What This Looks Like

A partner who brings it into focus.

The Guided Experience is for the couple who has already started. You may have the venue, a few vendors, a Pinterest board with a hundred saves. What you want is someone to give it shape, catch what you have missed, and carry the weight of the decisions with you.

You book the vendors. We give you the direction, the recommendations, and the second set of expert eyes on every selection, order, and contract, so you can choose with confidence.

And when the day comes, we run it. The Guided Experience includes the full Wedding Day Experience, so the people who guided your planning are the people in your corner on the day itself.

The Months Together

How the partnership works.

We meet you where you are and stay close from there, with regular check-ins all the way to the day.

Phase One
From Booking

Direction and priorities.

We start by understanding what you have already decided and what is still open. We give you direction on the overall flow, the priorities, and the decisions that matter most, plus access to the budget sheet and the full planning suite.

What gets done
Planning direction, budget sheet, planning suite, monthly check-ins
Phase Two
The Lead-Up

Design and review.

We shape the design with you through a design board and layout, and review every vendor selection, order, and rental quantity. Monthly Zoom check-ins keep everything moving without overwhelming you.

What gets done
Design board, layout, vendor review, design and timeline meetings
Phase Three
Wedding Day

We run it.

Everything in the Wedding Day Experience. We confirm the details, choreograph the vendors, and execute the day, so you and your family get to be fully present.

The Things Most Planners Skip

The details that actually matter.

Some of these never make it onto a wedding planner website. They are the operational details we handle quietly, the difference between a wedding that runs and a wedding that ran.

Every dietary restriction, every guest, mapped to the table they will be sitting at. The catering team gets one document that shows exactly which plate goes where, before service begins.

If your videographer is using a drone, the FAA Part 107 license and any local airspace authorizations need to be in place. We handle this with the videographer so it is never a day-of surprise.

Most luxury venues require Certificates of Insurance from every vendor on site. We collect them, verify the coverage matches the venue requirements, and chase the vendors who have not sent them in.

The photo team has been on their feet for nine hours. The band has not eaten since 4 PM. We coordinate with the caterer so every vendor is fed at the right time, because tired, hungry vendors do not make beautiful weddings.

The florist arrives at 10. The rental company at 11. The band needs the cake out of the way. Choreographing fifteen vendor arrivals without anyone tripping over each other is its own quiet art.

Every venue has its own rules: when load-in can start, when teardown must end, where rentals can be staged. We translate those into vendor-specific timelines so nothing gets missed.

Sewing kit, stain remover, double-sided tape, safety pins, blister bandages, mints, hairspray, painkillers, snacks. The things you will never need, and will be deeply grateful for if you do.

Marriage license. Vows printed in case of phone failure. Comfortable shoes for the reception. The thank-you cards for parents. The list every couple wishes someone had handed them at month nine.

Common Questions

About the Guided Experience.

How is this different from full-service planning?

With the Guided Experience, you book your own vendors and we give you the direction, recommendations, and review to do it confidently. With the Signature Experience, we do the sourcing and booking for you. Both include the full wedding-day team.

What is the investment for the Guided Experience?

It is priced to your wedding, and we share exact pricing during the inquiry conversation. Every wedding is different, so there is no templated rate.

When should we book the Guided Experience?

Most couples come to us 6 to 12 months out, often once they have the venue and want a partner for everything after. Earlier is always welcome.

Is day-of coordination really included?

Yes. The Guided Experience includes the entire Wedding Day Experience. You will not need to hire a separate coordinator.
