The extended kudos are not enough to express our gratitude, but here are the amazing peeps who helped pull this #halloweenwedding off! #letthemagicbegin #justineandpatrick Last weekend was probably one of the most compelling times in my event career as a planner. My heart is full and I feel incredibly blessed to have the opportunity to be part of the love story of one very special couple. Justine & Patrick Peterson, I wanted to say how incredibly moved I was when we first met in September to get to know you and start this planning journey together. Both your combined humour, laid back personality, and courage inspired me greatly. Meeting your families and friends was a bonus, as I saw first hand how much love you are surrounded by. Oct 31, 2014 will be a day I will not forget and will always go down in the history books as THE Halloween wedding! Thank you Danaye Maier, Marc Virgin-Radio Michaels, and Fuzzy of 98.5 Virgin Radio Calgary for spearheading this idea to fulfill their Bucket List and challenging me to plan this event in under 2 months. Who knew what an outpouring of support we would get from so many Calgary businesses and event professionals.
