Question 1

When should I hire a wedding planner?

Accepted Answer

We’d love to start working with you at any point in the process. However, our hope is to start at the very beginning with our couples. This allows us to suggest the right venue and vendors based on your desired wedding budget, and to ensure that we are best able to maximize that budget according to your needs, wants, and must-haves. That being said, we’re happy to assist you whenever you need support in your wedding planning journey.

Question 2

Can I hire you if I've already hired some of my vendors?

Accepted Answer

Of course! We’re happy to pick up where you left off and coordinate with any of your current vendors to ensure no detail is unaccounted for as your wedding vision comes to life. We also have a list of preferred vendors. So if there are vendors you’re still looking to contract, we’re happy to curate a list of potential options that match your budget, aesthetic, and personality.

Question 3

What level of support is right for me?

Accepted Answer

The best way to determine what level of support is right for you is by reaching out to us to schedule a complimentary consultation. Once we learn more about your vision, how involved you desire to be in the planning process, and more about the logistics of your event we can suggest the best option for you. We’d also be happy to customize a package based on your event needs.

Question 4

What is the payment structure for your packages?

Accepted Answer

A retainer is due upon signing the contract to secure your date. Depending on the package you choose, the remaining balance will be split up throughout the planning process with the final balance due before the wedding day.

Question 5

What happens if I hire you for one package but realize I need more support?

Accepted Answer

You’re welcome to increase the level of support at any point and upgrade to a more comprehensive package if you realize that you require more assistance with the planning process.

Question 6

If there are additional tasks that I need assistance with, can I add those to my package?

Accepted Answer

If there are additional services you need help with that aren’t outlined in your desired package, we’d be happy to add them in and create a custom package for you. Feel free to browse any of our add-ons to view the additional services that we provide.

Question 7

How much access do I get to you as my planner?

Accepted Answer

Our goal is to be there for you throughout the entire process. You are able to schedule meetings and phone calls as needed, although we will be regularly checking in to ensure that everything is going smoothly, and no issues arise. In order to provide you with the best level of service, we have guidelines in place to streamline the communication process. This is to ensure whenever you reach out we can respond with our full attention and make note of any important details mentioned during our conversation.

	Full-service planning	Partial planning	Elopement / microwedding	Day-of coordination / wedding management
Description	Our Full Planning service provides comprehensive support from the initial vision to the final send-off. Perfect for couples seeking a hands-on, guided experience, this service includes expert assistance with every aspect of the planning process—from vendor selection and contract management to budgeting, design, and day-of coordination.	Partial Planning is designed for couples who have laid the groundwork but need expert guidance to bring it all together. Perfect for those feeling the pressure in the final months, this service offers focused support without the full-scale involvement of our comprehensive planning package. While not as extensive as Full Planning—which begins 12+ months out—Partial Planning typically starts around 4–6 months before your wedding.	Weddings with fewer than 30 guests are considered “micro weddings”—intimate celebrations focused on what matters most. This service is ideal for couples planning a smaller gathering with close friends and family, while still embracing the beauty and tradition of a full wedding experience.	Month-Of Coordination is the perfect service for couples who desire to handle the entire planning process themselves but want to hand over the reins prior to the big day. Our job is to step in and coordinate any of the final details and manage all of the logistics for your event, leaving you to enjoy the last moments before you walk down the aisle.
