In school, I pursued a major that didn’t allow too much growth in terms of creativity. I’ve always had this artistic side of me that I never fostered or paid much attention to. So when I finally got closer to the finish line that would be graduation, I did my research and applied to wedding companies that were hiring for the summer.
I landed an internship with Couture Events, the crème de la crème of wedding coordinating companies. During my short time here I’ve learned so much more than I could’ve asked for. Whether it be the smallest details that make up a wedding, to technicalities such as the average actual cost of one—this internship taught me more than I could’ve bargained for!
Every inch of the office space reflected what couture stood for-- grace, charm, and beauty
Once a week I would
meet with the owner and lead stylist of Couture Events, (Krystel) and we would discuss
weekly assignments. These ranged anywhere from helping organize bachelorette
party ideas to creating dream boards for future brides. The biggest assignment
I had for this summer was planning my own wedding using their online platform (and Yikes! Did I go over the
initial budget). I loved our one on one meetings at the studio, I was able to
learn from the best and have my opinions heard.
Here are some of my wedding
highlights from this summer:
Location: Il Fornaio, Coronado
Location: Carmel Mountain Ranch Country Club,
California
Location: El Cajon, California
Location: The Inn at Rancho Santa Fe, California
I feel extremely
grateful for the time I spent with Couture Events, and am sad that these fairytale
weddings have come to an end. But what a summer it has been to experience something
as magical as this. Thank you Couture Events for this summer affair!
