Welcome to Dapper Retriever!

Hi! I am so excited to start this journey with you all. It is surreal to officially be a business owner! It’s something that I never knew I wanted, but now that it’s here, I couldn’t be more excited. I’ve been doing events for nearly a decade at this point and I’ve met so many amazing people in the DMV and beyond doing what I love - creating unique, exciting events that fit the clients perfectly. My favorite thing about events is seeing how each client puts their own stamp on them. You can do a million weddings, and none will be the same. Every couple brings something different to the table!

When I was trying to come up with a name for my company, my inspiration came directly from my favorite pup in the world - my dog Alex, an English Cream Golden Retriever. Alex is such a big part of my life, and it just felt right to name this company in honor of him. There’s also a little easter egg in the name: Dapper Retriever Events & Weddings. Look, I love stuff like that, what can I say?

I hope to use this blog to chat about events, highlight vendors, and talk about hot topics in the DMV wedding/event scene!

Looking forward to this year, I can’t wait to see what it brings for Dapper Retriever. I hope that you will follow this journey with me - follow me on Insta @dapperretriever - link at the top of the page! If you are looking for a coordinator who is great at what they do, genuinely interested in you and your vision, and invested in making that vision come to life, look no further! Let’s make this thing happen!
