Now Coaching Brides

In addition to coaching in the four areas outlined in the Coaching Section of this site, I am now blending the many lessons learned from being a Bride and planning my wedding with my many years of assisting people during times of transition.  

As a Bridal Coach, I help women navigate the emotional aspects of being a Bride, planning a wedding and preparing for marriage as well as provide support with the many opportunities (and challenges) that come during this important time in a woman's life.

I am passionate about working with people, particularly when they are experiencing times of transition as More truly is Available when we enter into new ways of being! 

Few transitions are as impactful as being engaged and getting married.  It is times like this that a Coach can be of great assistance.  As I Bridal Coach, I provide clients with the following:

• Listening—whether you need to vent, process or problem solve!
• Assessing what is most important to you and ensuring that you stay true to those things as the planning process unfolds.
• Balancing what you, your fiancé, your families and other loved ones desire in terms of the wedding and the reception. 
• Determining how to best honor your families, your culture/s and your personalities to make your wedding uniquely your own.
• Helping you remember that you are preparing for a marriage while you are planning for a wedding. 
• The Ten Keys to maintaining your sanity during this very exciting (yet often stressful) time.
• Graceful responses to the many (and often unbelievable) requests people make of the happy couple.
• What no one tells you about the many blessings and lessons that come from merging two families.

How is working with a Bridal Coach different from working with a Wedding Planner?

Most Wedding Planners typically focus on the logistics of planning the wedding and reception (ordering flowers, hiring a band and photographer, finding a caterer, negotiating prices, etc.).   As a Bridal Coach, I focus on the emotional aspects of being a Bride, planning a wedding and preparing for marriage.   Although I am most interested in Coaching Brides, I do have extensive event planning experience that allows me to answer related questions and minimize the stress related to the many decisions that are involved with planning the biggest event of your life.

Wendy is amazing!  She had all of the tools I needed to handle the various situations that came up during the wedding planning process, ideas I never would have thought of because I was in the middle of it all.    Wendy helped me make my wedding day truly one of the best days of my life!

Mrs. Marieanne Quiroz, Married September 4th, 2004

Planning my wedding was something I had always dreamed of, but when it came time to actually make decisions I began to feel really overwhelmed.  Talking with Wendy helped me to stay organized and, more importantly, she was always there to listen.

Allison Parker, Married April 21st, 2006

I felt a great sense of safety and trust in Wendy’s ability to help me navigate the stress of  wedding planning, and even more importantly, preparing for my marriage.  Her wealth of experience and resources were invaluable for my husband and me in beginning our married lives together.
