About Us
This all started from one botched wedding party and a tired, slightly disappointed bride called Claudine. The wedding was supposed to be the perfect day for her, one that was truly about her alone. She wanted everything to go just right, so she ran about planning, organizing, talking to caterers and decorators and makeup, all while trying to shop for a dress and ring and write her vows. She was the event planner, wedding planning consultant, and bride. All at the same time.
The day came, and Claudine didn’t realize she had somehow not booked the band for music. Someone had to become an instant DJ, and though the wedding managed to happen without too many hassles, Claudine was exhausted. She had run herself into the ground, and yet she had almost ruined her wedding. It would no longer be the perfect day. Any time she thought of her wedding, she would forever remember the panic when she realized there was no band.
