The RSG Weddings & Events Team
“Events have always been a passion of mine, weddings in particular! Coming up on 8 years of wedding & event planning experience, this industry has a true place in my heart! Making someone’s dream day come to life and knowing that we made the planning process stress free & fun is such a great feeling! I’m in love with the perfect small details in weddings and of course, a well executed first dance and a packed dance-floor!”
LET’S PLAN SOMETHING LEGENDARY TOGETHER!
Shaw
Owner/Lead Planner
“I’ve been assisting and coordinating weddings for almost 8 years now! I first started in 2015 while attending Old Dominion for my BSBA in Business Management. My favorite parts of weddings are listening to written vows the couple read to each other and the speeches that family and friends write. The best ones include all the embarrassing stories of the newlyweds growing and how they met!
When I’m not working weddings or my full time job with a national home builder, I am spending time with my two Cattle Dogs! You can find me visiting at all the local coffee shops (my personal favorite is Cure!), outdoors playing with my crazy pups, planning new adventures or having fun customizing my 4Runner!”

Lead Planner
Taylor here! My favorite part about weddings is being your hype girl and helping make your day exactly how you want it to be. Seeing your loved ones come together to celebrate you and your significant other on this very special day gives me all the energy and brings joy to my heart!! I’ve been in the wedding planning game, for 2.5 years now, and I can’t wait to grow and learn!
During the week you will find me striving to improve Veteran Healthcare in my full-time role as a healthcare consultant working with the Veterans Healthcare Administration. In my free time, I am with my husband Connor and our three animals (2 cats and 1 fluffy doggo). I love to bake/cook, travel, read, and post on my gluten-free blog.”

Lead Planner
”I’m so excited to be back in the wedding industry, I have experience in wedding planning and bridal fashion and have a love for both! It’s an unmatched feeling being able to be apart of someone’s big day, I can’t wait to grow with RSG!
When I’m not behind the scenes at weddings, I am working in real estate and traveling. I love sunny days on Shore Dr., Orange Theory, my British shorthair cat Avalon and shopping. My favorite season besides summer is football season #gomonarchs #titanup! Can’t wait to see you all down the aisle!”
"From government meetings to game days at Lane Stadium (Go Hokies!), and of course, the pure joy of weddings – I've done it all! Since before graduating from Virginia Tech with a degree in communication & event management in 2022, I've been hooked on making moments memorable. Every event brings its own thrill, and I love every minute of planning. There's something incredibly special about working with brides and families, turning their visions into reality on their happiest day.
When I'm not busy with events, you'll find me coaching lacrosse or cheerleading, soaking up the sun at East beach, or exploring new places with my boyfriend, Jack. We're always on the lookout for the next great spot to eat and experience in the 757. I can't wait to be part of your big day with RSG!"
Lydia
Associate Planner
For the longest time I have always loved planning & helping others. When I finally decided to explore more within this industry I knew it was made for me. As a young student at Tidewater Community College I am always learning new things but learning more about this industry is much more exciting! I am blessed to be included in making others envision of a perfect day come true! I am still learning more about wedding and event planning everyday but can’t wait to see more dream days unfold. When I am not helping with weddings or working, I am spending time with friends and family. I enjoy the time I am able to spend with them as my schedule is usually packed daily. I also enjoy watching sports and playing volleyball for fun time to time!
