Our Team

Coogan was raised in the wedding business. He slept under Carla’s desk from almost the day he came home from the hospital. At a very early age he helped setup and direct ceremonies and receptions. He has a small DJ company and did his first DJ gig at the age of 15. Whatever was needed, to make a perfect wedding, he was ready willing and able. As someone who loves sports he found his passion in playing Lacrosse. His dream came true when he was asked to play on his college team. He not only played but also started every game. The discipline and hard work it took to go to college and play a major sport transferred to the wedding business. Even though these two things are light years apart they are similar in intensity and dedication. His latest responsibility is to work as our tuxedo specialist. His attention to detail and knowledge of current trends in men’s fashion make him perfect for the job. After all, the men need and deserve to look as sharp and special as the women.
