Hey, lovely!

Then you are in the right place.

Being a bride is intense. 
And it's not just the pressure of making a life altering decision and throwing a fabulous bash. There are major changes happening to your identity and to ALL of your closest relationships. And that can be really hard to navigate. 

You need an objective perspective, professional expertise, and a supportive community of women to help you walk through this sacred right of passage feeling confident and peaceful.   

I'm ready to meet the girls and figure this stuff out!

Hi, I'm Kara

And I am here to get you down the aisle with grace and poise feeling the joy and peace you dreamed you would feel.  Too many brides spend the day mired in anxiety, drained from family feuds, and stressed over misunderstandings. 
It doesn't have to be that way. Inside the Bridal Prep Academy you will learn the skills and get the support you need to have a lovely wedding and beautiful marriage. 
 
I had a crazy trip to the aisle with three months to plan for 300 guests in a custom ceremony honoring my Irish Catholic family and my husband's Muslim Persian family. While my bridal experience gives me insight, it's my formal education (Masters in Social Work from University of Pennsylvania and Life Coaching Certification from Martha Beck- Oprah's life coach)  that gives me the actual skills and tools that will help you solve your problems.

There is no better time in your life to learn how manage stress,figure out what you really want, and have difficult conversations than right now! Can't wait to meet you inside.
