Tell us a bit about your professional background. What brought you to the event industry?
I started at Beets Hospitality Group 9 years ago and fell in love with the company and our service. From there, I was able to work my way up and experience different jobs within the company, such as server, setup, bartender, banquet captain, event assist, and now I am a Sales & Event Coordinator.
What do you love about your job?
Very simply, the people. From the amazing couples that I get to work with and experience the most special day with to my fellow coworkers and our extended family of vendors!
What’s the most memorable reaction you’ve experienced from a couple leading up to their wedding day?
Being a part of the sales team, I am able to experience the joy of couples first getting into the wedding industry and the excitement of new beginnings. Seeing the sparkle in their eyes when they have selected their venue.
If you could share one wedding planning tip with an engaged couple, what would you tell them?
Cliche to say, but to remember this day is about the two of you. You are going to get so many opinions from vendors and family, and it can get overwhelming. So always make sure to check in with one another and really talk about what is most important to the two of you!
Carly’s dedication to creating unforgettable wedding experiences and her genuine care for her clients make her an incredible asset to any couple’s special day. If you’re looking for a Sales & Event Coordinator who will make your wedding planning journey enjoyable and stress-free, Carly at Palm Event Center and Casa Real is the perfect choice.
