Meet Veronica Betancourt | Micro Wedding Planner

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

Hi Veronica, can you walk us through the thought-process of starting your business?
My thought process behind starting my own business was driven by a combination of factors. Firstly, having worked in the traditional wedding industry for a considerable time, I realized that I never envisioned myself having a traditional wedding. This realization sparked an interest in exploring alternative options, leading me to discover the concept of micro weddings.

When I came across micro weddings, it was an “aha” moment for me. I realized that I could personally relate to my clients in a more meaningful way because, in a sense, I became my own ideal client. I understood firsthand the desire for a more intimate, personalized, and memorable wedding experience. This personal connection allowed me to empathize with my clients’ pain points and desires on a deeper level, enabling me to provide a better service.

By starting my own business focused on micro weddings, I aimed to create unforgettable experiences for couples seeking a more intimate and tailored celebration. I wanted to leverage my own understanding and passion to provide exceptional services and make a positive impact in the lives of my clients. This thought process guided me in establishing a business that aligned with my vision, values, and expertise, ultimately leading to a more fulfilling and rewarding professional journey.

Can you give our readers an introduction to your business? Maybe you can share a bit about what you do and what sets you apart from others?
We are a unique micro wedding business with a remarkable in-house team that sets us apart from others. Unlike traditional wedding planners, we offer a three-pronged approach to micro weddings. With “Vow Micro Weddings,” we handle all aspects of planning. Our amazing mobile bar, “UpHill Taps,” provides a delightful beverage experience, and our super cool Photo Booth, “NOW Photo Booth,” adds an extra element of fun.

What truly makes us special is the synergy among our three businesses. Each one complements and supports the others, allowing us to provide our clients with the best service and a truly unforgettable experience.

Getting to where we are today in the business hasn’t been easy. We faced challenges along the way, but we overcame them through dedication, resilience, and a commitment to constant improvement. We’ve learned valuable lessons about adaptability, listening to our clients’ needs, and staying true to our vision.

What we want the world to know about us is that we are passionate about creating exceptional micro wedding experiences. We go above and beyond to ensure our clients have a personalized, stress-free, and memorable celebration. With our combined expertise and innovative approach, we strive to redefine what a micro wedding can be and deliver moments that will be cherished for a lifetime.

If you had a friend visiting you, what are some of the local spots you’d want to take them around to?
If my best friend was visiting the area for a week, I would plan an unforgettable itinerary. Here’s a glimpse of the exciting places, delicious food, and unique experiences I would include:

– Start the day with a delightful Southern breakfast at The Breakfast Klub.
– Discover the impressive Museum District, including the Museum of Fine Arts Houston, Houston Museum of Natural Science, and the Menil Collection.
– Savor diverse culinary delights at Houston’s renowned food halls like Finn Hall or Conservatory.
– Explore the beautiful Hermann Park, where you can visit the Houston Zoo or enjoy a show at the Miller Outdoor Theatre.
– Embark on an out-of-this-world experience at the Space Center Houston, delving into space exploration and NASA history.
– Conclude the trip with a visit to the vibrant Houston Heights neighborhood, brimming with trendy shops, restaurants, and local breweries.

Throughout the trip, I would make sure to embrace the lively atmosphere, and the warmth of the locals.

Shoutout is all about shouting out others who you feel deserve additional recognition and exposure. Who would you like to shoutout?
Absolutely! I would like to dedicate my shoutout to Augusto, my business and life partner. He has been an unbelievable source of support and encouragement throughout this entire journey. His unwavering belief in our vision has fueled my determination to pursue our dream of creating unforgettable experiences through micro weddings.

Augusto’s invaluable contributions cannot be overstated. As the muscle behind our operation, he plays a pivotal role in our success. His dedication, hard work, and attention to detail have been instrumental in delivering exceptional experiences to our clients.

Beyond his contributions to the business, Augusto has been my rock and my sounding board. He has offered guidance, motivation, and support during both the triumphs and challenges we have encountered along the way. His belief in our shared vision has bolstered my confidence and enabled us to grow this dream together.

I am incredibly grateful to Augusto for being an integral part of our journey and for being the person who stands by my side, ensuring that we continue to make strides and build a business we are proud of. His role in our success deserves recognition and credit, and I am honored to have him as my partner and cheerleader in this endeavor.
