I am delighted to share that Your Las Vegas Wedding Concierge is in the news again!

I am always so honored and delighted to be contacted by the press to share my love of weddings and particularly Las Vegas weddings.
It would seem I have become somewhat of an ambassador for Destination Las Vegas Weddings to some of the wedding media. It’s a title, whether official or not, that I am proud to hold as I truly love my adopted city of Las Vegas and creating memorable & Stylish Celebrations of Love & Life here!

As many of you may know already and for those who don’t, I am a Hamilton, Ontario, Canada native. I grew up and lived in Hamilton & Toronto until I moved to Las Vegas in 2000 to marry the Love of my Life (at Treasure Island-our sentimental hotel) and open my wedding consultancy firm, Your Las Vegas Wedding Concierge.

So what makes this piece of news so special to me is both my wonderful clients, Stacey & Aaron, who married at Wynn, Las Vegas Wedding Salon in 2008 and I are highlighted in an article in a special wedding feature for the Weekend Post section of Canada’s National Post newspaper. The Weekend Post is printed in every newspaper across Canada in the Canada.com media network.

It was somewhat serendipitous that the reporter found my blog, called me and found out I was from Canada too. Stacey & Aaron are such a fun, stylish couple.

It was a total joy to plan and produce their beautiful wedding celebration with many great memories.
I am thrilled they had this opportunity to tell the rest of Canada (and beyond) about
their Las Vegas wedding experience and how they chose to celebrate it with LOVE, LIFE & great STYLE!!

Thanks you two for being a part of this!

Celebrate Your Day with Love, Life & Style!

Wedding Concierge in New Orleans for The Special Event

Monday, January 11th, 2010


Your Las Vegas Wedding Concierge is headed to “The Big Easy”, New Orleans, LA, for an exciting week to attend The Special Event Show 2010. I will be out of the office from January 11-17th.


The Special Event Show is THE world’s premier conference and tradeshow for event professionals (including weddings of course) and includes the very best in educational, inspiration and networking to get the latest and greatest in the newest and exciting trends across the industry.

It’s a great chance to learn and be inspired from “the best of the best” around the country and around the world!

Your Las Vegas Wedding Concierge will once again be attending “The Wedding Luncheon”, this year featuring guest speaker Darcy Miller of Martha Stewart Weddings! There will also be incredible inspiration to “oooh & ahhh” over provided by some amazing designers including the lovely Sasha Souza in the “Wedding Gallery”.

And what place could be better to throw a conference about throwing a party than a party city like New Orleans?!!! It is nice to see that this great city is getting back on it’s feet after such a tough 5 years.

I am so excited as this will be my first time ever in “The Crescent City”. I love the music, I love the cuisine and I am sure I am going to love it’s spirit too! I was just reading the Experience New Orleans Website and it looks like I am going to have to brush up on all the local Cajun/Creole lingo though! Should be FUN, FUN!

So as they say in “The Big Easy”….“Laissez le Bon temp rouler (Lazay Lay Bon Tom Roulay)”

LET THE GOOD TIMES ROLL!!
