Angela didn’t start in the wedding business — she built her way into it, one decision at a time.
After a high-level career leading operations and strategy in the healthcare and biotech industries, Angela made a deliberate pivot toward entrepreneurship. With a foundation in systems, process improvement, and leadership, she brought a disciplined, business-first approach into an industry that often runs on instinct instead of structure.
Before entering the wedding industry, she spent more than two decades owning and operating a high-performing early childhood education business, where she mastered sales, team development, operational systems, and scalable growth. That experience became the backbone for everything she would build next.
She didn’t just open a venue — she engineered a business.
In 2019, Angela launched her first venue with no prior experience in the wedding industry. Before the doors even opened, she had already booked over 50 weddings — proving that demand, positioning, and sales strategy matter just as much as the space itself. She repeated that success again with her second venue, opening with over 100 booked weddings, building momentum and revenue before opening day.
Today, she is the owner of White Willow Meadows and Stone Valley Meadows, two of Ohio’s premier luxury wedding venues, collectively hosting hundreds of events each year. Her venues have been recognized nationally, including being featured on Netflix’s Love Is Blind Season 10, and she serves as a WeddingWire Pro Educator with The Knot and industry expert.
But what truly sets Angela apart is how she built it.
From managing million-dollar projects and leading teams to making hands-on design decisions — even laying flooring and styling florals herself — Angela understands every layer of the business. She has negotiated land deals, navigated zoning and construction, built vendor ecosystems, and created systems that turn complex operations into repeatable success.
She has lived every phase:
-Starting with uncertainty
-Building without a roadmap
-Making costly mistakes
-Then refining, systemizing, and scaling
That journey is exactly why this Master Class exists.
Angela doesn’t teach theory. She teaches what works — and what doesn’t — based on real venues, real clients, and real financial outcomes.
Now, she’s giving you the blueprint she built the hard way — so you can build it faster, smarter, and with far less risk.
