We work long, late hours, but we love what we do and the people we do it for.
Your Musa planning team will:
💎Finish steaming your outfits so you don’t have to
💎Capture all of the #bts throughout the wedding day so you can relive those moments the day after
💎Do what it needs to be done to achieve the look and the plans we have designed (like on this last video where I’m cutting a pipe at the local Home Depot’s parking lot because I couldn’t fly with that to our destination)
We’ve gotcha 😉

Intimate farewell brunch 💍✨ Beyond just delicious bites, it’s a chance to extend the celebration, reconnect with loved ones, and savor the last moments of our destination wedding bliss.
It will allow you and your loved ones to reconnect, reflect, relax and create an everlasting impression.
For R&J’s brunch, we sourced local pastries, meats and cheeses with farmer’s market’s fruits and repurposed some of the centerpieces from the night before. it was the perfect ending to the most magical weekend… ever! 🍊

What is the difference between a day-of coordinator & a full service wedding planner?
Another clip from the Q&A portion at the @nace_philly interactive wedding a couple months ago answering the question.
When I say I dont believe in a “day of coordinator” its because you can never truly just be there on the day of and manage all of thw details flawlessly. It’s really a question of wedding management.
And as any project manager would, you need to touch base, check in several times with your team to make sure everyone is on the same page, that the timeline is in order, all questions are answered & everyone is prepared ahead of the big day.
This is a months/weeks long process, not just one day. So while its commonly discussed as a “day of coordinator” I prefer to think about it as wedding management, which is a service I offer to couples!
A full service wedding planner can do all of the above, as well as help you early on to work on the budget, choosing the right event partners from venue to lighting to transportation and stationary.
We help you bring your vision to life and work with you to create a concept that feels true to you & that all will enjoy on your wedding.
If you have any other questions, leave them in the comments!

I love the idea of incorporating fun trends and new ideas into wedding design. And there is definitely a way of incorporating fresh concepts while keeping it elegant + not over doing it.
Keeping the same playful energy, some vintage inspired details, and tying in everything in the right color palette is enough to get the right ✨vibe✨
I would LOVE to see more of this in 2024 — what do you think of this look?

For the last @nace_philly event I helped plan an interactive ~wedding~ and answered some fun questions. This one in particular is hard because it really does depend on who you ask and what you’re asking for!
Personally, we our services include:
• 1 hour consultations
• ivory collection: wedding day management
• silver collection: design + wedding day management
• wedding planning & design
• full weekend collection: includes all of the above plus a few added features — the package quote is based on a percentage of the overall budget or a minimum fee
• destination weddings: you can apply any of our services to any destination + a custom quote will be created based on your needs & location ☀️
The ivory collection starts at $3,150 and while I know this answer isn’t a one size fits all for everyone it’s what works for us!
What other wedding planning questions should I answer next? 👰♀️

Just casually recording content and talking to myself 😂 did not expect the response on our last video for Trisha & Brett. (It semi-blew up on TikTok) so if you haven’t seen it go check it out! But if this is also the ceremony of YOUR dreams, reach out to us by DM / email 🤍
we’ll travel anywhere in the world for our couples, but we also offer 1:1 coaching calls. For 2 hours, youll chat with me - Andi, owner + lead planner, where you can choose a topic to discuss (like help set-up a realistic Wedding Budget or help you set-up your Planning Tasks to keep you organized and have a game plan to move forward.

HOW SOON AFTER GETTING ENGAGED OR DECIDING TO PLAN A WEDDING SHOULD YOU HIRE A WEDDING PLANNER?
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
We did a Q&A at our interactive @nace_philly and had so much fun answering the crowdsourced questions.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
We are 100% believers in hiring a planner as soon as possible! Not only does it help to keep the planning process smooth and stress-free, but it prevents the need to redo things down the road.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
We’ve said it before, but if you’ve never planned a wedding before, how do you know where to start? Its ok to ask for help!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
We can hold your hand throughout the planning journey and help guide you to make decisions and suggest venues, vendors, and where you can save or splurge.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
If you have any other questions drop them in the comments or send us a DM! ♥️

Three minutes from Cinema Cake of this absolutely gorgeous wedding!!! We worked as the day-of coordinators with Liza & Colin; and while most people think day-of coordinators are the same as a “venue coordinator” or the “wedding planner that comes with the venue” I can assure you, they are very different!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
The main difference is a venue coordinator works for and represents the interests of the venue, and we work for YOU. 🤍
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
We wrote a WHOLE blog post about it that I’ll link to in our stories but this felt like such a great moment to remind you about the differences as we get into early 2024 planning!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
If you want more info on how we can help coordinate your big day or what that really means, always feel free to leave a comment or DM :)

7 mistakes I see couples making when they first reach out or when we’ve already started working together 👇
1. Trying to please everyone
2. Thinking that you don’t need a wedding planner
3. You don’t set a realistic budget
4. Trying to DIY as many things as possible to “save money”
5. Not feeding your wedding vendors on the wedding day
6. Not thinking that details are important
7. You don’t have a solid rain plan
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
We’ve said all of this before, but how could you know if you’ve never planned a wedding before! We’ve shared some more details on the blog, but the bottom line is that having help from a pro is one of the best ways to make sure ALL your bases are covered. The sooner we start working together the better! If you’re wondering if I can help, shoot me a DM 🤍
