OUR ORIGINAL WEDDING PLANNER UNFORTUNATELY HAD TO BACK OUT JUST I WEEK BEFORE OUR BIG DAY. WE WERE DESPERATELY SEARCHING FOR SOMEONE TO HELP US ON A BUDGET AND SO LAST MINUTE AND WE ARE SO THANKFUL THAT CONNOR STEPPED UP! SHE WAS ABLE TO MEET WITH US BEFOREHAND AND ORGANIZE EVERYTHING FROM TIMELINE, VENDORS, DECORATIONS, AND DETAILS I HADN'T EVEN THOUGHT ABOUT! SHE ALSO CAME TO HELP US DURING OUR REHEARSAL DINNER TO MAKE SURE EVERYTHING RAN SMOOTHLY. ON THE WEDDING DAY. CONNOR WAS EXTREMELY PROFESSIONAL AND MADE SURE TO PRIORITIES MY WANTS FOR THE DAY OVER EVERYBODY ELSE! ONE OF MY PRIORITIES WAS THAT GUESTS DID NOT ENTER THE VENUE BEFORE A CERTAIN TIME, AND WHEN GUESTS STARTED SHOWING UP EARLY CONNOR RESPECTFULLY TOLD THEM TO WAIT OUTSIDE AS SHE KNEW THAT WAS IMPORTANT TO ME. SHE ALSO CONTINUALLY UPDATED ME THROUGHOUT THE GETTING READY PROCESS WITH HOW THE DECORATIONS WERE LOOKING, ASKED ME QUESTIONS ABOUT PREFERENCES, AND MADE SURE I ALSO HAD EVERYTHING I NEEDED! THE REST OF THE CEREMONY AND RECEPTION WENT INCREDIBLY SMOOTH AND SHE WAS QUICK TO HELP TEAR DOWN THE VENUE AND RETURN ALL THE DECORATIONS TO THEIR PROPER PLACE.

My work is rooted in culture, connection, and crafting a day that feels like home from the first look to the final goodbye. I’m based in Austin and happily travel wherever love calls me. Weddings within sixty miles follow standard rates; outside that range, travel fees apply. Out of state weddings may require flights, but the heart I bring travels well.

We told her our vision—and she brought it to life better than we imagined.” We didn’t want a big traditional wedding. We just wanted a space to celebrate our elopement with the people we love, in a way that felt real and us. Nae listened—like really listened—to what mattered to us, and turned those ideas into a soulful, intentional experience. It wasn’t over-the-top or generic. It was warm, personal, and full of meaning.

I'm Silvu D.J. Ehlert, a Michigan wedding planner passionate about creating beautiful moments locally and internationally, including LGBTQIA+ weddings. I believe every celebration tells a unique story!

My wife and I were very stressed going into the planning of our wedding, but the Momente Frumoase team put us at ease right away. Their communication was clear and consistent, and their quick response times made us feel like we were their top priority. They were efficient, attentive, and truly created a “Four Seasons” level of experience for us. We are so grateful for everything they did—thank you, Momente Frumoase!
