To know that who I am to my core has never changed and that I can impart that onto my team is an incredible feeling.

At the end of the day, staying true to who I am and how I love to make people feel is what I can never compromise on.

Thank you, thank you, thank you. ✨

And yes, white garden folding chairs can look very sleek and luxe — in the RIGHT space. I said what I said.

“Have you worked at our venue before?” A question we’ve received a couple of times over the last little while and I wanted to address this. (Amanda, here!)

It’s quite impossible for any planning company to have worked at every single wedding and event venue on the planet so the short answer sometimes might be no, we haven’t.

If we haven’t worked at a specific venue, we’ve most likely attended an event as a guest at that venue, and if you’re a planner, you’re still scoping out the scene as if it was your event. 😂

Working across multiple cities, provinces, and countries involves partnering with a planner who understands the logistical landscape of space planning. Who has the ability to forecast capacity limitations, vendor production challenges, and of course, a keen eye for flagging guest experience details that could make or break your event.

My advice to couples is to partner with an event professional who has the confidence to ask the right questions from the get go no matter where the venue is located. It doesn’t matter what’s been done or not done before — if there’s a will, there’s a way and it’s up to us to find it and make it happen.

Three things we do when working at a venue for the first time:
1. We jump on a call with the lead sales or venue manager. Fostering strong vendor relationships is a must.
2. We visit the space without our couple first so we can go over all the logistical questions and not use our couple’s precious time during a site visit for the nitty gritty. Unless they want to know. ;)
3. We create 1-3 feasible and realistic floor plan options and preliminary production schedules so we have a plan B and C in case things shift or we need to factor in weather conditions.

Preparation is key and going the extra mile so we can comfortably walk the space with our couple as if we’ve planned hundreds of events at their chosen venue or venues of interest is extremely important.

Can you have your cake and eat it too? Why yes, yes you can.

The clients we work with have a very different understanding of what luxury is than the norm.

For them, it’s about valuing and protecting their time. The convenience of hiring a true professional and advisor to lead the planning, designing, and production of their wedding.

It’s about not having to worry whether or not what they’ve communicated is actually going to be executed. We hear you…the first time.

We love to give our couples the space to dream, change their minds, have choices, and express themselves freely.

Yes, you can enjoy the sweetness of a thoughtfully planned and curated event experience without any of the overwhelm. We LOVE that for you. ✨

PLANNING ADVICE SERIES:

It’s always so fun, as an engaged couple, to see photos of other people’s wedding days and get excited for what your day could be like! To you who are in that dreaming phase I say .. dream and dream big!

When it’s officially time to plan and put things into perspective - I lead with the big elephant in the room and that is always the overall spend.

I never want any of my couples to feel shocked at how much things cost because there are obvious costs related to planning an event that most people anticipate and then there are those hidden costs that we as industry professionals know about and need to educate our clients on.

Whether you want to and can invest $90k on your wedding or $250k on your wedding — there is a number that starts making you feel weak at the knees lol. That is the line we do not want to cross.

So, here are a few guiding questions I ask my couples to consider when they’re having that $ conversation together and with whoever will be contributing to the wedding:

1. What is the one thing you remember the most about a past wedding or event?

2. What are the top three areas of your wedding that are the most important to you AND have a financial implication? (ie. aesthetic, music, meal, being in good company)

3. What is the least important to you? As in “the stuff” you really couldn’t be bothered with.

As a planner, these are questions I can’t answer for my couples but the answers are what guide the next steps in our planning process.

Establishing your priorities is such an important step when planning any type of event and it’s what I continue to refer back to as I help you select your venue and curate your team of creative partners. ✨

Dream.
Prioritize.
Vision.
Plan.
Team.
Execute.

Slightly obsessed with candlelight and timeless floral designs … it’s giving chic, elegant, romantic. Sometimes less is more … way more. ✨

Our designs for this wedding season are out of this world beautiful and as I prep for our design mock-ups in the coming weeks and months, I’m excited to showcase our new design process and all the unique special touches that comes with having us spearhead designing the pretty of your celebration.

For you and your crew to be smiling and laughing like THIS .. you need need someone who is dedicated to managing all of the moving pieces of your celebration so you can actually enjoy every minute of your day.

So, what does that even mean? It means hiring a planner to be at the helm of your entire planning experience.

A planner who:
• Holds your vision, desires, and well-being in the highest regard.
• Protects your financial investment.
• Considers your wedding plans from every possible angle to avoid unnecessary stress and anticipate roadblocks.
• Can design a guest experience that is authentic to you and how you want to host your family and friends.
• Understands how to curate the right team of creatives to execute an extraordinary event and not just an ordinary one.
• Can and will produce a professionally managed event in a calm and respectful demeanor no matter what unforeseen circumstances arise.

If you’re looking for a planner for your wedding or event, we are accepting two more events for the 2024 season and would be more than happy to meet with you and discuss how we can best support and lead you through to the finish line.

If you’re hosting a celebration in 2025, our books are officially open! ✨

Rolling up in your something blue, anyone? ✨

A something blue doesn’t always have to be that traditional piece of jewelry, pair of shoes, or a neatly sewed in garment.

I love tradition but I also love to see couples pave their own way.

You can make traditional elements of a wedding work for you by incorporating things in your life that you love and cherish like this incredibly stylish couple did with the Bride’s blue Beetle. Talk about a show stopper!

Shoutout to this rustic chic Chuppah and what was one of my favourite vows of all time. These two truly mastered what “speak from the heart” truly means. We laughed, we cried, and it’s a moment I’ll never forget. Chapeau! ✨

Ahem! Amanda here — I am fully immersed in the world of weddings right now (just concluded an extraordinary five-day Indian wedding) but as the thick of the wedding season continues, I’m unbelievably grateful and excited for the couples reaching out for support with planning, designing, and producing their celebration of love. Since we only take on a select number of weddings every season, here’s a quick note to say that 2024 dates are closing soon & if you want to work with us, please do get in touch. 🥰

Note: there is a very special announcement coming this Fall and I’m crazy excited for it. 🙏

This is such a precious moment and it doesn’t matter how busy wedding mornings get, everything slows down for this.

Every year, after each wedding, I really make an intentional effort to soak it all in. The many months of planning, designing, researching, understanding my couple’s vision, and curating an event experience they are proud to host for their nearest and dearest.

As a planner, I only get one shot to get it right and it’s a privilege for me to work with people who not only challenge me (in the BEST of ways) but also inspire me to do and be more.

I can’t wait to share more BTS of this special day, our first wedding of the 2023 season, and a serious pinch me moment as I scroll through the breathtaking photos by . Dang … I am blessed.

It’s the styling of all the little details for me .. ✨

Our 2023 wedding season starts in a couple weeks which means we’re knee deep in final details meetings, production schedules, emergency kit prepping, and getting the core team ready to execute!

A little quieter on socials .. busy BTS! 😏👌
