Jean Ramsden & Corinne Steinbauer-Weldon

During the fall of 2000, Corinne and Jean began carpooling to work. They’d both been engaged for a few months and were knee-deep in wedding planning. Although Corinne and Jean hardly knew each other, it wasn’t long before 99% of their three-hour-a-day commute centered on the intimate details of their upcoming nuptials. From the minute they got into the car, they listened, traded stories, and relied on each other for advice and support.


Orchestrating her own international wedding that included guests from 9 months to 90 years who hailed from seven different countries, was right up Jean’s alley. Having produced media for all ages, Jean is well versed in delivering projects on time, within budget and under pressure, as well as in dealing with devilish details and diva-like attitudes. Her first taste of event planning came as Events Chair and President of Kappa Delta, her university sorority. Jean holds a B.S. from Cornell and a Masters from Harvard. She is currently an entertainment consultant and freelance writer, and resides in Los Angeles, California. Email Jean Ramsden at jean@itsmyweddingsite.com


Before getting married, Corinne was a member of over a dozen wedding parties. When it came time to plan her own wedding (at the ripe “old” age of 37!), she thought it would be a breeze, as she has tons of experience dealing with people’s behavior and organizations. As President of the Coral Gables, Florida Junior Chamber, Corinne managed several hundred volunteers and planned charity events. She has worked in human resources for over twenty years where she has admittedly, “seen it all.” She holds a B.S. from the University of Phoenix. Corinne resides in Charlotte, North Carolina.
