I founded OFD Consulting in 2009 with a clear mission: to elevate wedding professionals through meaningful publicity and smart visibility strategies. What began as a boutique public relations agency has grown into a go-to resource for creatives who want to get published, become sought-after speakers, and raise their authority in the industry.
At OFD Consulting, we specialize in wedding PR and marketing tailored to planners, photographers, florists, and other creatives. We don’t believe in one-size-fits-all publicity—we work with our clients to develop unique story angles, create strong submission strategies, and secure high-profile media placements in outlets like Brides, The Knot, and Martha Stewart Weddings.
In addition to one-on-one client work, OFD Consulting is also home to the OFD Collective, a digital membership community that supports wedding professionals through PR education, press leads, and pitch reviews. Whether you’re just starting out or ready to expand your reach, we offer the tools and guidance you need to grow.
While I continue to speak, teach, and write about publicity through my own platform, I proudly consider OFD Consulting the flagship of my work in the industry.
