Bio:

After a successful career as a television producer, Stacie launched Get Married in 2006, growing the company into a nationally renowned wedding planning resource byconnecting brides and advertisers through three uniquemedia platforms - online, television and magazine.

During her time at Get Married, Stacie developed and served as Executive Producer for Get Married with David Tutera & Get Married with Colin Cowie, both on Lifetime, then as the On-Air Host during its final season on WeTV & Wedding Central.

She was the visionary behind the publication Get Married - The Shopping & Trend guide for the Savvy Bride, serving as Editor-in-Chief while filling a gap in the bridal market, and growing the title into a nationally distributed quarterly magazine.

As Get Married's Founder, Stacie was a highly sought-after public speaker and industry insider, addressing wedding professionals and brides around the country, with guest appearances on CNN, Fox, WABC, and more.

Stacie also developed and hosted the successful web series Get Married in Times Square, planning and hosting the first-of-its-kind wedding event on New Years Eve 2010. Having sold the company, and after much soul searching, in February of 2011, Stacie stepped down as Editor-in-Chief to pursue new business ventures.

Currently, Stacie is busier than ever being a strong female entrepreneur again: she recently launched her mentoring program for small business owners to consult with them on all things business related called Inspire Smart Success (www.inspiresmartsuccess.com)  and is hosting the ISS Experience all over the country. She is also working with production companies on new television concepts both from a hosting perspective and Executive Producer perspective, and if that's not enough, one of the most exciting projects she has started is writing a book due out in a couple of months!

Stacie is a Founding Board Member of an organization called Wish Upon a Wedding.

Notable Awards: 2011 Wedding Innovator of the Year Award; Finalist in "Leading Moms in Business" Competition; Received Norah Award for "Celebrating Wedding Industry Luminaries"; Awarded #25 out of 50 "Most Amazing Women on the Web"
