Getting Started
This basic package is for the couple just starting out who is unsure of where to even start or if they need a Planner. The “getting started” package will provide you with a basic timeline, help you find a location, and direct you to local, dependable vendors.
Month of Planning Packages
While in communication with the client throughout the planning process, this package really pops into gear about six weeks before the wedding.
Typically Month Of Planning will include the following:
- Choreography of the ceremony, including processional and recessional and any seating arrangements.
- Creation of a day-of timeline for ceremony and reception.
- Speaking with the officiant (minister) to discuss any special needs.
- Checking in with vendors the week of, or prior to, the wedding to make sure everyone is all on the same page.
- Attending and coordinating the rehearsal at a mutually-agreed upon time.
- Supervising vendor delivery, setup and pickup times.
- Drawing the reception area layout if necessary.
- Setting up any favors, toasting glasses, guest book, place cards, etc.
- Assisting with corsages, boutonnieres and bouquets.
- Be the contact person for vendors the day of the ceremony.
- Help insure that all portions of the event stay on timeline as closely as possible.
- Making sure gifts and special items are packed up and the site inspected for final clean up.
- Other responsibilities may include instructing ushers in the seating of the family and guests, and supervising the bride, groom and bridal party down the aisle.
Remove the burden that might typically be placed on family or friends and include a “Month-Of” Planner in your plans. That way everyone can enjoy your wedding day (including you!).
Mid-Range Planning Packages
My most popular package, Mid-Range or Partial Planning is for the couple who needs a slightly higher level of service. It includes everything from the basic “Month-of” package and adds assistance with catering and patisserie appointments. As an added bonus, any necessary rental items may be ordered without a handling fee. You also receive help with room blocks and transportation, recommending suitable vendors for all portions of the wedding and booking any other necessary vendor appointments so you make the most of your limited time.
Full-Service Coordination
Perfect for those planning a destination wedding, this package includes everything from both the basic and mid-range packages. Each Full-Service package is customized, so you can get help in the areas you need it, whether it be layout design, finding the best calligrapher, or that perfect one-of-a-kind rental item.
All planning rates depend upon date of wedding and number of guests. Please call for a complimentary consultation and quote.
