Frequently Asked Questions

1st, we have a massive collection of pricing details for all local vendors; Which means florists, caterers, Entertainers, DJs, etc… and will navigate all options to present you with the best choice for your budget. Securing these vendors one by one without having the full picture in mind often leads to $10K in unplanned expenses.
2nd, is with our pricing. We focus on what you absolutely need for each scenario to keep costs down. While many planners charge $8K, $15K or $20K, our planning packages start around $3,000. And for Wedding Coordination, many insured coordinators charge $2,500+ while our coordination starts at $1000. Instant savings!
And 3rd, we stay on top of vendor price adjustments so nothing changes from the time contracts are signed.

-Support simple napkin folds : knot, waterfall
-Set up remembrance tables: place candles + photo frames
-And place the following: Individualized menus, Pre-made Seating charts, small guest favors, and dance party items -
*Weddings that request in depth decoration support >> we bring in a 2nd coordinator for the day
*Travel more than 30 mins from our hub cities >> $100. If we exceed a 1hr drive, a hotel stay is required as it's too dangerous at night for your coordinator after a 10hr shift on their feet.
*Events with more than 6 vendors on site for the event ( ex: there are 5 different food trucks, a live tattoo artist, a photo booth, samba dancers, a petting zoo,... basically a LOT going on) >> we bring in an additional coordinator
*Holidays. Increased rates apply
*Venues with difficult terrain or MASSIVE properties that will require more staff to provide the high quality of support we’re known for.
