The ease, flexibility and just overall pleasure to work with Jane is a wedding planners dream! The Arches found a treasure when they hired Jane as she is not only is the venue manager, she is also a partner and your best friend. Her attention to detail, care and commitment to your event are unmatched! I had the pleasure of working with Jane at The Arches most recently at a styled shoot she hosted for us. The day was beyond perfect as we knew it would be and I am sincerely looking forward to working with her again soon!
