Today we’d like to introduce you to Victoria Miller.
Thanks for sharing your story with us Victoria. So, let’s start at the beginning and we can move on from there.
I started out working in corporate America in my early 20’s while raising my young daughter and attending college. I have always been ambitious but had a creative side that wasn’t exactly fulfilled by my corporate job. I was intrigued when a colleague asked if I would be interested in assisting his wife coordinating weddings occasionally on the weekends. After several weddings at the local venue she managed, I realized that I enjoyed my side job way more than I felt that I ever could my career in corporate America.
Laura, who became my dear friend and mentor during the time we worked together, had over 25 years of experience and planned events for Disney during a large part of her career. To be able to mentor under someone like that was incredible! Laura was always supportive and saw that I had potential. I recognized that I had an amazing opportunity to learn from her, so I started asking to take on more events on the weekends while working my Monday – Friday job for the first couple of years.
After working more than 50 events and planning my own wedding, I decided I wanted to put my keen organizational skills and passion for helping others navigate the event planning process to work for engaged couples throughout Atlanta.
We’re always bombarded by how great it is to pursue your passion, etc – but we’ve spoken with enough people to know that it’s not always easy. Overall, would you say things have been easy for you?
Balancing running a business while being a wife and mother was trial and error for the first few years. Initially, I threw myself and everything I had into my business and worked all hours. You could find me working on creating a timeline at 1:30 am at times! While I still devote all that I have to my business, I have worked to find a way to better balance things in the past few years. I have invested a lot of time in establishing time-saving processes to ensure things run as smoothly as possible. I have found ways to automate specific tasks such as pre-scheduling social media posts for the month ahead. I have found that simple changes like that save a lot of time in the long run!
So, as you know, we’re impressed with LUXE Atlanta Events – tell our readers more, for example what you’re most proud of and what sets you apart from others.
We offer completely customizable packages so that we can satisfy each couple’s specific needs. Whether a couple is looking for someone to handle coordination, full-service event planning, or something in between, we manage it all. What sets LUXE Atlanta Events apart is the time we take to foster relationships with our clients. From managing the logistics of an event to creating a design that is an authentic representation of the couple. Without taking the time to get to know our clients, this simply would not be possible. We believe in quality over quantity and because we are so deeply involved in each couple’s event planning process from start to finish, we only accept a limited number of events each year.
So, what’s next? Any big plans?
For the nearly five years, I have been in the event industry, I have planed over 100 events and have had the pleasure of working with so many amazing couples and talented vendors! Our work has been featured in over 40 publications including Southern Bride, The Celebration Society, and Modern Luxury Weddings. In the years to come, I plan to continue to grow LUXE Atlanta Events while maintaining the exceptional experience our clients rave about!
