JASMINE SHANABARGER

Jasmine is originally from a small town in Minnesota were everyone was considered family. Living in a snowy, cold climate, she would spend most of her free time playing “Wedding Day” with her sisters and cousins indoors. They would set up long aisles and take turns dressing up and walking down the aisle while the others would stand at the front and watch the bride walk down and lift her veil. 

She migrated south to attend college at North Carolina State University in Raleigh, North Carolina, and earned her degree in Hospitality. 

While attending school, Jasmine also was a manager of the Varsity Gymnastics team where she would help plan team meetings, organize outings, and help with day of coordinating on competition day. Having competed in competitive gymnastics for 17 years, she felt she had an insight she could bring to the team. While contributing her volunteerism to the team, she discovered her love and passion for events. Always the first to plan a birthday party, make arrangements for group vacations, and even put together checklists and timelines, Jasmine knew this was her niche.

After graduation, Jasmine decided that she was okay with being away from the snow and traded in her mittens for some sunscreen and made her way down to the Sunshine State. 

Now, getting to live out that fairytale game of “Wedding Day”, Jasmine gets to help our brides walk down the aisle and help make their big day perfect. Her favorite part is helping the brides out of the Bridal Suite and setting them up to walk down the aisle. She loves the excitement she can see in each bride’s eyes knowing about to walk down to their forever.

In her free time, Jasmine enjoys spending time with her fiance, Steve, and her adorable blue-eyed Pomsky, “Stoli” (she’s so beautiful!). Jasmine is also a huge fan of enjoying her large family who live in Orlando (and all their visiting relatives!). Jasmine’s fondness for browsing Pinterest lately has been replaced by Tik Tok and doing reels for us on Instagram. Oh, yah, she’s also planning her own upcoming wedding at The Royal Crest Room in the fall of 2022, too! Can’t wait for Jasmine & Steve’s wedding! Woo Hoo!
