Lydia McHenry
Founder and Owner
Hi There!
My name is Lydia McHenry and I'm proud to introduce myself as the founder and owner of "Weddings by Lydia"! We celebrated our 5-year anniversary in Pensacola last April and we have our fantastic brides and grooms to thank for that! We also have three prior years of wedding and event planning in Virginia Beach, VA!
I began planning and coordinating weddings and events at a young age while raising my two beautiful children. My love of working with brides from every walk of life and sharing their excitement has always been an honor and privilege and also a lot of fun!
I'm originally from Virginia Beach and have lived in Pensacola for 10 years with my wonderful husband, Greg. I and my team of Wedding Assistants join forces with the most professional vendors along the Gulf Coast of FL and AL to create unique and beautiful weddings and events!
I love to laugh and believe that a good sense of humor can get you through anything! After all, weddings are a celebration of love and life! So, sit back and relax and let us make this most memorable day, a perfect one for you!

I am currently employed as an ESE teacher in Milton, Florida. I also work as a wedding assistant to Lydia. Working with Lydia has allowed me to use my creativity in the best ways I know!

Brittney Anderson
Senior Wedding Coordinator
Hi! I’m from the small town of Defuniak Springs, Florida. I attended University of West Florida and just received my Bachelor’s Degree in Global Hospitality and Tourism Management. I have always loved weddings and events and have helped my family with both. When I first met Lydia and worked my first wedding with her at Weddings by Lydia, I knew that wedding planning and coordinating was exactly what I wanted to do. Throughout 2019, I have worked with Lydia, making sure that we capture the vision of what our bridal couples want and have loved how unique each one is! We’re so excited to be an important part of making Weddings by Lydia a continued success!❣️
