About me




Nice to meet you, Carlijn, 38 years old, born and raised in Bergen op Zoom (North Brabant). In 2012, I left the city center for a house in a rural setting, together with my husband, three wonderful sons Luuk, Tijn, and Max, our dog Vive, and a horse. I am a busy bee and I enjoy being out and about with our family. On weekends, I like to visit friends and we enjoy playing games together.


Fun facts about me:

  • I love playing board games
  • Chocolate ice cream: oh no! Inedible!
  • Lisbon is my favorite city trip so far
  • The sea cannot tempt me to take a dive either.
  • I have a passion for horses
  • Never call 'catch' to me: for I cannot catch
  • I enjoy reading Jill Mansell books
  • I would definitely like to take a big trip to Australia/New Zealand.


Perfectionist at heart: I love details and ensure that every aspect of a wedding is right. From the smallest decoration to the big picture, everything must be perfect.


Creativity is second nature to me: I draw inspiration from art, travel, and nature to create unique weddings. No two weddings I plan are the same.


Calm in the chaos: Where others become overwhelmed, I remain calm. I love unraveling complex schedules and logistical challenges and ensuring everything runs smoothly.


My favorite moment at a wedding: When the couple sees each other for the first time during the ceremony. It is a magical and emotional moment that I never tire of. With this experience and passion, I am ready to guide you towards a perfect wedding, exactly as you envision it.

Whether it is an intimate ceremony, a large-scale celebration, or a destination event, I am here to guide you and take the burden of planning off your shoulders.
