Tara Weathersby is a certified Wedding Planner who has been planning weddings since she was a young child. Planning weddings has always been a passion of hers and her first clients were Barbie and Ken. Tara has always assisted her friends and family plan their weddings and assisted with a number of tasks from finding flowers, photography, and videography, to assisting with Bridal Showers and Wedding Rehearsals. In 1996, Tara started her own business, "New Beginnings Weddings," and became a certified Wedding Planner in 1998 through Weddings Beautiful Worldwide. To become more versatile and be able to assist in all areas of event planning, she decided to expand and in 2000 changed the name of her business to "New Beginnings Weddings and Special Events." In spite of becoming more versatile, her expertise still lies in Wedding Planning because she knows the stress that a bride can incur while planning her special day. She wants to ensure that her client's wedding is stress free and is exactly what they dreamed of. Tara doesn't take her position lightly because she knows this will be one of the most important events in her client's life. She loves working with people and wants to make sure that on their special day they are able to enjoy every moment of their auspicious occasion. Throughout the years, Tara has assisted in planning over 150 events. She is one of the wedding coordinators at her church, Liberty Temple Full Gospel Church. She has a Bachelors Degree in Business Administration from Bradley University, Peoria, IL. and a Masters Degree in Business Administration from Keller Graduate School of Management, Chicago, IL. Tara has been married for two years and resides in Matteson, IL with her husband and children.
