Frequently Asked Questions

Full Service Wedding Planning is our comprehensive package where we handle every aspect of your wedding from start to finish—perfect for busy professionals or those who want complete support. This includes vendor selection, budget management, design planning, timeline creation, and full coordination on your wedding day. Partial Planning is ideal for couples who want to be hands-on with certain aspects but need professional guidance and resources. We provide support where you need it most while giving you flexibility to handle other elements yourself.

While our primary packages are Full Service and Partial Planning, we can discuss day-of coordination options depending on your needs and our availability. We recommend booking at least 6-8 weeks before your wedding date for coordination services to ensure adequate preparation time. Please contact us to discuss your specific requirements.

Absolutely! Our Destination Wedding package is designed for couples who want to celebrate their special day away from home. We handle all the logistics of planning a wedding in a different location—from researching and coordinating with local vendors to managing travel arrangements and ensuring everything runs smoothly. Whether you're dreaming of a beach ceremony or a mountain retreat, we'll help make your destination wedding magical.

We recommend booking as early as possible, especially for Full Service planning. Many couples book 12-18 months in advance, particularly for peak wedding season (May through October). For Partial Planning, 6-12 months is typically sufficient. However, we occasionally have availability for shorter timelines, so don't hesitate to reach out even if your wedding is sooner.

During your complimentary initial consultation, we'll discuss your vision for your special day, your priorities, budget considerations, and any specific ideas you have in mind. We bring a wealth of resources to share for inspiration. Together, we'll create an outline of what's most important to you, and we'll begin working on a comprehensive plan tailored to your unique wedding.

Communication frequency depends on your package and where we are in the planning timeline. Full Service clients typically have weekly or bi-weekly check-ins, plus unlimited email and phone support. Partial Planning clients have scheduled meetings at key milestones. We're always available for urgent questions, and you can reach us via phone, email, or request additional in-person meetings whenever needed.

On your wedding day, we typically arrive 2-3 hours before the ceremony begins to oversee vendor setup, ensure the venue is prepared according to plan, and handle any last-minute details. We remain throughout the entire event until the send-off or end of the reception, coordinating all vendors, managing the timeline, and ensuring everything runs smoothly so you can fully enjoy your special day.

Our pricing varies based on the package you choose, the complexity of your wedding, guest count, and location. Full Service Planning is our premium comprehensive package, while Partial Planning offers a more flexible, budget-friendly option. Destination Weddings have customized pricing based on location and logistics. We provide detailed proposals after our initial consultation once we understand your specific needs.

Yes, we typically structure payments in three installments: a retainer fee (usually 30-40%) to secure your date, a second payment midway through planning, and the final balance due two weeks before your wedding. We're happy to discuss payment plans that work within your budget and planning timeline.

Our proposals are comprehensive and transparent. Any potential additional costs—such as travel fees for destination weddings, extended hours, or special requirements—will be clearly outlined in your contract. We believe in full transparency so there are no surprises. If your wedding requires accommodations beyond our standard packages, we'll discuss these upfront.

As a 3rd generation native of the area, I have strong community ties and valuable connections with the best venues, florists, photographers, caterers, and other wedding professionals.

Absolutely! Your involvement level is entirely up to you. Some couples prefer us to present curated options based on their vision and budget, while others want to be part of every meeting and decision.
