"Tiffany Kay" comes from a combination of her and her daughter Kaleigh's name. She wanted to be able to bring a small piece of her family into the business.

Wedding planning is her true love. Being able to work on a more personal level with her clients to curate beautiful events is what keeps her inspired.
