Karen Wilson

CEO

Karen brings to our Team a strong passion for the Catering and Event Industry, offering over 25 years of extensive BOH & FOH. She leads by example, willing to share her knowledge, and is very detailed with a strong work ethic. Karen is a Ryerson University Hospitality & Tourism Management and Cordon Bleu School (London, England), graduate. 

​

It’s no secret that Walt Disney offers the best customer service in the world and Karen fueled her passion with learning from the best as a Canadian Ambassador at Epcot Centre, Florida; together with her extensive off-premise catering career working for some of the top-rated employers both internationally and locally in the industry, including having owned and operated her own catering company. Karen’s knowledge and experience have made her an industry leader. 

​

Experience and industry knowledge gives her insight into and the ability to curate a sophisticated and luxurious event, from the inception of the concept to the realization of the event. Along the way she continually builds long lasting client relationships and in some case lifetime relationships. 

As quoted, “All I can say is I love perfection – there are no exceptions in creating and hosting an unforgettable experience, as I take every opportunity in creating a positive and memorable experience for everyone of our guests. I offer impeccable standards of service that both delight and surprises our guests in every way!” 

​

Karen’s passion to excel at offering the best at every curated event is evident, with how meticulous and focused she is on the finer details, giving each event she works on a special touch. Nothing goes by Karen un-noticed, and she offers only the absolute best for her clients.

 

Lauren Scott

Events & Sales Coordinator

The charm and elegance of The CAPE captured the heart of Lauren and she knew she just HAD to be a part of the team. When the opportunity arose for an Events and Sales Coordinator position, Lauren jumped at the chance. 

 

Lauren’s love of events, especially weddings, began when she was just a child and it was evident then, that she wanted to work at planning a couples’ intimate and special day. As a creative individual, Lauren started her post-secondary education in Sales and Marketing at Loyalist College, upon graduating she made the bold decision to move to London Ontario, where she started working as a bridal consultant. It was here that she fell in love with the Events World all over again and decided to return to school; this time adding to her portfolio a Public Relations - Event Management Certificate with Honours. 

 

Lauren joins our team as the Events & Marketing Coordinator. She has pursued a career that combines her creative marketing side to her love of planning events. Years of experience and devotion to the industry fueled by her passion allows for her to see dreams come true. Truly an incredibly invaluable member of our team. 

 

Get to know Lauren on a personal level: I am a self-titled Princess; ever since I was a little girl I always imagined I was a princess living in a big castle, and one day I would ride away into the sunset with my Prince Charming, living happily ever after. I come from an arts background, and love getting creative whenever possible. I spend my weekends off doing craft time with my stepsons and spending quality time with my partner, Kyle. I am also a bit of a nerd, with Lord of The Rings being my all-time favourite book series AND film series, followed closely by Harry Potter, and then pretty much every Disney movie ever.
