Jessica & Daniel's private property lakeside wedding was perfect for the September weather. Jessica & Daniel booked my Event Management package and for them it was the perfect fit. Resources, guidance and on-site styling really allowed this couple to enjoy their wedding day from beginning to end!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
'Both my husband and I are procrastinators, so having check-ins with Sonia every few months really kept us accountable with making sure everything was booked and ready to go. I loved the resources she provided and used them often.'

Wedding Planner vs. Venue Coordinator
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Does this sound familiar?
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
"My venue has an in-house coordinator, I don't need a wedding planner or a day-of coordinator"
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
In-house coordinators are a great asset to any vendor team, I love working with venue coordinators to execute a client's wedding day but let's remember they work for the venue.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
A venue coordinator will support with floorpans, answer venue related questions, support with food and beverage if on-site catering is applicable and act as the point of contact for the venue.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
A wedding planner will support you and the overall direction of your wedding, provide vendor recommendations in all areas, answer all wedding related questions and manages the timeline.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
It's important to know the difference to decide if having both a venue coordinator and a wedding planner is right for you!

It's engagement season, which means it's inquiry season for many vendors. You may think that the 'off season' is for rest and the opportunity to drum-up new inspiration, for the most part you would be right, however there is SO much behind the scene work happening and a large part of that has to do with many new couples reaching out to all kinds of wedding pros to book us for their 2024/2025 wedding!!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
With all that to say, don't wait to book your top pick of vendors and congratulations on your engagement!!

Is the timeline to your wedding getting shorter? 🗓️
Wedding prep tip: Organize a document that categorizes each area of your wedding including the ceremony, cocktail hour space and reception, use this to create a list of what decor & elements will be used in each space and if anything will be repurposed throughout the day. This process will also help you remember anything that may have slipped your mind.
BONUS: Use the same list to pack any DIY or personal items you are leaving for a vendor to set-out for you.
