"I wanted to write and thank you for having me as a part of your team this summer."
Alex, 2018 Summer Intern
It was such a unique experience - so much more than a "summer job". I've been able to learn so much from all of you at each event - from the technicals of set-up to learning how to work with people, each day gave me something valuable. I only wish I had the chance to work more weddings! Thank you for your kindness, your generosity and all you've been able to offer. You have inspired me to want to pursue my passions, strive for success and go after my dreams"
