Your Very Own Personal Wedding Planner

Hello, I'm Chantal and thank you for dropping in on me!

You've probably read a few of my "Wedding Ideas" and are wondering who I am and how I came to be a Wedding Planner.

Since I don't like long stories, I'll bet you don't either, I'll keep this short but informative.

I'm an Accountant by education but prefer to be "out and about" and meeting new people.

I began my professional career on Wall Street and loved the excitement of the ups and downs of the Stock Market but did not enjoy the constant stress that I was under. I changed gears and worked as an Office Manager in a Bank until my daughter was born.

After my daughter's birth, I decided to take some time off and worked as a Volunteer in my local town, was part of the PTA at my daughter's school and did some Fund Raising for a camp for underprivileged, inner city children. When my daughter went to High School, she asked me to be a Substitute Teacher in her School. Working with High School students was a lot of fun and very rewarding but I was looking for something to do that would help others while earning an income.

As mentioned before, I'm a people person and enjoy putting smiles on people's faces. So when a friend of mine mentioned that I had a lot of experience as a Party Planner and that I should capitalize on my past experiences and become a Wedding Planner, it all came together and felt "right."

My next venture ~ learning about being a Wedding Consultant was easy, because I understand budgets, know how to listen to people's needs and have a keen sense of what works well and is in good taste.

My degree in Accounting taught me how to get to the bottom line as quickly as possible without overwhelming clients. One of my speech professors in College taught us that if you can't get your point across in less than 4 minutes, stop talking because no one is listening. I brought this skill to my Wedding Planning business, so you will notice that my web pages give lots of information without being wordy.

For me, the difficult part of my new career was learning how to build a Web Site. That's where my daughter, Chantal Jane came in. She's been an invaluable resource for building my Web Site and her exquisite taste has added another dimension to helping brides make good choices. I still struggle with the technical aspect of the Web Site – but I'm gaining on it. If you see something that needs to be added or changed, please contact me and I will be happy to do so. If you have any questions, please contact me and I will help resolve your issues and do everything I can to help you have the Wedding of your Dreams.

Being Your Very Own Personal Wedding Planner is important to me, so if you would like to leave me a story about your engagement or wedding, please write to me and I will post your story or pictures on my web site for your enjoyment.
