we believe that . . . 

  • The more that we get to know your story, the better that we can help tell your story on your wedding day
  • Coffee is a food group
  • Not every client has the same "preferred vendors" 
  • A planner who wears heels to your wedding is not working hard enough

  • Experience in this industry is the most valuable attribute of a planner
  • Grandparents at weddings are always VIPs
  • A smile and calm demeanor is the most important thing that we can bring on the day of the wedding
