Wow the summer has come to an end! As I finish my internship
and close a chapter in my life by leaving Virginia and moving down to my new
home in North Carolina. I look back at this summer and at everything that I
accomplished with my internship and all the things that I learned.
This last month was filled with a wedding on every Saturday
with tournaments during the weeks, so Tracey and I had our handfuls. But we
kept our heads on while we finished up last minute details when it came to
weddings and crazy nervous brides.
The middle of July I helped Tracey plan two more weddings and which seems to be a
fun Sweet 16. Tracey brought me in on this meeting especially so I could help
the girl find things that she liked by having a girl somewhat closer to her age
then her mother to understand what she was looking for. So I knew what she wanted when it came to bright colors
and fun décor ideas. Although I won’t be able to see the Sweet 16 through since
it’s at the end of August and I will be back at school with all of you! It was
exciting to be a big help in what this girl wanted and to give her great ideas.
She really made me feel old planning her Sweet 16 when I'll be 21 in August! I
know the event will be executed perfectly.
Before I left Tracey and I sat down and updated the books I
created so they include:
- Floor plans
- Menus
- Bar menus
- And information details
The end came to a closing and I finished my last wedding at
Augustine Golf Course. It’s very sad to leave such a great staff that I got along with so well and some of my now good friends. Tracey and I had a great
summer full of laughs and nice long talks about life as we worked.
Tracey is leaving Augustine Golf Course to further working
in the wedding business by looking to open her own company with her good friend
Heather who is a wonderful wedding cake maker. They will be an unstoppable team
with their great ideas and crazy personalities. Tracey offered me a job working
in the Marketing and PR for the company when I graduate when she gets it up and
running, so the trio will be back together ready to make the venue great!
I said my last goodbye to the best summer job I've had the past 2 season, maybe one day I'll go back but until then that chapter is closed!
