About Dearly Beloved Wedding Planning
Dearly Beloved Wedding Planning
Congratulations, fiancee! Emily here, owner and heart of Dearly Beloved Wedding Planning. My love for weddings began like many others- scrolling the depths of Pinterest back in the mason jar and burlap days. Although my design change has evolved, my excitement for all things weddings stuck, and my passion for people, creativity, and organization skills has led me to the industry I was meant to be in. Now with over 150 weddings executed, my passion is stronger than ever! It is truly my joy to be your Michigan Wedding Coordinator or Planner.
My passion lies in empowering couples to actually enjoy their wedding day with each other and with their closest loved ones. Weddings are a once in a lifetime thing, and I know first hand that it's so easy to get caught up in the whirlwind of the small (and sometimes overwhelming) details, but my promise to you is to handle all of the logistics and moving parts behind the scenes so you can truly relax, be present, and soak in every precious moment. I am here to be your trusted expert, design buff, sounding board, and everything in between.
In three words: Calm, Organized, Positive

Truly Talented
Dearly Beloved Wedding Planning made our wedding day run like clockwork, and we couldn't have asked for better. Emily stayed on top of everything from start to finish, and her communication was always clear and responsive. What really stood out was how stealthy she was on the day itself—things were already handled before we even realized they needed to be. She honored every special request we had and was genuinely easy to work with throughout the whole process. The level of detail and care she brought to our day felt priceless. Honestly, we wish Emily could coordinate our lives too—she's just that good at what she does!

An absolute must! Highly Recommend!
From our first conversation, Emily at Dearly Beloved Wedding Planning made it clear she knew exactly what she was doing. We had a complex wedding with lots of moving pieces, and she kept everything organized and on track with a level of detail that honestly blew us away. Her timeline was so thorough and well-thought-out that it gave us the confidence we needed to actually pull off our vision. On the day itself, Emily stayed focused and calm, adjusting things on the fly when needed and making sure every moment happened exactly as planned. We absolutely owe the success of our wedding to hiring her. If you're looking for a planner who is detail-oriented, accountable, and will execute your vision flawlessly, Emily is your person.
