Today I got an opportunity to meet up with Lisa Blinn from L Marie Events. She has an unbelievable zest for life. You feel it the minute you meet her. I met her a few years ago at an ABC State Conference where I was on a panel. She was one of the major players in putting it together and her attention to detail and passion for putting on a quality event was on full display.

I made the hour or so trek from Manhattan on the LIRR to her offices located in Locust Valley. What an awesome town and a great centralized location for her to make it out to her client’s events that are primarily happening in the Hamptons and North Fork. She shares the space with John Goolsby of Godfather Films.

Lisa has been planning weddings and events for 9 years. She is just as passionate today as she was the day she started. One of the things that I took away from our meeting is that she desires to see the vendors she works with as one big team that has a goal to make a client’s day memorable. I love to see that kind of attitude from a planner. They truly drive the event and that selfless thought process is infectious and makes working an event easy.
