Storied Events
I met Carrie at the LaBella Bride Magazine Vermont Shoot, which will arriving on bookshelves everywhere in December, 2010! We had tremendous fun during that shoot and it was a pleasure to work with her.
Carrie MacMillan-Lane of Storied Events provides wedding planning services for Vermont weddings and New England destination weddings. She believes it takes a team of talented professionals to make an amazing wedding happen. Carrie refers to herself as the founder, the nurterer and creative juice behind Storied Events and has an uncanny knack for using organic materials to design her beautiful displays.
Storied Events has access to a range of unique, private homes and estates in New England. Carrie’s services are also completely custom, which preserves each couple’s individuality. Her goal is to create the ultimate experience in carefree wedding planning and provide you with whatever amount of assistance you so desire. By getting to know you she gives you to the tools and assistance to create your timeless memories.
Originally planning to attend medical school after college graduation, Carrie worked in restaurants to save for the high costs of enrollment. During one of her school breaks, Carrie started working at Castle Hill Inn and Resort in Newport Rhode Island as a server and shortly thereafter, she took on the roll of their Banquet Manager. Immersed in planning weddings, corporate and social events, Carrie fell in love with the beauty, details and overall joy she felt from assisting people with life cycle celebrations.
Carrie moved to East Hampton, New York in 1998 and continued to diversify her talent with experience in publishing, sales and marketing, extensive travel, tradeshows, product launches and fundraising. Feeling the need for inspiration and a little philanthropy after so much time in sales and marketing, Carrie moved on to manage events and administration for the East Hampton Historical Society.
Finally, in 2005 Carrie left New York and moved to Vermont with her then fiancé. In 2006 Storied Events was launched shortly after the birth of their first daughter. After three successful years, Storied Events expanded and launched “Storied Locations”, a one-of-a-kind guide to wedding venues throughout the Northeast. It includes a blog, which is a home for event professionals around the country to showcase their talent and favorite wedding locations.
