• Wedding Coordination: Also known as “day-of” or “month-of” coordination, this focuses on executing your wedding day. Coordinators step in closer to the event to finalize details, manage timelines, communicate with vendors, and handle day-of logistics so you can enjoy a stress-free celebration.

• Wedding Planning: This includes the full management of your wedding, from budgeting and vendor selection to timeline creation and logistics. Wedding planners guide you throughout the entire process, ensuring everything stays organized and on track.

• Wedding Design: Centered on aesthetics, wedding design focuses on creating a cohesive look and feel. Designers work on elements like color schemes, décor, floral arrangements, and layouts to bring your vision to life.

In summary: Coordination handles execution, planning focuses on logistics, and design shapes the aesthetics of your day.

Yes! Here’s how our payment structure works:

• A 30% non-refundable retainer is required to secure your date.

• 20% is due six months before your wedding.

• The remaining balance is due one month prior to your wedding.

While we understand weddings are a significant investment, we do not offer discounts. We are confident in the value our services provide and believe they are worth the investment. However, we’re happy to collaborate on a custom package tailored to your needs.

The process begins with a complimentary discovery call where we’ll get to know you, your partner, and your vision. We’ll walk you through our packages and help determine which is the best fit.

Once you’ve selected a service, we’ll send over a contract and invoice. Your date is officially reserved once the contract is signed and the 30% non-refundable retainer is paid—woohoo!

From there, we schedule a wedding planning kick-off call, provide access to our planning portal, and guide you through the first phase of our four-phase planning process.

We are based in Northern Santa Barbara County, the perfect midpoint between San Luis Obispo and Santa Barbara. We plan weddings throughout both counties and beyond!

For weddings outside of Santa Barbara or SLO Counties, travel and accommodation fees will apply.

Absolutely. We provide a Certificate of Insurance naming your venue as additionally insured. We also assist in collecting vendor certificates of insurance for your peace of mind.

I began my career in the Food & Beverage industry, working with catering companies in college. From there, I moved into hospitality, serving as a Hospitality Manager, Wedding & Event Sales Director, and General Manager for hotels and venues.

Planning and hosting events have always been in my blood. I grew up in a family that loved celebrating life’s moments, big and small. In 2014, I launched my first wedding planning business and have been crafting unforgettable celebrations ever since!

We offer three specialized packages:

• Comprehensive Coordination: High-touch support for couples who’ve handled much of the planning but need expert execution.

• Partial Planning + Design: For couples with a vision who want help managing logistics and creative design.

• Full Service Planning: A fully immersive, all-inclusive experience where we manage every detail of your wedding.

We have a curated list of trusted vendors that we recommend based on your style, budget, and preferences. However, we’re happy to collaborate with new vendors to ensure your vision comes to life.

We recommend booking as early as possible to secure your date. Most of our packages require booking at least 10-12 months in advance to ensure a smooth planning process.
