what we’re doing to customize your event
You know how we feel by now. We HATE boring. Been there, done that (Said us NEVER because we don’t do boring!).
But sometimes, when clients have had an idea in their head and they didn’t want to budge, we did need to (doesn’t happen as often now since our clients come to us with trust based on our many years of experience and clients see what we do).
So what are a few examples of what we did this year in 2023 to add some edge, push the boundaries, and make our clients have the most spectacular events? Let’s go!

If you just got engaged and are wondering, “Now what?” keep reading.
You might be thinking, “Okay, time to plan!” And then you stop and say, “But what’s most important to do first?”

Sweet 16 vision
WE HAD ONE MONTH.
In one month, a venue was booked, linen was ordered, flowers designs were created, and so many other details were planned for this Sweet 16 to make Isabella’s dreams come true.
It started with a VISION.

how to find a good event planner
Tips from a professional on how to find a good event planner:
1) Don’t just google “event planners” but really look at those reviews. What are they SAYING? What are they NOT saying? Think about what’s important to YOU and see if these reviews are saying anything that is actually important to you, not just to them. Additionally, you want to review them in a way where you can tell if they’re really new and just having their friends write testimonials or if they are legit.

MOST ASKED WEDDING PLANNER QUESTIONS
There’s a lot of confusion when it comes to Wedding Planning. Why do you need one? What if the venue has a coordinator? (Answer: They work for the venue and won’t be managing everything and everyone to make sure your day goes smoothly, and they definitely won’t be helping with any planning details beforehand!)
Below are a few of the top Wedding Planner questions we receive
choosing your photography style
The photography style you choose for your big day will showcase your wedding or event in a very specific way, so it’s super important to review the many styles of event photography before deciding on the one for yours. There’s no “best way” or “right way,” as it has to be what YOU are looking for.
A WEDDING FULL OF LAUGHTER and joy

should you work with a planner?
You deserve to be able to ENJOY the days leading up to your big event. You deserve to live your life and have an expert spend the time planning the best day ever for you.
You deserve that.
So let's talk about what you need to know about working with a Planner to determine if it's the best next step for YOU
The escort card board with a true purpose
This event was all about giving back to make sure the very special couple, surrounded by their friends and family, so when creating a vision for the day, I wanted to make sure it felt super personal. In collaboration with Wish Upon A Wedding, the special couple was able to have 50 guests for their vow renewal ceremony and reception. It was important that we had brights and lots of positivity around, so after the color scheme was created, I reached out to each vendor, who were all gracious enough to donate their services / products as well.
Because it was an intimate wedding event, I wanted to do more than just escort cards or the popular escort card board with names on it. IT HAD TO BE SPECIAL, for the couple AND for the guests…something MEMORABLE.
