frequently asked questions

We book our Event Management package 18 months out, but typically couples are booking 6-12 months out. If your wedding day is approaching quickly and you've just realized you need a coordinator, no worries! We can jump on board at nearly any point, help you tie all your hard work in a pretty bow, and execute your wedding day flawlessly.

How far in advance can I book?

A venue coordinator, in a nutshell, is responsible for all things related to the functionality of the venue, such as setting out the specified number of tables and chairs, ensuring bathrooms are stocked, controlling lights and temperature, and ensuring all rules are being followed.

What's the difference
between you and a venue coordinator?

We believe that a beautiful, stunning wedding should be possible within any budget and we strive to make the most out of our couple's budgets. You'll find most planners require or suggest a minimum budget their client's to have, we do not. A budget is just a number, but it's how you plan to spend it that makes the difference. We'll be the first to tell you if your expectations are reasonable and we'll help guide you in the direction needed to stay within budget.

Do you work with a minimum budget?

No! We do have an list of amazing vendors we've worked with for many years and will gladly share with you upon booking. They are only suggestions, but highly recommended!

There are several factors that determine our pricing, such as travel distance, multiple venue locations, guest count, etc. Our Guided Planning Experience package starts at $2,200, but a final price will be given to you following a consultation. 

How much are your services?

No! It's not because we don't enjoy all the fun details that go into full wedding planning, like finding your dream dress or scheduling your cake tasting, because we do! We honestly get more enjoyment out of helping a couple maximize their budget, no matter the size and we believe they can better spend their dollars in other areas of their wedding. If you discover you need more assistance than what is covered in our package, reach out to us and we can always add more planning meetings to your package.
