I love love so much that I figured out how to get married twice.
The first time, my husband and I eloped. The second, we partied a year later with a traditional celebration surrounded by friends and family.
The party.
The elopement.
My love for weddings goes back further than that though. My eldest sister had me as a junior bridesmaid when I was young, and from there I would wait with anticipation for the next wedding to take place in our small town church. While I waited, I practiced the processional hymns on the piano at home.
I have been showing up for those moments ever since. I just did not know it was the thread running through all of it until much later. A career seeded while working at a Houston boutique venue, a decade of life, and a whole lot of figuring it out along the way. I did not come to weddings through a career path. I came through a life lived through intuition, love, and hope.
Characterized by constant change, activity, or progress.
A person who does not stay long in the same place. A wanderer.
Two people. One business.

I did not build my career in one place.
I grew up one of eleven kids in a house of thirteen. Systems were not optional, they were how we survived. That instinct followed me into every room I have ever worked in. Large corporations, small boutiques, a cargo trailer Ben and I built by hand and lived out of for two years, a Spokane nonprofit through COVID, and a decade building a business from the ground up. Every kind of stakes. Turns out when you have done everything, you get pretty good at fixing anything.
On the event side: a boutique Houston venue, a 40-vendor expo, recurring community events, and weddings where the couple got to be guests at their own celebration. I show up so you do not have to feel any of it. The joy is yours. The chaos is mine.

Ben is Dynomadic’s co-founder. But more than that, he is the kind of person who makes sure the pipes don’t freeze for an entire neighborhood during a blizzard and never mentions it afterward. He will mow a lawn that needs mowing. He will stop in a parking lot for a stranger. He lives by two lines that tell you everything about him: love reciprocates, fear perpetuates.
Ben is not taking clients, but when Erin needs him, he shows up. A room to flip, a heavy lift on a long event day, a hard problem that needs an honest opinion. Willing and able, every time.
