What if I told you that you could accelerate your growth within the wedding industry?

That you could:
▪️ raise your prices, then raise them again. And again.
▪️ start attracting clients that you are SO excited to work with
▪️ book your dream weddings on repeat

But more importantly, you could do these things while you:

▫️ work less, so you can spend more time doing what you love
▫️ serve your clients even better
▫️ avoid burnout as a wedding creative
▫️ create a legacy

All of these things are possible for you. You just need a little bit of guidance.

I’m so excited to announce that the doors open once again to Elevate Mastermind on Friday, April 1.

Elevate Mastermind is my signature program, that combines video modules with live 1:1 coaching, asset reviews, a community of ambitious pros, and so much more.

🎧 NEW EPISODE // Today on the podcast I have the pleasure chatting with Gretchen Culver of .events about a new trend in the industry born of necessity from the pandemic: Micro Weddings.

Although she didn’t realize it at the time, Gretchen’s desire to run her own business started at a young age with her summer lemonade stands. After college, a lemonade stand didn’t seem to be the best way to pay back her student loans, so she entered the world of events working for a catering company. She quickly fell in love with weddings and has been creating them ever since.

Over the past 14 years, Gretchen has worked in almost every area of the industry. She launched her own event planning company, Rocket Science Events, in 2010, hoping to revolutionize weddings. In the same revolutionary spirit she launched Minne Weddings in 2020.
She has been named one of the “30 under 40 to watch” by Special Events magazine and one of BRIDES and Martha Stewart’s Top Planners. Her work has won international awards and been featured in magazines, online and on TV. She's a past president of the Minneapolis-St. Paul ILEA chapter, founding member of the Small Wedding Society, and a proud Ravenclaw.

When she isn’t working, she enjoys spending time drinking wine, eating good food, building LEGO with her kids, and Netflix and chilling with her husband.
