INTRO // Hello everyone and Happy Monday! Can you believe this is my first official intro post?! Well here we go I'm Christina Nichols and I'm the owner + Lead Planner and Designer for Parker Nichols Events + The Parker Nichols Design Method for Brides I've been in the events industry since 2010 and it's been my greatest joy and passion assisting different couples, vendors, and organizations with their events for the past 10 years ... I knew back in college while studying Interior Design that I wanted to work in the wedding + events industry. It was about the time when all of those cheesy wedding planning shows were all over TLC. I remember watching them for hours and dreaming about my own career some day Fast forward many years later after learning countless lessons, spending a large amount of time in rentals + production, and launching Parker Nichols Events - this job and this industry is nothing like I dreamt up back then! It's sometimes way more challenging but also way more rewarding I absolutely love that I get to help individuals plan + design their most special days. The amount of detail, attention, and thoughtfulness we put into each element is a true expression of our Bride + Groom's story, style, and appreciation for their guests If you're looking for more assistance with designing your wedding day, send me a DM to set up a quick consult and learn more about how we can assist you @ryangreenleaf @makeup_bysusie #wedding #bride #engaged #engaged2020 #weddingdesigner #weddingdesign #eventplanner #weddingplanner #laketahoewedding #napawedding #californiawedding #destinationwedding #cabowedding #sthelena #westshore #theparkernicholsmethod #designyourwedding #design #sacramento #laketahoe See more
