"It is always a challenge for me to write a speech with emotion, humor, a laugh and a tear. And to do so as personally as possible. Therefore, for sure, I will do my utmost for this."

My name is Lucie van de Meerakker, I was born in Schaesberg. Since 1988 I have lived in Kerkrade where I feel completely at home.
For 35 years I ran my own modeling agency. I also conducted workshops in etiquette, attitude improvement, presentation techniques and effective communication. Arranged the screening and casting of extras and actors for a television production company.
In short, I have had the opportunity to work with many different people, young and old. For years I have coordinated volunteers for events and charities and I am on the presenters' volunteer team of the WMC.
So the experience of organizing and presenting especially bridal fashion shows at home and abroad inspired me to apply for the position of BABS in 2009, a very special job.
I still have the same passion. It is a privilege to connect two people in marriage. Therefore, I love to perform weddings in Dutch, English or German and, of course, any orientation....
It is always a challenge for me to write a speech with emotion, humor, a laugh and a tear. And to do this as personally as possible. Therefore, for sure, I will do my utmost for this.
It is a great privilege for me when I get to do this for you as BABS.
