Danielle has been with the team a long time (I think we’re at 6+ years at this point.

Danielle is on the team most as a Lead herself, running wedding days. When she’s not doing that she’s working her day job (for True North), traveling, spending time with family, and just all around living a full life.

We’re so thankful for Danielle, her skills, loyalty and all-around warm and happy heart.

What do you love doing with your time off?

Time off??? What’s that? Just kidding. 

I love to travel. This past year I went to Iceland, which I would highly recommend. I also went to Italy where (besides the amazing food) my favourite thing I did was a  5-day-hut-to-hut hike in the Dolomite Mountains. It was an experience I’ll never forget. 

I also volunteer my time with K9 Advocacy Manitoba, where I’ve been helping out with their social media for the past three years. I love all animals and they do amazing work rescuing dogs and cats from unfortunate situations. 

What do you love about working in weddings & events?

I love seeing everything come together. It’s a very busy, nonstop day for us, but that’s what I like. I enjoy the craziness of it all behind the scenes that the couple and guests never see. 

If you could recommend one book what would it be?

I love autobiographies, so pick up one of those! Any one.  I love listening to people’s stories and seeing what made them who they are. 

Music that will always be on your playlist?

Honestly, I listen to everything. Every day is different. Spotify says I listened to 967 artists this year and 28 different genres. I love listening to music that not many have heard of, discovering them before they are famous 

What’s your current show and your go-to; that you’d watch over and over?

I just finished watching House of Usher (so good). My go-to shows are Schitt’s Creek and New Girl 

Rapid fire questions:

Fav food? – Sushi. 

Fav drink? – Starbucks, Caramel caramel macchiato thank you very much. 

Fav dog breed? – All of them. All the dogs.  

Movie you will go back to every year? – Hmm, I’d say The Holiday. I love that movie and watch it every Christmas.
