We had the good fortune of connecting with Whitney Bailey and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Whitney, we’d love to hear about how you approach risk and risk-taking
I believe that risks are a huge part of any successful business owner. As a wedding planner, it’s my job to not only take risks but to react to them with grace.

Alright, so for those in our community who might not be familiar with your business, can you tell us more?
Engaged Events is a full service wedding and design company located in the heart of Dallas. While only taking on a select amount of weddings per year, we are able to concentrate on each of our clients wants and needs. From handling all of the countless logistics, to designing each room from floor to ceiling, Engaged Events has a flair for transforming blank spaces into dream venues. Always thinking outside the box, Engaged Events will work with their clients to make their vision come to life.

Any places to eat or things to do that you can share with our readers? If they have a friend visiting town, what are some spots they could take them to?
One of my favorite local spots to visit is the Dallas Arboretum. I grew up living right across from it, so it has always been a part of my life. Another favorite of ours is is Klyde Warren Park.

Who else deserves some credit and recognition?
Over the years I have learned so much for the AACWP (American Association of Certified Wedding Planners).
