  Episode 47 - Where Your Marriage Begins: Patti Falconer on Choosing More Than a Wedding Venue

  Jul 26, 202634 minS3

  "Don't just rent the venue. Feel yourself in the space. This is the place where your marriage begins." — Patti Falconer, Parties on the Terrace There are countless beautiful wedding venues throughout the Pacific Northwest, but beauty alone doesn't make a place unforgettable. In this episode of Now You May Kiss™ , I sat down with Patti Falconer, co-owner of Parties on the Terrace, to explore what truly makes a wedding venue special and why choosing your venue isn't simply about where you'll celebrate, but where you'll begin your marriage. As I listened to Patti share her heart for hospitality, one thought kept returning to me: the best wedding professionals don't simply provide services; they create spaces where marriages begin. That's a philosophy I deeply believe in as Your Celebrant for Life™ , and it's why I couldn't wait to share this conversation with you. I hope you enjoy our conversation as much as I did.
