Our guest in this episode Patricia Jackson from Ruban Bleu Weddings and Events in Dallas, Texas. Patricia loves seeing and making people happy. She’s a true believer in love and enjoys hearing other people’s love stories, which is what inspired her to get into the wedding industry.
Patricia emphasizes the importance of taking room to breathe during the wedding planning process. She has seen so many couples forget to do just that. Her greatest piece of advice is to take it one day at a time rather than trying to accomplish everything at once. It can be helpful to make lists and give yourself plenty of time to check off what needs to be done.
When you work with Ruban Bleu, they act as your personal secretary. You let them know what you want, and they will follow up and find the right venue for you. They don’t add pressure or encourage making rash decisions. It’s your wedding, and Patricia ensures you take the time you deserve and choose wisely.
Patricia is only a phone call away for her clients. She’s a planner, a people-pleaser, and strives to think outside of the box to find solutions. As a wedding planner, it’s her job to breathe with the client when they are stressed and help them create the wedding day of their dreams. While doing so, she also helps you stay on budget so you can plan a wedding within your means.
A man contacted Ruban Bleu out of Louisiana, and although they are out of town, he really wanted to work with them. He had a vision of proposing to his partner outside, having the venue situated like a restaurant. They were able to find the perfect spot to bring this vision to life. She walked him through it every step of the way, including mirroring getting on one knee so he wouldn’t forget. It was one of the most memorable experiences of Patricia’s career.
