hi! i’m Bobbie!
I am a visionary wedding planner for almost a decade, serving couples from all over the world and known for crafting understated, effortless, and fashion forward weddings with my awesome all girl team at sand+lace agency. We plan weddings in Greece, italy, spain, portugal, france and beyond.
Over the course of the years, i felt that traditional wedding planning lacks flexibility and inclusivity which put me on a mission committed to revolutionize the wedding industry.
my goal is to empower couples of all budgets and backgrounds and aiming to democratize wedding planning experiences, because i strongly believe that every couple needs to have access to high-end and tailored wedding planning services that fit to their own personal needs. Budget should not define the quality of service offered.
my aim is to break barriers and redefine wedding planning norms.

"I just wanted to say thank you from the bottom of our hearts, for everything that you did for us over the last few months but most importantly Monday. We both had the most incredible time and were blown away by the venue and every little detail that you had thought about. Our guests keep telling us that it was possible the best wedding that they have been to and I couldn't agree more"
