Meet the people behind the designs
As a husband and wife team, we've been in your shoes and know exactly how overwhelming planning a wedding can be. Our primary goal is to take the worry and stress away from couples. By delivering reliable, thoughtful, and stunning design solutions, we ensure that this aspect of wedding planning becomes a joy rather than a burden. We handle the details so couples can focus on what truly matters: celebrating their love surrounded by family and friends.
"Our designs embody meaningful intent, aesthetic harmony, and memorable impact in every detail"
I'm Tara, the creative mind and heart behind Sixpence Signage. As a new mom, I took the leap from a corporate job into the wedding industry, where my passion for design has evolved into a specialized signage business.
I'm thrilled to be a part of making your wedding dreams a reality! Planning a wedding can be overwhelming, but my friendly and enthusiastic personality will help put you at ease. My background in office management combined with my work as a wedding coordinator with Pretty Palm Leaf Events has given me unique insights into creating memorable celebrations.
I'm detail-oriented and creative, ensuring that every aspect of your wedding signage is thoughtfully designed and perfectly executed. My signs become more than just directional pieces — they're meaningful elements that enhance the atmosphere of your special day.
When I'm not designing for weddings, you can find me dreaming of new creative projects (workaholic, through and through!), enjoying time with my family, and finding inspiration in everyday beauty. Let's work together to create beautiful, personalized signage that tells your unique love story!
Tara's Story
On the other side of this venture is my husband Matthew. While weddings weren't originally in his life plan, Matthew was actually the visionary behind Sixpence Signage, encouraging me to start the business based on my creative talents. Self-taught in craftsmanship, he did woodworking and mechanical work on fishing boats and gained valuable expertise working alongside my dad, a professional carpenter. Now, Matthew serves as a full-time firefighter, bringing his precision and calm-under-pressure mindset to our business.
He began dedicating his off-duty hours to join me in our signage venture and discovered a new passion for creating custom builds. Outside our creative business, he's the kind of guy who transforms ordinary moments into adventures. He is perpetually in motion, enjoying fishing, surfing, and trying new drink and food recipes.
Matthew's favorite part of what we do is the moment when he can finally step back to admire the finished product on the wedding day with the extra touches that bring it all together.
