I’m going to ask a small favor of you: I want you to picture the most beautiful wedding
you have ever been to, or the most beautiful wedding you can think of.

Now I’d like you to consider how much planning and coordinating went into that one,
single night. So many people look forward to enjoying their engagements, but ﬁnd
themselves bogged down by the amount of work that goes into putting it together.

That’s where I come in. My name is Julie Carlson, my company is Our Love Story, and I would
like to coordinate your wedding for you.

Weddings are FUN
Root

My goal is to make sure that, above everything, you have FUN. Weddings are meant to be
enjoyed, and I can make that happen.

Weddings represent LOVE

I have always enjoyed creating beautiful things, and to me, weddings are the most beautiful
of all. Not only are they physically beautiful, but they are also emotionally beautiful. A
wedding means that two people are joining together to celebrate the love each has for the
other, and committing to a lifetime together.

Weddings can be nervewracking

I love to help people, and sometimes as a wedding coordinator, you also become a social
worker. I can be a strong backbone for an apprehensive bride, or the voice of reason for a
panicked mother-in-law to be.

LOVE above all else

I was raised to appreciate love over everything else.

Family ﬁrst

I come from a family where the people you love come ﬁrst, no matter what.

Supportive of friends and family
I have learned to be a supportive, helpful, and strong force of love in my friend’s and family’s
lives.

Lead by example
I would like to extend these character abilities to my clients, and be an example of how
strong love and appreciation can be when you truly care about someone.

Skills/Abilities: Organization

1. Skills/Abilities

Organized: It’s so important for a coordinator to be organized. I have been organizing
from the time I was a little girl, when I used to arrange all of our VHS tapes in alphabetical
order and store my toys by category.

I keep people on track

Now, as an adult, I have a job where I am responsible for making sure everyone in the
company is always on track and privy to new information.

I possess exceptional communication skills

Communication: Good communication, both written and verbal, is crucial in this ﬁeld. I have
to communicate with many different vendors at the same time, negotiate contracts, and
consistently update the bride and groom with any information they request. If there is a
change of plans, it is my job to make sure everyone has received (and understands!) the new
information or schedule.

I function well under stress

Stress Management

I have the ability to function extremely well under stress. If there is a room full of people
losing their heads, it becomes my personal mission to change the tone of the room and calm
everyone down so we are all able to think clearly.

I can make quick, logical decisions
Problem Solving and Logic

My ability to think through multiple different situational outcomes, beginning to end,
allows me to make well thought out decisions under pressure.

I am reliable
Reliability

I can be counted on to work hard and deliver positive results no matter what the task is.

I am passionate
Passion

I understand that a wedding is a celebration of something that will last a lifetime. I love
weddings with all of my heart, so you can relax knowing that your wedding is in my hands.

Communication Skills
1. Closing

The body of work I have accumulated has all helped me accomplish one very important
thing: communication skills.

Works well with others
In every new job or project, I have been faced with the task of learning to communicate well
with someone new. I have learned how to read social cues very well, and I can quickly
determine the best way to communicate with many different people.

Outgoing, Approachable, and Fun
My outgoing personality makes me approachable. People can tell within the ﬁrst few seconds
of meeting me that I am smart, fun, and will be easy to work with.
