What do I need to have prepared before my free consultation?

The consultation is where we will determine what service best fits your needs. Preparing what you need beforehand will hone this conversation. You can get an idea of this by reading through the three packages under the “services” tab. If you are looking for floral design, having some idea of what pieces you are looking for is always a good start.

What do your services cost?

There are a number of variables that will affect the cost of each service for your unique wedding. After your free consultation we will be able to give a bid price for your event. This price will be set based on market price of materials, driving distance, number of vendors, and several other factors.

How soon should I book a wedding planner?

Generally 8 months out from the wedding is the bare minimum that we would consider taking on a full planning package client. We keep this in force so we can preserve your peace throughout the process while allowing us to deliver on the event in an excellent manner.

How soon should I book a day-of coordinator?

Day of Coordination is the final execution piece of your wedding and can be one of the last pieces you pull together. However, we book out rapidly and months in advance. If you are thinking you want to have a Day of Coordinator, book as soon as you can! 

As a client, can I call/text/email whenever I want?

In short, yes!

We are your resource for all things wedding and we love to help you! We will respond efficiently and, to the best of our ability, will find the answer you need. Email is our preferred form of communication so we don't lose conversation threads. If you think you will need a lot of help and guidance, we encourage you to consider this as you pick your package. As we carry out our partnership, we may suggest moving up a package if we feel it better suits your needs. 

A wedding coordinator is expensive, can’t my friends or family help out? What are the benefits of hiring a day-of coordinator?

We love the heart friends and family come with—to serve and love you on your wedding day—but we strongly suggest this as a position to hire out and here is why: Day of Coordination requires all of one’s attention and capacity; to have a loved one do this means they are not present to your day to celebrate with you. Also, your coordinator is calling upon many years’ and numerous wedding’s worth of experience, ultimately informing how they are able to lead your vendor team with excellence. The last thing you want is for someone you love to be in over their head regarding your special day, and the truth is, you won’t know until it’s too late. In this instance, we think it’s true that “you get what you pay for.”

Do you have vendors you recommend?

Yes! We have worked with so many amazing vendors and we love to recommend them! This is a big part of what you will receive as a planning client.

What is the difference between a venue coordinator and a wedding coordinator?

A venue coordinator’s job is to ensure that you have everything you are contractually entitled to from the venue. Things like making sure all the tables and chairs are where you need them to be and meeting the needs of the facility (house sound system, lights, parking, stocking toilet paper, etc.) Their job description is to follow through on the contract, which includes making sure you care for the space by their standards. A wedding coordinator is your advocate and mouthpiece for the day. They aim for all the details to go off without a hitch by leading your vendor team and making sure everyone has what they need to thrive. It can help to think about your wedding coordinator as your professional, personal representative for the day: they are there to carry out the details with your desires in mind.
