Staff Profiles

Cori Rapp: Event Manager
Cori has currently been in the event industry for 7 years, starting out as an assistant sales associate and working her way up to the lead Event Manager. She was hired on at Grand oaks when the building was simply just red steel beams and very much under construction. She graduated in 2005 with a degree in Business Management. Cori shaped Grand Oaks for the Wedding aspect of the business. She love getting to know each and every client on a personal level and clients tend to be more like family than just another bride & groom. In her spare time she enjoys spending time with her husband, Kevin and two beautiful children, Ava and Kaden.
