When you are planning a wedding, sometimes you don’t know right away that you need a professional’s help. The thing is somebody has to be in charge of everything – somebody has to make sure there is a working timeline for your vendors to set up and there’s enough time to get all of the details set before the ceremony and reception begin. Enjoying your wedding day is important for you and your loved ones. If you need a professional, my team and I are here to help! While most of our work with you will happen in the last month or two, we book up well in advance, so book early. Services vary by individual needs but may include the following services:

  • Assistance evaluating where you are in the planning process
    • reviewing the contracts you’ve already signed to confirm exactly what services you are going to receive from your vendor team
    • Vendor recommendations if you may have gaps to fill
  • Budget tracking guidance and collaborative planning tool access
  • I attend your final walkthrough or 1 key vendor meeting with you
  • Timeline creation assistance for vendors and wedding party
  • Guidance with RSVP tracking, meal selection counts for catering (plated service), and table chart

Green Weddings

Many people wrongly believe you must make sacrifices and spend more to leave a smaller carbon footprint on your wedding day. I always plan and design with an eye towards sustainability and green practices. If the environmental impact of your wedding is important to you, I can help shape your vendor and planning choices accordingly.
