Marc Goneau - Ottawa, Ontario

President

Ottawa, Ontario

Consulting

- To expand my event planning company, as well as my medium-size vending machine company to serve more people in the Ottawa area, and bring more funds to CHEO. To do more acting!!!!!

I was born and raised in Ottawa, and am the President of the very exciting event planning company called Legacy Event Planning. My resourcefulness, initiative, energy, as well as attention to detail, combined with strong organizational skills are a natural fit for the event planning industry.

To ensure superior customer service, I meticulously oversee the companys day-to-day operations. I will personally get involved in many of the larger special events, and associates with like-minded vendors.

My professional background includes graduating with honors from a very in-depth and extensive Event and Wedding Planning course, earning me the International Event and Wedding Planning Professional (IEWP) certification. Before that, I spent the better part of seven years organizing, structuring and contributing to several and various type of events within the public sector. During that time, I also acquired a solid background and broad experience in project management, finances, human resources and contracts.

Legacy Event Planning services are geared toward the corporate world, as well as the public and private sectors. One of the exceptional features that we are very proud of is that our high-level services are offered both in English, as well as in French! Our belief and conviction, as your Ottawa event planner of choice, is that events of all kinds and size should be orchestrated in the utmost meticulous and precise fashion with resourceful and creative methods to project the clients image in the most favorable and attractive light.

I also own a medium-size vending machine business in collaboration with CHEO, here in Ottawa, and would truly appreciate if you would be kind enough to get in touch with me if you either own a business or know a business owner who would agree to let us bring over a small mint, small bubble-gum, or super-size bubble gum vending machine to their place of business to help raise funds for CHEO. The machines all take only approx 20" of floor space and are around 4' high.

I also do some part-time acting, and am represented by Otawa's Angie's Models and Talent International Angency.
