Who’s that Gal: Marley Poniedzielnik

Oh, hi! I’m Marley, and you can find me behind the scenes of The Good Party! I’m usually who you meet when you come in for your initial consultation to talk about your wedding or celebration or maybe I’m writing blog posts or Instagram captions! I’m there on wedding day, I water the office plants, I give Duck and Goose some love – basically whatever The Good Party needs me to do, I’m there!

Get to know me below – but be prepared: I’m a typical Libra (very indecisive) and can’t even pick one answer for the questions I wrote!

Favourite wedding moment of the season?

I was on site for about 20 weddings last season so it’s very hard to choose! Every wedding holds such a special memory. The one that stands out as the most unique was at Mairead and Anthony’s wedding, an Irish dancing Drag Queen came out and did an epic dance routine featuring Mairead in her wedding dress. Seriously, so fun!

Go to wedding day snacks:

Water!! Gotta stay hydrated especially on hot, summer days! Also, bagels.

Favourite Wedding Blooper:

One time the cops showed up to tell us to turn it down because the DJ played “Baby Shark” too loudly and all of Pender Island could hear it.

Favourite wedding dessert:

We had ice cream sandwiches at one, and I was on board 100%

Favourite outside of work pastime:

Reading, watching TV whether it’s a new show or one I’ve seen a million times, and going for a walk while listening to my favourite true crime podcasts.
