acted as my assistant at every wedding, was extremely organized and detail oriented. Taylor was a very valuable addition to my team and I'm sad to see her gone for the winter as I could desperately use her help all year around. She'll be joining my wedding team again next year when she comes back to the Northwest!

How long have you been working in the wedding industry?

Officially, for 7 months.

When did you first become interested in the wedding and event industry? 

Almost 2 years ago. But I have always loved weddings, special events and parties. So I was surprised I didn't think about it sooner!

What is your favorite part of living in the Northwest?

I love having four seasons. I love the lakes and having a white Christmas. I have been able to travel quite a bit, but Coeur d'Alene is honestly one of my favorite places to be in the whole world! :)

What is your family like?

Ridiculous. We love to have fun, and we're always remodeling our house. I have four nieces and nephews who I adore!

One or Two quirky facts about yourself?

I have never colored my hair.

I am a chocoholic and love Audrey Hepburn movies.

Other ventures? Blogs? Projects? Businesses?

I'm moving to Vail, CO. for the winter season with my best friend.

I ramble on my blog simplythethought.blogspot.com/ (about weddings, football, movies, my weird life) and continue my love for random photography on my other two blog pages
