A modern-day fairy godmother and all-around dream maker, Master Wedding Planner Tammy Waterman, created Special Moments in 2004 with a desire to give couples the wedding experience they deserved, complete with gorgeous details, stress-free planning, and expert management.
Tammy is a long-standing member of the Association of Bridal Consultants, and as a Master Wedding Planner holds one of the organization’s top honors. She is the recipient of a Miss Dorothy Heart Award for passion in the wedding industry, and a member of the Inaugural Advisory Panel for Wedding Planner Magazine. Special Moments has repeatedly earned annual recognition from WeddingWire.com and has been featured in such noted blogs and publications as Style Me Pretty, Every Last Detail, Glamour & Grace, The Knot, and Munaluchi Bridal.
Tammy’s favorite part of any wedding day is seeing her couple’s faces when they are walking back up the aisle together and considers it a privilege to be the very first to congratulation them.
In her spare time, you can find Tammy hitting the dance floor with her line-dancing friends, or in the great outdoors “glamping.”

Tammy’s husband, Bill, finally conceded and joined the Special Moments Team in 2010 and has not looked back. From being an Ordained Minister, Sandals Certified Specialist, and “the guy” who designs and creates all of the fabulous arches and other interesting pieces to the New Wiseguy for Weddings (it is about the groom too, ladies).
Grooms in need, we have someone on staff to advise and help you survive this thing called a wedding. Need a Romantic Proposal Idea, a great place to take the One you LOVE, or a guy’s last HOO-RAH? Bill is the Wise Guy!!!
Bill is also an Ordained Minister through the Universal Life Church; talk about having a backup plan!

Lead Dream Maker – Melissa Toohey joined the team in 2006 and has assisted in many beautiful and detailed events.
She is a very well-loved dream maker by all of the clients she has worked with over the years.
Melissa then decided to further her education thru the University of Phoenix, earning her Master’s Degree in Business Administration. (So you know she’s super organized!)
Melissa does a fantastic job of putting everyone at ease on a wedding day with her warm, energetic and positive personality

Tammy and her team are simply amazing. The level of detail I have seen is impeccable, and I am always impressed with their creativity. I know several brides that have used Special Moments and have been extremely satisfied. Highly recommended.
