Three Reasons We Love .

1. Imported From Italy: Yes, that is right. This Piaggio Ape is straight from Italy and is a three wheeled cousin to the popular Vespa scooter. Originally created in the late 1940's as a way for Italians to travel and move goods around the narrow streets, these trucks have been reimagined as old world bar carts bringing a sophisticated, fun element to weddings and events!

2. Options! With 4 available taps, including a nitro tap, this mobile bar can easily offer a wide variety of both alcoholic and non-alcoholic options to your guests to enjoy.

3. The Humidor! As the only mobile bar cart in the Buffalo area that offers a humidor, your guests are sure to be impressed with this classy lady!

Three Reasons We Love .scarlett.agency!

1. Impeccable Communication: What is worse than wondering what is the next step in the planning process? Or what is done and what still needs to be done? Communication is KEY when it comes to working with a wedding planner. We love that Kellyann and her team pride themselves on concierge level communication with their clients. They guarantee a same day response and once booked have a thorough meeting/communication plan.

2. Boutique Planning Agency: With a close-knit team and extensive experience in weddings, milestone celebrations, and corporate events, this boutique agency is equipped to handle any occasion with expertise and care.

3. Personalized Attention: At The Scarlett Agency, quality is prioritized over quantity. Who wants to be just a number on one of the most important days of your life? By limiting to only 8 weddings per year, Kellyann and her team are able to provide dedicated attention and a high level of service to each of their couples.

💍WEDDING FAQs
Q: What is the most expensive item in the wedding budget?
A: The Venue.

For most weddings, the venue accounts for 30%-50% of the total budget. This includes the cost of the space, catering, and sometimes decor. Booking an all-inclusive venue can simplify planning and help keep costs predictable​. Be sure when you are touring venues to ask what is included and if there are any discounts for booking on an off day (like Fridays) or off season (like January-April). This is a GREAT way to save some $$ in your wedding budget!!

Of all the decisions you make, to hire or not to hire a planner should be your first as they are your wedding planning guru's from the start. Below we summarize why you might want to make the investment into hiring a wedding planner to bring

1. Expertise and Industry Knowledge | Wedding planners bring years of experience and an insider’s perspective to the planning process. They’ve built relationships with trusted vendors, from florists to photographers, and can recommend those who align with your style and budget. This expertise saves you hours of research and helps you avoid costly mistakes.

2.Budget Management | Weddings can quickly become expensive, and managing a budget is one of the most challenging aspects of planning. A wedding planner helps you allocate your funds wisely, ensuring you get the most value for your money.

3. Time Saver | Planning a wedding is time-intensive, often requiring hundreds of hours of work. Between your job, family, and other responsibilities, it can be challenging to find the time to handle all the details.

4. Stress Reducer | Weddings can be stressful, especially when unexpected challenges arise. A wedding planner acts as your advocate, problem solver, and emotional support system throughout the planning process.

5. Personalization | Your wedding should be a reflection of your love story, and a wedding planner helps bring that vision to life. They take the time to understand your preferences, style, and priorities, ensuring every detail feels uniquely “you.”
