I am Carrie Moe and I have been in the wedding industry for forever it feels like...since 2009 to be exact. I have built/branded two businesses offering the exact same thing. One failed (Boo hoo!), the other went wildly successful and had international clients in one year!
I have learned what makes a business stand out and book high end clients that respect your aesthetic and trust your creative eye. It's imperative to build a portfolio that attracts the correct people and repels those who are just price shopping, all this while fully living the lifestyle you want. Sounds impossible? I did it and so can you!
I literally live in the middle of cows and almond orchards but have had wedding clients fly me to Nepal, New Zealand, France, Italy, and Hawaii, been printed in Martha Stewart Weddings and People Magazine, with commercial clients like Zappos, Berta Bridal, Ritz Carlton, The Mrs Box, and Minted. My biggest joy is coaching others to love the people they live with and life they live and to build their business with intention and no regrets!
