SIC (US 1987) : Cyndi Durham is a self admitted “Wedding Addict”. She eats, breathes and lives for weddings. Even when she is away from Cavender Castle she scours the internet for trends and ideas that can help her couples. In her off time you will find her watching wedding shows on TV. Sometimes she even dreams about weddings!
Cyndi has been planing weddings since 2003. Over that time she has planned and coordinated almost 1000 weddings at Cavender Castle and at other venues all around the south. In high school and college she directed her Mom’s day care center. After marrying Rick in 1984, she founded and operated her own chain dance and gymnastics studios with a focus on pre-schoolers.
All of the experience with kids makes Miss Cyndi an expert at making sure that children have a great wedding experience. Cyndi makes sure that Cavender Castle is one the most kid-friendly, if not the entire USA.
Cyndi is also an excellent photographer. Her eye for details and fun-friendly personality enable her to get fantastic wedding poses (even from those who hate to have their picture taken). She photographs most of our while husband Rick officiates. She is also the founder of our sister company that shoots weddings and portraits throughout the region.
Cyndi personally manages all of our (over age 40). Being in her mid-fifties herself she has found that tend to relate better to wedding planners who have similar life experiences. Younger couples are given the choice of having Cyndi plan their event, or having Cyndi’s daughter Delaney handle the lead.
But even if the couple elects to have Delaney plan their event, Cyndi is never far away. And it is not unusual for Cyndi to act as the “surrogate mom” for young couples whose families live far away and cannot be part of the planning process.
