Venue Recommendations & Tours

$600

Need help finding the perfect “I do” venue? After discussing your vision, I will compile a list of (up to) 5 venues which I believe will best fit your event. I will ensure the venues I select are available for the date(s) you are looking for and provide a summary of everything that is 'included' alongside the price. Once that list is ready we will hop on a call to discuss and narrow that list down to 2 venues you'd like to go tour. I will schedule tours of the venues and then at the tour we will walk through all the possibilities! After touring the second venue, you will make a final decision and select your wedding venue.

Vendor Meetings (+ Management)

$300/per meeting

Want me to take the reins of your planning process and play a prominent role helping you hire and manage vendors? For the vendors of your choosing, I will: - Check availability - Schedule a meeting (or tasting/cosultation) with that vendor - Attend that scheduled meeting with you (or on your behalf) - Handle all contract updates on your behalf before and after you hire that vendor For example, to lock in your florist, I'd reach out to 1 of my preferred vendors to check their availability, schedule a meeting with that 1 vendor, attend the 1 meeting with you (or on your behalf) and then manage all communication / contract updates with your florist once you've signed a contract and paid that vendor. If you then wish to meet with a second florist (to receive a second quote) there would be no additional charge. Oftentimes, I find that meeting with a second florist is not always necessary and relies on how well the first meeting went. Should you find yourself wishing to visit with a third florist (to receive a third quote), you'd have the option to do that on your own (without me), or to add on another Vendor Meeting @ $300.

I will include rehearsal dinner specific items added to your Customized Checklist and monitor the planning of that event I will create a timeline and (any needed) diagrams specific to the rehearsal dinner I will provide (up to) 6 hours of onsite 'day-of' coordination which includes the following: - Supervision of vendor load in and set up - Execution of timeline - Set up of your personal/decor items

FAQs

Are your packages customizable?

Absolutely! I'd love to hear more about your event and discuss what you're looking for. Once I have an idea of the scope of the services you are envisioning I'll build a fully custom package for you.
Can I add services on at a later time?

Of course! Let me know when you need to call in some backup and I will be happy to assist.
Do you offer wedding design services?

I consider myself a design liaison—someone who can take the vision in your mind and guide you to the artists (vendors) who can bring that vision to life. My guidance is included in all of the above packages. If you’d like for me to attend a vendor meeting with you (or on your behalf) I offer Vendor Meetings (+ Management) at $300/per meeting. [More on that under Full Service (Add Ons) above.] I love getting to collaborate with my fellow vendors and voice my opinions on decor, color, aesthetics, the event layout, etc.
Do you offer budgeting services to help us remain on budget?

I offer complimentary budgeting advice during my first complimentary consultations with new potential clients. This is to ensure your budget is realistically synced with the vision you've described to me and based on trends I see in the industry. Should you choose to retain my services, I am not contractually tied to your budget. I am happy to provide a budget tracking spreadsheet for your use!
