Hi, I’m Sarah (she/her).

& that’s me on a wedding day, giving one of my favorite brides the biggest hugs right after the grand reveal of their reception space. I started Sarah Brehant Events in 2017 and I still wake up every morning with such a deep passion for what I do. Having the trust of the most important day of your life is such an honor and it truly fuels my soul. When you hire me, you should know that I won’t be satisfied until your wedding day is better than you could have even thought to ask for.
