NC Wedding Planners ~The Divine Ms B--Rebecca Rose Events

riday morning was beautiful. Dad and I started the morning quite early--5am to be exact--with a long run. We finished up...hit the showers...and then headed out to Winston Salem to meet with Becca. Our destination of choice--Krankies. I like Krankies....a lot. I like that it has so much personality. I like that their coffee is always perfect (and I am a coffee snob, to say the least)....that the crowd is eclectic...and that I always see someone I know there. If you live in the area and have never been, do yourself a favor and check it out. They roast their own beans, PS...so you can take the Krankies goodness home with you to enjoy EVERY.SINGLE.DAY.

SO the reason we were there. Becca. I met Becca (Rebecca Rose Events) a couple of weeks ago. She is refreshing. She is energetic. She is JUST the wedding planner that I would have wanted when I walked down the aisle a few years ago. AND Becca is just the person I have been looking for as a photographer/wedding geek--the type of planner that I want to dream big with...the type that is imaginative...the type that is passionate. One of the things I like best about Becca (other than the fact that she is from the great state of Texas!!) is that she spent lots of time as a "scrub". She worked every facet of the event/wedding industry before becoming a planner. She found value in intimately knowing the industry so that she could be effective as a planner. WOW. People like her are few and far between--especially in my generation. Most of us think we can be a paid professional without ever having learned the subtle nuances of our "art". Not Becca--she knows her "art"...she knows her business and knows it well. In my opinion...she's one of the best there is. I love her drive. I love her vision. I love her passion. I love being associated with her. AND I'm super excited about a little project we have in the works.

So just a heads up...keep a lookout for her. She's a mover :)
