Bridget often describes her approach to event planning as her dharma- a Sanskrit word that refers to one’s life purpose, or the work you’re meant to do in service of others. For her, that purpose is bringing people together to celebrate life’s most meaningful moments and creating experiences where guests feel seen and connected.

As the oldest of five in a big Irish family, Bridget grew up in a home where gathering mattered. Holidays meant setting extra places at the table, and every milestone, from birthdays to graduations, was always a reason to celebrate. Her upbringing influenced her love for bringing people together and her deep belief that a well-planned event can make people feel seen, loved, and connected.

After planning her own wedding in 2023, Bridget worked in the wedding industry, supporting couples and being part of wedding days from planning through execution. That time offered a behind-the-scenes perspective on what it takes to bring a celebration together seamlessly and ultimately led her to build Milestones by McCormack, rooted in thoughtful, intentional planning.

When she’s not busy planning, you can find Bridget spending time with her husband and their dog, Sadie, or out on a run training for her next race!
