    Candace is AMAZING!

    I've had the pleasure of working alongside Candace at weddings all over Idaho, and I can confidently say she is one of the most talented coordinators I've worked with. Candace originally worked with me at Idaho Concierge Company, where she took over wedding planning and day-of coordination as Idaho Tipsy Trailers continued to grow. Trusting someone else with my clients wasn't a decision I made lightly, but Candace exceeded every expectation. She has an incredible eye for detail, genuinely cares about every couple she works with, and has a calm, approachable presence that immediately puts everyone at ease. She handles challenges with professionalism and grace, often resolving issues before anyone even realizes they happened, allowing her clients to simply enjoy their day. I would trust Candace with any event, and I can't recommend her highly enough. Any couple would be lucky to have her by their side.

    Highly Recommend Candace

    I have had the pleasure of working with Candace on many events over the years. She is consistently professional, efficient, and dependable. She brings a sense of calm and organization to environments that are often fast-paced and chaotic. Her years of experience are evident in the quality of her work, and she is someone I can always count on to help ensure an event runs smoothly.

    Perfect wedding day

    Our wedding was a small, intimate celebration at a beautiful vineyard, and we couldn't have asked for a better planner. From start to finish, her attention to detail was absolutely incredible. Every element was thoughtfully planned, and her uncanny organization made the entire process feel seamless and stress-free. On our wedding day, everything came together flawlessly, allowing us to simply be present and enjoy every moment. She truly made our day feel magical, personal, and so incredibly special. If you're looking for someone who is organized, attentive, and genuinely invested in creating the perfect wedding, we can't recommend her highly enough!

A wedding planner helps bring your vision to life from the very beginning—creating the overall design, selecting vendors, managing budgets, and guiding the planning process from start to finish. A wedding coordinator steps in closer to the celebration to organize the details, confirm logistics, manage timelines, and ensure your wedding day runs smoothly. At Cousin Candace Weddings & Events, I specialize in thoughtful coordination—helping couples feel prepared, supported, and able to fully enjoy their wedding day without worrying about the details.
Planning weddings has always been a dream of mine. After planning my own wedding and helping friends over the years, I officially stepped into the wedding industry in 2024. Since then, I’ve worked as an independent contractor alongside experienced wedding professionals, supporting seven weddings over the past two years. I love refining timelines, managing details, and helping couples feel joyful and authentic throughout their day. My specialty is thoughtful month-of coordination, and the gatherings surrounding your wedding—from welcome parties to farewell brunches. I bring the care and support you’d expect from your honorary cousin.
Yes! I can assist with bookings, reservations, setup, decorating, venue research, vendor coordination, guest experiences, and in-person support from your rehearsal dinner to your farewell brunch. Just like I do for month-of coordination, but for your other events! Pricing depends on scope of the event.

Absolutely! While I’m based in Boise, Idaho, I love traveling for celebratory gatherings. My goal is simple: travel efficiently, arrive prepared, and provide the same level of care and attention you would receive locally.
I love weddings that feel personal and intentional—whether that means an intimate gathering, a mountain celebration, a backyard wedding, or a destination event.
My goal is for you to never have to know when something unexpected happens. I stay calm, problem-solve behind the scenes, and communicate with vendors so you can stay focused on celebrating. I also know I don't always have the answer for everything. In that case, you have provided me with a trusted day-of contact who I can reach out to while you are getting your final touches before the wedding.
Start by reaching out and sharing your wedding details! We’ll chat about your plans, what support you need, and whether Cousin Candace Weddings & Events is the right fit for your celebration.
Your wedding day should be about celebrating—not managing timelines, answering vendor questions, or solving unexpected problems. As your coordinator, I bring the organization and experience needed to keep everything moving smoothly behind the scenes. I help protect your time, your investment, and your ability to be fully present for the moments you’ll remember forever.
