Shawn Marie Carnall
Shawn Marie has been planning events for almost 20 years. A former sales manager for Hilton Hotels and an association meeting planner, I decided to channel my organizational energies to weddings in 1999 and created An Exceptional Event. I have since planned many weddings and special events throughout Northern Virginia.
My job is to be focused on all the details that go into making an event flow smoothly - so you can concentrate on each other. Choosing a planner is a very personal choice - it's a "trust" relationship as we will work very closely together. I love what we do and taking care of people and their details is what I do best! It is my greatest joy to help make exceptional events happen - I look forward to taking care of you at yours!
