HEY I'M VANESSA!

I spend your day listening for laughter and watching for hugs… cuz that’s where the magic is!

As the saying goes, sharing is caring, so let’s get to know each other! But I get that it can be awkward sharing over the interwebs, so I’ll go first!

I believe life is too short to do shit you don't love.

I often forget just how short I actually am. (if we haven’t met IRL yet, I’m 4’11” and a bit. The “bit” is VERY important haha!)

I believe that putting out good into the world always comes back to you. It’s your job to keep an open mind and heart to recognize it when it returns.

I dream of chasing the sun and snow year-round.

Sometimes I need to be reminded to shower.

I believe in always having your bags ready for last-minute adventures.

 MY FAVOURITE THINGS

Snowboarding gets me through the grey Vancouver winters. But I am always ready for summer in March.

I have incredibly low standards for what I'm willing to watch, yet draw the line at most reality tv. Go figure.

I believe the day you stop learning is the day you start getting old.

I’m learning to embrace how much of a crier I am.

MEET DENNIS

I’m so lucky I get to work with my hubby. He lets me be extra bossy on wedding days, is an extra set of hands to help carry things and is kind of a dog-whisperer.

If he joins us for your elopement day, he will be the calm voice when the nerves and feelings start to hit you, as excited for your day as I am, and of course, taker of killer photos!

Watch this video to get a quick high level of what to expect from me
