Meet Denise of Impressions House Weddings,
your wedding planner in San Diego:
"I’m Denise, founder of Impressions House. My passion is creating thoughtful, personalized weddings that reflect each couple’s story and style while bringing their families and friends together in a meaningful way.
Before focusing fully on weddings, I spent 18 years in marketing at Nordstrom, where I helped plan and execute events for nonprofit organizations and corporate partners across the West Coast. Those experiences shaped my love for creating celebrations that people remember long after the day itself.
Family is at the heart of everything I do. I’ve been married to my best friend for over 20 years, and together we’re raising three daughters who mean the world to me."
