Hi!
My name is Candice.
I’m what you might call, a consummate planner. Growing up, I’d get starry-eyed when even the simplest celebration was nearing. My mind would race with all the things the event HAD to have in order to be perfect. I never outgrew my obsession with events, instead it amplified...
I started Sweet Events because this is what I love to do. It’s my passion. I wholeheartedly believe that you and your family should enjoy your wedding day as much as your guests will, and I vow to do everything I can to ensure that happens. I love helping people celebrate, and I couldn't be more excited, or honored, to be part of your Special Day.
Quips + Quirks about me:
-
I could live on guacamole alone. No chips necessary.
-
I’m a Military Brat, born in Chicago, but raised all over.
-
I’ve called Austin home since back when South Park Meadows was still a meadow.
-
I’m responsible for three, two-legged male children, and two, four-legged children. Two of the five have super fluffy hair. My life is like a word problem.
-
I’m a huge ephemera nerd.
-
I have DIYed all the things. Seriously, all of them.
-
I MacGyvered a dress top out of a chair tie for a bridesmaid with a leaky water bra. For reals.
-
I crept down an aisle, ninja style, to set a chair at the altar in time to catch a fainting groomsman.
-
I’ve caught three falling wedding cakes in my hands, repaired a dozen wedding dresses, and held back hair for one flu-infected bride.
-
I walk the equivalent of nearly 10 miles while executing a wedding day.
