Our Team
Abbie Dennison
Venue Director
What is the most inspiring part of your job? So many things. I think what inspires me the most is getting to empower women on our team while giving back to women in our community. There is nothing that motivates me more when I have had a hard day.
What is your favorite part of a wedding? The moment just before a bride walks down the aisle. It is the moment you feel all the emotions from the day at once. Excitement, nerves, a little fear, joy, anticipation... I wish I could bottle that feeling up!
Coffee or Cocktails? What is your go-to order? Impossible to choose one over the other! A black pour-over in the morning, and Gin & Tonic with lots of lime at night!
Danielle Davis
Assistant Director
Favorite wedding trend? Fun culinary experiences! I recently saw an oyster bar at a wedding - so much fun!
What is the most inspiring part of your job? I love seeing people's families and friends come together to celebrate them in special moments. It's so inspiring and rewarding to see.
What fictional place would you most like to visit? Why? I recently read the ACOTAR book series so only book nerds will get this, but The Night Court. A place with castles and stars - I'm in!

Booking Coordinator
What is your favorite part of a wedding? Ceremony, especially during the couples reciting their vows to one another. Always brings me to tears! I adore hearing how much love and affirmation they have for each other!
What is something small that always makes you smile? Fresh Flowers! :)
Coffee or Cocktails? What is your go-to order? Coffee for sure. I need a cup a day to function! My favorite these days is a Cinnamon Dolce Latte at Starbucks but most days I make a French Press at home and add a splash of creamer...
Alyssa Westerink
VENUE COORDINATOR
Favorite wedding trend? Intimate ceremonies- maybe this is my introverted side showing, but intimate ceremonies have a certain beauty and energy about them that I love!
When you were a kid, what did you want to be when you grew up? I was always interested in Earth Science, such as volcanology, seismology, or meteorology. I grew to become passionate about environmental science as well, and recently graduated with a major in Environmental and Sustainability studies!
Coffee or Cocktails? What is your go-to order? While I do love a good cocktail, coffee will always be a favorite of mine- I love an iced peppermint latte or a cafe miel!
Stochia McDaniel
VENUE COORDINATOR
Coffee or Cocktails? What is your go to order?
I can never say no to a classic iced coffee with a splash of milk, but lately my go to coffee order has been an espresso tonic with a hint of citrus!
The night is over, the event went off without a hitch, you hop in your car, and you... Immediately turn on that one song the DJ played during the reception that I hadn't thought about in years but absolutely love!
What is the most inspiring part of your job? The sense of team that all of the vendors have on a wedding day! I love that all of us are working so hard behind the scenes to ensure that the couple and all of their loved ones can relax and celebrate knowing we've got everything covered!
Abigail Parkinson
VENUE COORDINATOR
Favorite wedding trend? Mismatch bridesmaid dresses
What is the most inspiring part of your job? The most inspiring part of my job is being able to bring someone's dream wedding to life through all the picture-perfect details. Most couples have a vision for their big day from color schemes, and table decor, to ceremony details and much more! Being able to be part of these big moments in others lives brings me such joy!
One food you refuse to share with others? Olive Garden breadsticks! Ever since I was little by favorite place to eat has always been Olive Garden! Most of the time I have to take most of my meal home because I fill up on so many breadsticks first.
