Gracie
Hindmon
Hi! I’m Gracie, and I’m currently working toward my bachelor’s degree in Business Management at TAMU-CC. When I’m not in class, you can usually find me thrifting, browsing my favorite stores like Target and TJ Maxx, or spending time in San Antonio with friends and family. I love to travel and I make it a goal to visit a new country each year, and so far I’ve been blessed enough to explore Italy, Spain, and Canada. What I love most about a wedding day is seeing all the fine details come together to create something truly unforgettable. Being part of those meaningful moments and helping bring a couple’s vision to life is what makes this position so special to me.
Cassie Jones
Hi, brides! I'm a Corpus Christi native with a bachelor's in Business Administration from TAMU-CC, go Islanders! I love game nights with family and friends, spontaneous weekend trips, and planning everyone’s parties (duh!). My favorite way to spend a day off is by grabbing an iced latte, hitting up estate sales and thrift shops, and ending the night with a cozy dinner at home. My favorite part of a wedding day is when the bride gets to see her reception space dream come to life, before the guests enter in to enjoy. I can't wait to plan your dream wedding day!
Emily Smith
Hi, I’m Emily!! I’m originally from Boerne, TX but moved to Corpus Christi to attend college at TAMU-CC! I have always been interested in wedding planning, and I contribute a fresh outlook and excitement for wedding day! My favorite part of wedding day is seeing the couple make their grand entry and feel all the happiness and love in the air. In my free time, I love spending the day on the beach, hanging out with my family and friends and having craft days!
Theo Segura
I’m Theo! When I’m not thrifting or sipping an iced chai, you’ll find me at church or working from my favorite coffee shop. As a social media manager for Better Together Planning, I love blending creativity with strategy to tell beautiful stories. I’m passionate about Jesus, travel, running, and all things outdoors. With contagious enthusiasm and a heart for people, I’m the kind of planner who’s organized, adaptable, and all in for making your day unforgettable. My favorite part? The grand entrance—nothing beats the energy and creativity couples bring!
Lisette
Dwyer-Krehbiel
Hey there! I’m Lisette! If I’m not helping out with young adults at my church or spending time with my friends or family, you’ll probably find me thrifting for hidden gems or curled up on the couch with my husband and a good book. I love bringing ideas to life—especially when it comes to helping brides create their dream wedding! My favorite part of any wedding day is the moment when the groom sees his bride, the first dances, and, let’s be real—the dance floor!
Ashley
Boyer
Hi, I’m Ashley! My journey with Better Together began after the amazing team helped make my own wedding day unforgettable. I fell in love with the planning process and the way each couple brings their own personal flair to their special day. It’s such a joy to witness the unique touches and details that make every wedding meaningful and true to the couple’s personality.
When I’m not busy with weddings, you can find me on the coast, fishing, or enjoying good times with friends—whether over a glass of wine or a warm cup of coffee. My favorite part of the wedding day is watching the timeline come together, knowing that every detail is aligned to create a seamless and unforgettable experience for the couple.
Desiree
Obregon
Hi friends! I’m Desiree, born and raised in Corpus Christi, and I truly love my city. In my spare time, you’ll usually find me serving at church, spending time with family and friends, enjoying a good game night, amazing food, or the rodeo. One of my absolute favorite things to do is celebrate others, and I can’t wait to celebrate you on your special day. My favorite part of a wedding day is seeing the bride and groom overflowing with love and joy. It would be an honor to support you in any way so you can relax and enjoy every moment of your wedding day!
Meredith
Munoz
Hi there! I’m born & raised in Austin & made my way to the coast after attending TAMUCC, where I fell in love with life on the coast. I got married in 2025 & loved every part of the process, especially working with a planner who brought my vision to life. Being part of someone’s wedding day is so special to me & I’m all about making sure it feels easy, fun, & exactly how you imagined. My favorite moments are when couples see their reception space for the first time & the private last dance, it’s so special! Outside of weddings, I love being crafty (currently into needlepoint), trying new food spots with my husband, & a good self care day!
Maddie
Schmitz
Hi there! I'm Maddie, owner of Better Together Planning! Wedding days and being a part of this wonderful team of women are the why behind it all! When I'm not working on weddings I'm spending quality time with my family or traveling the world! My favorite part on wedding day is finally getting the bride down the aisle with her dad! All the stress releases as she heads into her future. I also love a packed dance floor too!
"She handled all the parts of the wedding planning process that had been frustrating me like vendor outreach and coordination and instead I got to focus on just making the fun decisions!"
