"It’s all pretty simple… I love Love! It is such an honor to be able to share in the joy of wedding couples and their families while planning for one of the most celebrated and happiest days of their lives. Working with people is my passion! I enjoy building that personal relationship with couples and having the opportunity to pull all the details together to create a memorable and extraordinary guest experience for all!" Angie has been with Stafford's for 20+ years and considers it her "home", she has helped over 1000 couples plan the wedding of their dreams and loves her job in the hospitality industry.

Jill joined Stafford's Hospitality in 2015 working in banquets at The Perry Hotel. As a side gig that was totally different from her "grown up job," she has enjoyed meeting and working with so many different people from around the world every season. Of course, she’ll be the first to brag about the amazing core staff too, who couldn't be more thoughtful, talented, and cohesive as a group – she truly does love working with the Stafford’s team!
Jill has always hoped she’d have the opportunity to join Stafford's full-time, so she is genuinely excited to get to work in her new role as the Catering Manager.

After visiting often to admire its scenic views and serene landscapes, Lindsey has now put down roots in Petoskey. She recently joined the Stafford’s Sales Department, assisting in event planning and coordination. What Lindsey loves most about the hospitality industry is meeting people all over and helping bring their visions to life. Lindsey also appreciates the culture of Stafford’s Hospitality. She feels everyone you interact with has the same goal in mind: making the guests feel welcomed and leave with the best experience possible.
