Meet Tanya Costigan, a wedding and event planner and owner of Tanya Costigan Events.

What's your favorite wedding memory?

I recently worked with a clients who held their wedding at the groom's home in Pembroke, MA.  When it was time for the Father/Daughter dance, the bride's dad announced to everyone that he'd chosen to dance to the same song he played and danced to with his daughter the day she came home from the hospital.

What's the best advice you give to a couple about their wedding day?

I always tell couples that the busy wedding day starts early and moves quickly, so stop and enjoy the moments when you can.  Take some moments alone with each other, especially right after the ceremony before going off to do pictures.  Couples are grateful for that advice and in retrospect, grateful that I was the one caring for tasks on the wedding day so they could really, truly enjoy the day fully with everyone they love.

What do you love most about your work?

This is a hard one because I love so many things about it...but I love my clients immensely and I love their pleased reactions when they see their ceremony/reception spaces for the first time.  It makes them happy and makes the day real.  I love, love, love what I do.  Love.
Tanya Costigan

What makes you different from other professionals in your field?

I gush a little when my clients walk that aisle - every time. I am completely, completely smitten with what I get to do.  I care for my clients' weddings as if they were my own.  I love hearing Fathers of the Bride or Mothers of the Groom tell me stories of their children before the ceremony when they are emotional.  I offer thoughtful and professional service and I have a natural calmness that I bring which has been the most consistent feedback I get from clients and their families.

Favorite restaurant for brunch?

I love Strawbale Cafe in Westhampton.  In season, they make their own maple syrup and they offer gluten free pancakes (I always add chocolate chips!).

What's your cocktail of choice?

I love Malibu rum and pineapple juice.  Or champagne.  Oooooh, you know what? That sounds like a signature drink waiting to happen!  *Makes mental note to try mixing the 3*

A charity you support?

I'm a volunteer Birthday Fairy for the Confetti Foundation. The Confetti Foundation is a non-profit started by a couple of event planners in Rhode Island that collects cute birthday supplies, packs them in a pretty themed box and Birthday Fairies like me deliver them to local hospitals that distribute them to children staying in the hospital on their birthday with long-term illnesses.
