    “A” Team Wedding Planners!

    I cannot recommend Wedding Planning Plus enough. They are absolutely the wedding planners you want on your team leading up to and by your side on the big day. We had the partial wedding planning package which was perfect for us. They were always on top of things and getting us reminders and what we should be working on as the months progressed towards the wedding day. Helping us find 5 vendors and setting up meetings took off a lot of stress and worry. Anytime we had a meeting it made the experience exciting and less stressful, especially when we got to talk about decor! They made wedding planning fun. The day of the wedding they were extremely attentive, always checking in and making sure everything is going according to plan. Our wedding day was absolutely perfect and we could not have done it without this amazing team: Eliza, Alissa, Jeshica, Margette, and Shannon! They are truly the best at what they do!

    Fantastic Experience!

    We brought on Eliza at Wedding Planning Plus as a day-of coordinator for our wedding at Forest Lake Camp, and she did a fantastic job! Leading up to our big day, she was available whenever we had questions or concerns, and completely took over as point-of-contact with all our vendors. She helped us create a timeline of events for the entire day, and kept our whole wedding party on track so we could relax and enjoy every second of our wedding. We highly recommend Eliza and any planner through Wedding Planning Plus to help with planing your wedding!

    Daniel, thank you so much for your kind words! It was such a joy being part of your Forest Lake Camp wedding. What an incredible setting for an unforgettable day. I’m so glad you felt supported leading up to the celebration and that handing off vendor communication and timeline management allowed you both to truly relax and soak it all in. That’s exactly what we’re here for. Your recommendation means the world to us. Wishing you both a lifetime of happiness and lake-day memories! - Wedding Planning Plus 💙

    Wedding Planning Super Heroes

    My husband and I got married in September 2025 and we hired WPP in Spring 2024. From the first meeting with Shannon, we immediately knew WPP was the right fit for us. We did have an unfortunate situation about 6 months into the early planning, where our original wedding planner decided to leave however, this was truly a blessing in disguise because we ended up getting Eliza as our new wedding planner. Eliza was the perfect fit for us. She is the best there is and we are honestly so lucky with how the situation turned out! She truly listened to everything we said, was a great and efficient communicator, made sure we were on top of deadlines, and was a genuine sweetheart throughout the whole wedding planning process. Alissa, the assistant event planner, was also there every step of the way and was so on top of everything. A major powerhouse that WPP has, is the amazing Margette. Margette is a genius and I still cannot believe how incredible she was able to create our wedding space based off my crazy concepts. I feel like she read my mind and always had a solution to everything. Our decor was beyond what I ever could have imagined and for probably more than half the price of what a lot of other people spend. Every wedding deserves a Margette, Eliza, Alissa, and Shannon! I seriously miss my monthly meetings with Eliza and I genuinely feel like the WPP ladies are our friends now.

    The best team ever!!

    Shannon and Alissa were absolutely incredible to work with. We hired WWP for day-of coordination, and they made the entire day flow effortlessly thanks to their organization, attention to detail, and calming presence. They handled every detail with such care and confidence that we were able to be fully present and enjoy every moment. We couldn’t have asked for a better team and are so grateful for everything they did to make our wedding absolutely perfect.

It means a lot to hear that you were able to fully enjoy your wedding without worrying about a thing. We’re really grateful we got to be a part of it. - Wedding Planning Plus 💙

    The BEST wedding planning team!

    Shannon and her team are a masterclass in wedding planning! We engaged Wedding Planning Plus for full-service planning, design, and coordination for our welcome party, ceremony, reception, and afterparty - and we are so glad we did. They sourced incredible vendors, patiently answered our (many) questions, and rolled up their sleeves to perfect every detail, from the number of forks in our rental order to floral color palettes to minute-by-minute show flows. Day-of coordination was truly seamless. With the Wedding Planning Plus team handling absolutely everything behind the scenes, my husband and I were able to be fully present and enjoy every second of our special weekend. We cannot recommend them highly enough.

    Kelly and Joe, thank you so much for this incredible review! Planning your full weekend, from the welcome party to the afterparty, was such an amazing journey, and Shannon and the team loved bringing every detail to life with you. Knowing you were able to be fully present and enjoy every second is exactly why we do what we do. We’re so grateful you trusted WPP with such a special celebration! - Wedding Planning Plus 💙


WPP was created in 2007 and has planned and coordinated over 1,000 weddings and events in and around Upstate New York. WPP's team is deep - Shannon is the Owner and Lead Operator, Eliza is the team's main Event Planner, Margette is the in-house Event Designer, Alissa is the Planning Assistant, and there are a dozen Lead and Assistant Wedding Coordinators who specialize in the onsite management on wedding day. From kick off to send off the WPP team is masterful at easing stress, elevating designs, and creating magical wedding experiences for all of their couples.
For couples utilizing WPP's services, the process is smooth and streamlined to continually make progress while keeping the experience fun, relaxed, and stress-free. WPP uses online planning tools to keep every detail organized, and is available for email, phone and Zoom calls to stay connected with couples who live out of the area. All of the planners and coordinators on the team are from Upstate New York and are experts in the best local venues and vendors. Most couples describe their experience working with WPP to feel like they are planning with their best friend - someone who understands them and guides them in a personal way.
WPP takes an initial retainer fee upon booking, and then depending on the package there is either a second or third payment spread out over time (for planning services) and then a final payment due a few weeks before the wedding day (planning and coordination services). Payments can all be made online for a quick and easy booking process.
WPP's approach is ultra personal to highlight what is special and unique about each of their couples. While other planners have a set vendor list or a cookie cutter method of putting a wedding together, WPP relies on their insight and their relationship with their couples to get to know them and ensure that every piece of their wedding day is uniquely "them". From the color palette to the way food is presented to the last song played at the end of the night, each of WPP's events are different and special and perfectly fit for each individual couple.
