First, I would like to thank you for stopping by Weddings & Events by Ethelle's website. It is a wonderful opportunity to even be able to offer you my services.  I hope that I will be able to assist you in some way. Hoping we can build a lasting connection for all your event needs.

What determines success? Success as a Professional Bridal Consultant is knowledge, which is also the basis of confidence. Confidence leads to professionalism, creativity, and excellence in your work. Word of mouth recommendations and the establishment of your reputation as an authority on weddings.

In knowing this let me share a little about myself with you:

I was born in a rural part of Florida. Raised by my grandparents until my high school years. I graduated from C. Leon King High School in the early 90's. Went on to become a Certified Medical Assistant with my EKG & Phlebotomy License. I grew away from the medical field and started to do small events for friends and family members while holding down a full time job with a major airline. I pursued this career as a past time and have grown in it in many ways.

I was married in September 2011 and planned my entire event until they made me go get dressed for my own ceremony. I am a proud parent of 1 biological son and 2 wonderful step-children. I planned my first wedding in July 2005. I have planned many events since then. This is my passion and my dream. I thank my family for their love & support.

I started my Bridal Consulting  business with a vision and a dream filled with passion. My business is to make sure your day goes as planned. I realized that I wanted to work in the event industry and have focused on weddings and party planning. I decided to take a Professional Bridal Consultant class and receive my Diploma. Graduated and received my Professional Bridal Consultant Diploma from Penn Foster.

Upon taking the step to my future, I wanted to ensure I was a member of a prestigious organization. Before completing my classes I became a Novice Member with the Association of Bridal Consultants.Since completing my required classes I am a Professional Bridal Consultant Member of the Association of Bridal Consultants since December 1st  2011.

Since completeing these things in my life, I stay current with the Wedding/Event Industry by attending Local Network Meetings offered by Association of Bridal Concultants on a monthly basis. I have also taken the Wilton Cake Decorating Class Parts 

In August & November of 2013 I assisted a Senior Prof. Bridal Consultant with my first Nigerian Wedding and Outdoor Mexican Wedding. Both were amazing events and I was truly honored to be able to assist her. With each passing day, I try to add to my portfolio and keep myself informed so that I can do a great job for "you"...the next client for Moments of a Lifetime.
