With a busy career and two children, she knows first-hand how difficult it can be to find time for entertaining, cooking and conventional decorating. Having coined the phrase “undecorating,” Susie’s focus is on having fun with simple and personal styling to achieve maximum impact – always following her heart and her instincts.

It takes brides through the myriad of style choices to help them find their own unique dream wedding style. In her Secrets of a Style Diva: A Get-Inspired Guide to Your Creative Side (September 2006), Susie goes beyond the conventional to give her readers fresh, sassy, and personal advice on how to bring out their creativity.

LICENSING
