About Sleeping Bee Designs
Sleeping Bee Designs
Aside from my love for all-things-events-and-weddings, I am a cat mom, dog mom (to the best dog ever, truly), goofy type-A (yes, we exist). I love everything coffee, purple, and vintage; I almost never go somewhere without red lipstick. And you’ll probably see me somewhere in downtown Frederick at least twice a week.
We really focus on the couples' concerns and want to make sure that we work within the planning method that makes you the most comfortable. The work we do with you for coordination starts 3 months out because in order for us to be experts on your epic day, we need to talk to you and your vendors about it while also helping you close out the last things on your list of to-dos. Based in Frederick, we specialize in Frederick-based weddings and vendor selection.

Organized & Reliable
We love working weddings with Sleeping Bee Design, when our brides work with Sarah we know we are sure to get all the details we need with plenty of time to make adjustments if needed and coordinate together. Her documents are thoughtfully put together for everyone to have clarity and peace of mind which helps keep everyone on the same page during the planning process! Thanks so much Sarah we look forward to working with you again soon!
Best decision we made!
I could write a book about Sarah, truly. We hired her because we could tell right off the bat that she knew her stuff, and for her experience working with our venue, Union Mills Public House. Sarah was instrumental throughout the wedding planning process in helping our vision come together and answering any and all questions we had pop up. Whether it was helping me choose the right rugs that matched the venue, to helping us create a ceremony layout that fit our vision, to helping me understand exactly how much of everything we needed. Leading up to the wedding, Sarah was extremely communicative with both us and our vendors, ensuring that everything was absolutely in line. I can't event count the amount of times that my husband and I looked at each other and went "we literally could not have done this without Sarah." We had a lofty vision with a ton of details, and every single one of them was taken into account by Sarah and her team the day of. She kept the timeline moving incredibly well - working in step with the caterers, our photographer, videographer, DJ, and even our family members and wedding party. You can just tell that there is so much passion in the way that Sarah works. It was so easy to develop the level of trust in her and her team to bring together the best day of our lives, and hiring her as our coordinator was by far the best decision we made in our planning process.
Highly Recommend SBD
Working with Sleeping Bee Designs was a dream! From the moment we booked with SBD, we knew we made the right decision. Sarah did not hesitate to answer our questions and offer advice for many aspects of our planning process! The materials Sarah provided to us to fill out the event details helped us stay organized and have a clear understanding of what needed to be planned. In the weeks leading up to our wedding, we were able to breathe easily knowing our event was in good hands. Sarah and Emily executed our decor vision even better than we had imagined. Our family, friends, AND other vendors commented on how organized and efficient the SBD team was. Not to mention coming prepared with everything including supplies to secure my dress after I tore a hole in it! We won’t hesitate to recommend SBD to our friends and family for their event coordination needs.
Best coordinator!!!
My wedding was Jan 12 2024 and I started the planning process around the spring of 2023. I thought I had everything under control but as we got closer, I realized I needed someone to help tie together all the details and help ensure our day went smoothly. I reached out to Sarah in October 2023 and it was the best decision I made. She helped me plan an after party, pull everything together from decor to rehearsal dinner and everything in between. She is incredibly communicative and is such a joy to work with. Our day would not be the same without her. If you’re looking for someone to help plan your wedding I cannot recommend her enough!!
