Events Specialist
Natasha Tobias-Cooper
Hello everyone! I would love to introduce myself and give some insight on where we all got started. My name is Natasha and I am the founder of NWE Weddings & Events. My love and passion for weddings started back over 20 years ago when I used to be a highly sought after wedding DJ. During this time in my life, I was in awe of the wedding industry and all that was necessary to make the perfect day come true. After years of DJing multiple weddings and events, and also seeing wedding days from start to finish, I decided to take a wedding planning course. This is when my true passion for a career change came to life! We are now presently involved in over 500 weddings and events each and every year and this would not be able to happen without our fantastic team members. I am truly blessed for having them in my life, along with all our amazing clients – past, present, and future.
Founder
Paul Tobias- Cooper
Say hello to Paul, also known as Natasha’s amazing husband. Paul joined our team back in August 2016. Oh, happy day! Being a workaholic, Natasha had no time to spend with the love of her life, so they made a mutual decision for Paul to leave his other career and come join the NWE team to grow this wonderful wedding and event business even more. From lugging bins and rolling out stacks of chairs for deliveries, to setting up arbours, backdrops, and even ceiling drapes, he is just what this company needed!
