Your Wedding Team

Lindsey Kurtz, Director of Catering Sales

The first thing to know about me is that I LOVE what I do! Nothing excites me more than when I get to meet a bride and groom for the first time and unveil to them all the beauty and elegance our resort has to offer as the canvas for their wedding day. My favorite moment is when I see the bride look at her groom, and with just her eyes, she says “This is it! This is the place!” From that point on, I absolutely love getting to know my bride and groom as well as their families as we begin planning the best day of their lives.

I was raised in Central Florida and graduated from the University of Florida with a degree in Advertising and a minor in Hospitality Management.  I love weddings! I love meeting my bride and groom, hearing about how they met and the proposal. Every couple has their own “story” and that is what makes every couple and every wedding unique.  I love seeing and feeling the love in the room not only between the couple but from all of the family and friends who have been lucky enough to experience the journey of the couple thus far. The wedding isn’t the end but only the beginning of a beautiful marriage.

Amanda Demore, Catering Sales Manager

I am a true Florida girl, born in Daytona Beach and raised here in ChampionsGate. I graduated in Interdisciplinary Studies with a minor in Hospitality from the University of Central Florida. Go Knights! 

Weddings and events have always held a special place in my heart. My first experience was as a volunteer at a golf tournament, followed by planning small events for friends and family. This led to my pursuit of an Event Management certificate so I could turn my passion into a career. I love piecing together all of the details to produce one memorable day to be cherished for years to come. 

My favorite part of a wedding day is the moment just before opening doors to the reception when the bride and groom are introduced as a married couple for the first time. The excitement in their eyes captivates me and reminds me of all the work that went into the planning process, and led to that exact moment. As the night progresses, the love and energy of the room radiates as friends and family share the special moments that will be remembered forever. It is what keeps me going!
