Team Member POV: Ali & Vincent

I originally met Lacey over some tea and macaroons at Aroma Cafe. We talked about the wedding industry and I picked her brain about her passions. She’s been interning with Amber Events ever since. What a great addition to the team. Thanks Lacey for taking time to fill this out.xo! {nira}

How did you learn about Interning or Assisting for Amber Events?

I went online and searched for companies affiliated with the wedding industry and Amber Events was one of the highest ranked.

Tell us about yourself and how it relates to the wedding industry.

I currently work full time and have been looking for a career change for a while now. I absolutely love throwing parties that involve little details, lots of friends and great memories so it just seems right to go into wedding industry.

What tasks did you complete for this wedding?

I helped set up the ceremony site which included placing personalized sunglasses at each guests seat, setting up the gift table, posting signs where needed, placing table cloths, checking on seating arrangements, making sure the reception timeline ran smoothly and helping any other way I could.

What surprised you?

How much fun every single person had. Everyone was laughing, intermingling and dancing the whole night even though some guests didn’t speak English and many guests flew in from out of town and didn’t know each other.

What is your favorite part of this wedding?

Seeing the final outcome of the ceremony and reception site. All the hard work of set up was well worth it.

What shoes did you wear?

All black flats.

The uniform for the Amber Events staff is a black button down shirt and slacks. What did you do to Jazz up your look?

I wore a few pieces of jewelry to amp things up and wore vibrant eye makeup.

What is your favorite wedding/romantic scene from a movie?

Definitely has to be the “Notebook”. When Rachel McAdams runs and jumps into Ryan Goslings arms while it’s pouring rain! It’s so romantic and their chemistry is amazing.

Do you have any words for anyone wanting to join the wedding industry? It’s a lot of hard work, but the final outcome is extremely rewarding once you see how happy the couples are.

Final Comments:

I am so happy to be able to work with Amber and Nira! Both ladies have a never-ending wealth of knowledge about All Things Weddings.
