About Tara

  • “Wedding planning is not a job. It’s a calling. It’s a vocation.” My biggest strength – I listen, because it’s not about me. It’s about you and creating the environment and experience you want to have. That’s why we are very involved from start to finish. We truly connect and enjoy working with multi-generational groups. Planning for siblings, cousins, friends, and beyond to host intentional and meaningful celebrations, each unique in its own. And to design experiences of the highest caliber that would make us want to attend the event ourselves.

  • Recognized as an industry leader, Tara has established Ireland as an international wedding destination. She pioneered and co-produced the global wedding summits Engage!18 and Engage!22, bringing in industry leaders from dozens of countries to celebrate all that Ireland has to offer on the world’s stage. Tara is known as the “Wedding Planner’s Wedding Planner,” and is a sought-after industry speaker internationally. Regardless of where her career takes her, Dublin will always be where Tara calls home.

  • “You don’t hire a planner to put all your plans in place, you hire a planner to handle things when any challenges arise.” I’m not for everyone, but if you want someone straight and direct with you, who will take off the weight of your worries, and who will advocate for you – you’re in the right place. My proudest moments always entail seeing my clients relax and truly enjoy the experience.

  • A successful event is not measured by one incredible moment. It’s the compilation of everything: the little details, the stunning atmosphere, the music, the cake, the food. It’s ensuring everything is incredible. So that you can’t pin it down to one single thing but instead, the entire experience.

Tara is very good at what she does.
“You’d be hard pressed to find anyone better.”
