Question 1

What’s included in your full-service planning packages?

Accepted Answer

Every client gets a custom planning roadmap, full-day on-site production, vendor coordination, design support, and personalized communication from start to finish. You’ll have a dedicated lead planner, access via email, text, and voice memo, and a process built to match your pace. Whether you want a fully guided experience or just a trusted co-pilot, both packages give you clarity, structure, and support through every step.

Question 2

What’s the difference between The Full Edit and The Select?

Accepted Answer

Both are full-service planning experiences. The Full Edit is for clients who want us to take the lead. We manage every moving part, from timelines and budgets to vendor communication and logistics. The Select is for clients who want to stay involved in areas they care about. We guide the process, provide tools and structure, and step in fully when it's go-time. Same polish, same peace of mind. Just different levels of “please take this off my plate.”

Question 3

Will I still make decisions, or do you take over everything?

Accepted Answer

You're always the decision-maker, we just make those decisions easier. With The Full Edit, we lead the process and bring you curated options to approve. With The Select, you're more hands-on in terms of research and outreach in the areas you care about. In both cases, we're behind the scenes managing timelines, vendors, and production so you can focus on the fun stuff.

Question 4

How early should we reach out to book you?

Accepted Answer

We typically book 12–18 months out for weddings and 10–12 months for other events. If you’re even thinking about hiring a planner, it’s worth reaching out now. We’ll walk you through your options, answer questions, and hold your hand through the decision if you need it. Early contact = better planning and less stress later.

Question 5

Do you help with design, or do I need a separate designer?

Accepted Answer

You already know what looks good. Our role is to understand your style, help you refine the vision, and connect you with the right creative vendors to bring it to life. No upsells, no pressure, no forcing you to pick between ivory and ecru (unless you just found out you’re an autumn...then, ecru, obviously). We make sure your event feels as good as it looks. Beautiful doesn’t matter if it doesn’t run well. We deliver both.

Question 6

What kinds of events do you plan?

Accepted Answer

We plan weddings, mitzvahs, milestone celebrations, and corporate events across NJ, NYC, the Hudson Valley, and Upstate New York. We also handle rehearsal dinners, after-parties, welcome events—if it’s part of your celebration weekend or needs structure and style, we’re in.

Question 7

What makes your planning process different from other planners?

Accepted Answer

We combine structure with intuition. From day one, you get a lead planner who’s backed by our full team, so things never fall through the cracks. We’re emotionally intelligent, highly organized, and focused on making planning work with your life, not take it over. Our process is clear, calm, and collaborative. No chaos. No chasing updates. Just smart decisions and a steady pace.

Question 8

Do you work with specific venues or vendor teams?

Accepted Answer

We work across a wide range of venues in NJ, NYC, the Hudson Valley, and Upstate NY. We don’t push preferred lists, we build teams based on your vibe, priorities, and budget. We’ll connect you with vendors we trust and manage all communication to keep things smooth.

Question 9

What if I’ve already booked a venue or some vendors?

Accepted Answer

Totally fine. Many of our clients come to us mid-way through planning. Whether you’ve booked a few vendors or haven’t started at all, we’ll meet you where you are, assess what’s been done, and build a strategy to carry it through. You don’t need to have it all figured out, just the right team to figure it out with.
