My approach to weddings was shaped long before I entered the events world. Influenced by a family rooted in interiors and craftsmanship, and inspired by the calm of the mountains and the movement of the ocean, I’ve always been drawn to environments that evoke feeling. Paired with a background in science, business, and accounting, I bring both creativity and structure to the way I design and plan.
I’m drawn to bold palettes, layered details, and meaningful elements that reflect a couple’s world - the places they’ve explored, the styles they gravitate toward, and the atmosphere they want to share with the people they love.
As your Napa & Sonoma County based wedding planner, my role is to guide you through a structured planning process, turning your influences into an immersive, heartfelt celebration. At Love Within the Details, you are the priority, supported, cared for, and free to be fully present as your day unfolds.

Inspiration is a beautiful beginning, but turning ideas into a cohesive celebration requires thoughtful direction. Colors, textures, guest experience and logistics all work together - and without a guiding hand, it's easy for the vision to lose clarity. With intentional support, your ideas become a celebration that feels expressive, grounded and truly reflective of you.
