Alexis Morgan has spent the past eight years devoted to turning her tiny start-up into Manhattan’s premiere wedding planning company, The Wedding Belles. Now that her business is thriving, it’s time to turn towards her much neglected personal life, and Alexis approaches her relationships like she does everything else: with a plan.

“We can do twenty,” Alexis lied smoothly. “But keep in mind that the nine-course meal we’re planning will already include two dessert courses. We don’t want to minimize the specialness of those.”
Especially at five hundred bucks a head, just for the food.
Extravagant, even for a Wedding Belles client.
Nathalie Sorrel was an example of how far Alexis had come in the eight years since starting her company from this very same office.
