As a veteran Bridal Consultant and Special Events Coordinator, with years of experience, The Bride Lady has been consultant to weddings ranging in price from approximately $1,500 - to $100,000 plus. 

Appearances at Bridal Shows, as well as participation on Talk Shows, comes second nature to The Bride Lady as does the advice brides seek from her.

Projects & Activities

After spending a number of years as a Special Events Coordinator before making the transition to Wedding Consultant, it was in this capacity that I met and planned events for film and stage stars, CEO's, Chairman's of Boards, Presidents, and Executives of small and large companies alike. I was also privileged to know and work with on several events, the late Presidential Liaison to a former President of the United States.

My company and training materials can actually save the bride, company or organization many dollars because we, at The Bride Lady, not only employ the techniques of "how" and "when" to cut costs, but we teach them to our students. This keeps the budgets "cost efficient and cost effective" regardless of the price range.

Why? Because "that's our job"! This leaves the bride or organization free to relax and enjoy a wonderful event. As a "Career Expert in Bridal Consulting" for a major company, in the United States and Canada, my career advice is available to students at over 1500 universities, colleges and high schools. Additionally, I have appeared on various radio and television talk shows and have been interviewed by CBS radio and major newspapers. Furthermore, I conduct Bridal Seminars, and have been asked to lend my endorsement to a wedding CD for a recording company in England. As a Bridal Consultant, my weddings have ranged in price from $1,500 to $100,000 plus. I have counseled many events and brides' weddings through to a successful conclusion. It has, indeed, been a wonderful experience. As author/founder/owner of The Bride Lady Wedding Consultant's Training Program, it is very gratifying to teach others what I have learned over three decades.

Featured Newspapers and Magazine Columnist

"Ask The Bride Lady" is also a featured Wedding Advice Column in newspapers and magazines. My mail arrives daily and you should see it! Some of it even shocks me and I thought I was un-shockable. Whether brides need a shoulder to cry on, someone to sit on them to make a point or just a whimsical reply, these brides feel they can "Ask The Bride Lady" anything and they do.

Author of Five Books

As someone who cares deeply about brides and their weddings, other accomplishments include the five books I have written. My first book, "The Bride and Groom's Complete Workbook" was published in 1981 and subsequently three more wedding books have followed. "Your Wedding Planner" and "Champagne Weddings On A Limited Budget". 

All books are available to order at this site.

As author/founder/owner of The Bride Lady Wedding Consultant's Training Program, my fourth book, not only counsel students, but also provides my training program books to those aspiring to become Bridal Consultants. It's popularity is circling the globe as students in the United States, United Kingdom (UK), Canada, Germany, Egypt, Australia, Malaysia, Bahamas, West Indies, Argentina, and India are trained in this profession by The Bride Lady.

In my fifth book, "Breathing Room - How I Quit Smoking and Lost 33 Pounds - So Can You", The Bride Lady tells how she kicked the habit and LOST weight at the same time.
