Thousands of miles divide us and you have a very important decision to make – choosing your wedding planner. I know it is difficult to do this without meeting the person. In an attempt to help, here are a few words about me.

Planning events is something that I love to do. It truly inspires me and it is what I want to do for the rest of my life.

I am happily married since 2012. I am currently enjoying everyday life in Cyprus with my husband and daughter. I like to travel and absorb inspiration from different cultures around the world. The inspiration shows in my paintings, my cooking, my work and of course in my blog.

I do not view it as a job, but rather as a challenging and stimulating experience. I am a perfectionist. I am detailed and organised and so you can trust me for your boutique wedding. I have an innate ability to turn creative ideas into reality. I feel that there is nothing more satisfying than seeing the final result and witnessing a happy couple.

Before founding Here With Me, I earned a Bachelor’s degree from Warwick University and a Master’s degree from Cass Business School and worked in the business world for several years.

Planning parties and organizing special occasions for people has always been a strong passion of mine however, from a young age, I was always dazzled by weddings.

I started off my career in Cyprus working at luxury 5* hotels in Limassol as an event organizer, which gave me the opportunity to get a taste of all events, corporate and social, small and large, and it was then that I realised that event planning was what I wanted to pursue as my career path for years to come.

Planning weddings at hotels was my biggest pleasure, from initial meetings with couples till the execution on the day. I was determined to turn the couples’ ideas on tiny scraps of paper into reality, while meeting and exceeding their expectations. There is nothing that can bring me more joy and bliss than creating and being an important part of one of the most important days of a couple’s life.

In an effort to get to know me better, here are a few facts about me. I am Lebanese and was raised on this stunning Island that I am lucky enough to call home. I’m a foodie at heart and LOVE to travel whenever I get the chance to. I have also  earned a bachelor’s degree in Interior design from Southampton University as well as a Masters degree in International Events Management from Ecole de Management de Normandie in France.
