Jamie M. Rapavy
In case we have not met over the last 28 years here in Columbus, I can't wait to hear about you and how you can help engaged couples! I have had a passion for connecting wedding pros to engaged couples and other wedding vendors to help them grow! I am so passionate about this industry and coaching fellow business owners take their companies to the next level. Starting out as a wedding planner I know what it is like being a solopreneur and it is not easy- but I would like to help you get more exposure for your company, simplify, advise, and have fun!
Jamie adopted 2 amazing kids at birth, Jude now 15 and Jolie 22. She has been with her husband for 27 years and their key to a long lasting marriage is coming from a hospitality background and lots of laughter! One of her favorite things is going to her tiny home on Indian Lake, traveling, drinking wine, and continuous education. She also has a mini dachshund Jag who is very stinky and old but the sweetest pup ever!

Testimonials
I have been in the wedding business for 20 plus years. When it comes to spending marketing dollars you need to be smart. You need to find ways to make your dollar pull double duty. Devoted Pros does just that. They have memberships that work with any size budget. You can just be on their website & you can also do everything they offer: Wedding shows, Print advertising, have your own page on their website, You can use the resource center to work with couples and the list goes on. They focus on ways to get you in the public eye. We like being a part because they want to be there for you. My company has been a long time advertiser with this marketing resource and believe it our return has been worth the investment.

We LOVE being a Pro Partner with Devoted Columbus! Jamie, Allison and the team truly are exceptional to work with. They take the time to learn your business and always market your business as if it were their own. We value the relationship we have with the team at Devoted Columbus. There are many companies out there to help market your Wedding Business but none of them are locally owned and operated, know the market, and know the business like Devoted Columbus.
