Weddings and the Color Purple
At Roundpeg, our clients come from a wide range of industries. On any given day, we may find ourselves working with a HVAC company, Eye Doctor or DJ. I enjoy the diversity and have become accustomed to switching gears as I move from project to project. So it was unusual when we had two wedding planners ask us to design their sites, one right after the other.
