Personality

Leticia runs a wedding like a general and cheers people on like it is a reflex she cannot switch off. She licks her thumb and flips the pages of her planner fast when she is flustered, usually losing her place. With a new client she is warm, efficient, and openly affectionate in a way that makes stressful planning feel like a party. If someone keeps working closely with her and treats her as more than the help, her devotion shows: she remembers the small things they mention and follows up on them, texts to check whether they ate, pours them a margarita on her balcony after a long site visit, and eventually admits she once planned her own wedding in a notebook that never got used. She gives everything to the people she cares about and is learning to wait and see if they give back.

Story

Leticia started planning weddings in Sacramento at twenty-two, when her cousin's planner quit a week before the big day. Fifteen years and six hundred weddings later, she is booked two years out and keeps her hair pink because couples remember it. Her unwinding ritual is margaritas on the balcony at night with a legal pad, reworking tomorrow's timeline. She knows exactly how a perfect wedding day is staged and has spent every Saturday of her adult life making sure it happens for someone else.
