Confetti & Bustle

06/17/2024

Hey new friends! 👋🏼

I've had a bunch of vendors reach out recently & wanted to take a moment to welcome you! So hello, I'm Manda owner of Confetti & Bustle!

Here's some things to know about me:
⏳I have a combined 7 years of experience in events, 3 in weddings and just passed 1 year as a business owner
📄 My previous jobs included freelance artist, paint & sip art instructor, home improvement retail store merchandiser, & venue coordinator. In the movie "27 Dresses" when she brags about caulking a fountain ahead of a wedding, I felt ✨seen✨
💫 Happily, I get to say I have as many positive reviews from fellow vendors as I do clients. The amazing teams I get to work with on events that support my role are absolute rockstars who I couldn't shine without! From venues to DJs & rental delivery people, I appreciate all you do!
🫶🏼 I deeply believe in kindness & creating spaces for everyone to succeed. Just as my couples deserve the best planner/coord, I think us vendors deserve the best community so I strive to foster an environment that's friendly & helpful. Starting a business is really hard, having support in your happily ever hustling should not be! 👏🏼

COMMENT BELOW IF:

Flower Rentals are Here! 🌺

Shout out to for allowing this East Coast planner make magic for a West Coast couple! The SoCal inspired bougainvilleas didn't have to cross the country to the City of Brotherly Love because the soon-to-be Mr. & Mrs. had them shipped right to my door, making decor planning even from 2,800 miles away a breeze! 📦

We're using Gemma & Eloise for the arch & tables this weekend!

If you're interested in renting flowers & even some amazing decor from Something Borrowed Blooms, make sure to check my link in the bio to order yours today!

Congrats to The Andersons!

& Ben's intimate wedding was filled with touching moments including their little ones walking down the aisle with them & sharing dances among their parents & stepparents! Check out the moms peeking over at First Look with dads!

Thank you to this beautiful family for inviting me into your special day!

Thank you for so much love & patience during this last week! Confetti & Bustle's biggest fan, my dad, is kicking cancer's butt!

That did mean taking a step back from social media to provide care but behind the scenes included some final planning and coordination meetings, a rehearsal & venue visits!

Tomorrow is another wedding day but before that are 2️⃣ very special posts coming soon!!! Come back for more, you won't want to miss out on this holiday weekend's happenings!!!

Fully Booked for Coordination in Summer ☀️ & Fall 🍂 '24!

Apologies for holiday music in May but I couldn't help myself, my Month of Coordination package is closed through October (...so what a bright time, it's the right time)!

Still interested in mini services, planning or 2025? There's plenty of availability so rock the night away & reach out!

Music puns aside, I'm serious about booking out my year! If you're hoping for a November or December wedding, ask about my winter discount! ❄️

New favorite thing to do: check out spaces as the weather changes! ❄️☔️🌷☀️

You may remember a few months ago I shared a rainy Old City venue. Well today I was snapping some pics in the area of fresh blooms for an out of state couple so they can see the area coming to life!

04/14/2024

One pretty sweet birthday! 🍰

Thank you a bazillion times to yesterday's family , Fromm & Millie for making sure today felt special!

And happy birthday to Jenna, Robb, Allison & the bride's aunt as well! We had a full I Do birthday crew! 🥳♈️

Couldn't even wait to post! What an insanely great start to the season!!!

04/12/2024

First look & aisle for this weekend!

I already know I'm gonna be teary eyed over this one!!!

Maybe I'm biased but rockstar mom bride crushed it with the DIYs & personal details! The venue is already a sweet gem and it is going to feel so romantic & fun!!!

2017

Yep, that's right. It's been 7 years since our last vacation as a couple. We were celebrating 10 years & finally moving in together then adopted our dog the next day after coming back to our home!

Vacation Manda is a whole other human. She is spontaneous, greets the morning sunshine joyfully, says yes to the unknown, and loves getting out in the fresh air! (I know my friends are reading this like no way...) She flies in prop planes immediately after seeing the Wright Brothers' flight path, she sees a mountain range and zip lines over it, she throws her feet into a freezing body of water every time, she orders the most expensive thing on the menu! The world becomes so small and I decide to see it all while I can! And I get to share that with my favorite person again!

So all of this is to say, I definitely want to remind you again that weddings are just a tiny part of this big happy journey. We're hopping in a truck like we're 25 again going somewhere totally random in hunt of waterfalls & a once in a lifetime view. What an amazing, magical thing is it to continue adding another little bit of adventure...

To happily ever onwards! 🗺️

The best wedding decor is 🆓!

These new matte gold quad of arches are free to use for Confetti & Bustle couples! Not a modern fan? I also have a 7' white arch!

My favorite part about these kinds of arches is actually *not* following the instructions: You can hack the connections to make custom sizes and new shapes. Those lovely illusion arches can be made without the peak or middle section attached!

03/12/2024

Don't forget to follow over on Instagram! I share there first and even share fun polls, reels, & featured vendors!!!
(Today is Oscar Fashion Day!)

Event Planning & Coordination in the Greater Philadelphia Area

02/19/2024

is officially 1!!!!!

I seriously keep grabbing my face and shaking my head in disbelief that it's already been 1 YEAR since I launched Confetti & Bustle!

This dream I had exploded in a way even experts thought there's no way! Within the first 21 weeks of opening, there were 22 couples signed on from decor coordination to full planning! From Feburary to December, I excitedly took part in 12 weddings! And we already have another 12 this year and 1 ready for 2025!

Thank you to everyone who believed in me & to these amazing people who trust me to stand there dress train in hand ready for the start of your own amazing stories!

Let's keep writing happily ever afters, we're here to stay!

Rainy Venue Walkthrough Day!

Loving this historical Philly museum that is going to host the sweetest microwedding ceremony in June!

Also crossing off a massive bucket list item: I spent my early childhood in this neighborhood, the school & community center I went to are just around the corner. As a little girl, I dreamed of a wedding in this area! Pinching myself that the dream came true but as a planner!!! 🥹💗

Sneak peak of a venue tour for 2024! ❄️

Will be back for TWO weddings here next year!!!
