Owner & Senior Event Consultant
I started in the wedding and event business over 17 years ago. I attended Parsons School of Design (you might know the name from Bravo’s Project Runway series) where I worked toward a Bachelor of Fine Art degree, and ultimately decided to bring my creative juices back to the Midwest where I graduated with honors from the University of Wisconsin at Madison (Go Badgers!). I paid my way through college designing and making custom bridal gowns and accessories while interning for some of the biggest designers in that business, and completed a senior scholarship thesis on the history and origins of bridal traditions in multiple cultures.

Senior Event Consultant
Originally from Boston, I started my career in events and catering over 14 years ago, working as a catering manager at two of that city’s premier hotels, The Boston Park Plaza Hotel and The Fairmont Copley Plaza Hotel. It was there that I learned the “biz” working with the city’s top event planners, photographers, linen companies, florists etc. I planned weddings and events of all sizes, from 5 guests to 500, and realized that I wanted to do the same thing on a larger scale in a bigger city. I eventually moved to Chicago to pursue my passion, and had the opportunity to work for three of the city’s most prestigious hotels, the Sheraton Chicago where I was the “wedding specialist” the Hilton Chicago as a Senior Catering Manager and The Drake Hotel as the Senior Catering Sales Manager and Wedding Specialist.

Associate Event Coordinator
Brittanie joined LOLA in 2007 as an intern candidate and was thrown into the wedding business with one of the most logistically challenging weddings we have ever done – where she passed with flying colors. From the very first minute she joined the team, her grace, style, creativity and poise under pressure has made her our “go-to” person on site at events, and she quickly became our most requested Event Assistant by both the Senior Coordinators and clients. She has now started managing her own client list and consistently gets rave reviews for her on-site implementation.

Associate Event Coordinator
Christa Gibson originally hails from The Buckeye state, but we don’t hold that against her. She joined LOLA as an Assistant in 2006, and is now an Associate Event Coordinator with the company. She loves seeing her brides have FUN at their weddings – and makes it her personal mission on every event to see that her brides are well taken care of. Christa’s ability to manage details while doing 1 million other things is unparalleled – we think this talent stems from her adventure racing background (and the fact that she has a 2 year old boy at home!).
