I've already planned most of my wedding. Can you just help with the day itself?
Yes, our Wedding Day Coordination service is built exactly for this. We step in four to six weeks before your wedding to finalize timelines and manage all on-the-day logistics.
Do you help find vendors, or do we need to source them ourselves?
Our Vendor Scouting service connects you with trusted, vetted vendors matched to your style, budget and location, drawn from our relationships across Los Angeles, Cabo, Italy, France and Greece.
Can you help us find a venue?
Yes, our Venue Search service provides a curated shortlist of up to six venues based on your vision, guest count, budget and preferred date.
Do you only plan large weddings, or do you also do elopements?
We plan both. Our Elopement Planning service is designed for intimate, spontaneous celebrations with the same attention to detail as a full wedding.
What is destination wedding planning, and how does it work?
Our Destination Wedding Planning service manages every detail of a wedding held abroad, including local vendor coordination, venue selection and on-the-ground logistics, so the process feels as seamless as planning locally.
Do you offer design services only, without full planning?
Yes, our Design and Styling Concept service focuses specifically on color palette, florals, table settings and mood boards if you need styling support rather than full planning.
How far in advance should we book?
Booking timelines vary by service and season. We recommend reaching out as early as possible, especially for destination weddings, to secure vendors and venues in your preferred window.
Do you handle weddings of all sizes?
Yes, from intimate elopements to large-scale celebrations, we tailor our approach to the scale and vision of your event.
Can we combine services, like Venue Search and Vendor Scouting together?
Yes, our services are designed to complement each other, and many couples combine two or more depending on how much support they need.
Do you offer training for people who want to become wedding planners?
Yes, our Workshops for Aspiring Wedding Planners cover budget management, timeline creation, vendor selection and styling concepts for those looking to build a career in the industry.
