Frequently Asked Questions

What's the difference between a Coordinator and a Planner?
A Coordinator is there on the day of to execute the plan, making sure everything runs smoothly and according to your vision. They check in with vendors as they arrive, dealing with any issues that arise on the day-of, cue you down the aisle, and set up and tear down your decor.
A Planner is with you throughout the entire process of envisioning your day, all before the wedding happens. They are visionaries that design and help brainstorm creative ways to express your ideas of how you want your wedding day to look and feel. They are there on the day to execute your vision, and know your wedding day intimately - because they helped you dream it up!
-
Is there a travel fee, and how is it calculated?
Travel costs are not included in the package prices and are calculated on a case by case basis. For weddings taking place beyond 50 miles from Syracuse, NY, a gas mileage fee will incur, along with a 2 night accommodation fee (for your rehearsal and wedding day).
-
Will I still have a say in things if I book you to plan my wedding?
Absolutely! It is your wedding after all. We work with you to determine how involved you want to be in the process and create a plan moving forward that works for both of us.
-
How long have you been doing this for, and how did you get into weddings?
I started getting involved in weddings back in 2016. I loved being creative, so I started a calligraphy and lettering business for wedding signage. But shortly after opening that business, I knew I wanted to be more involved in weddings. In 2021, I reached out to a local venue I had admired to be a stylist, and by the end of the summer I was their lead Coordinator. In 2022, I decided it was time to make it my own. Owning this business and being your Wedding Planner has truly been the greatest honor and best decision! Now, I've done nearly 100 weddings and I'm excited to continue to grow through each wedding season.
-
Do you work with couples who don't live in NY but are getting married in NY?
Yes! We've worked with out of state couples before. In those cases, the couples usually can't meet with vendors, do venue walkthroughs, etc. and our team steps in to give you ease of mind, knowing our team is local and here for you through the planning process.
-
Is it just you on wedding days, or is there a team?
This is determined on a case by case basis. During the planning process, we talk through how involved your decor is and what set-up team your venue already provides. Based off of this, I will choose to add on a stylist (or multiple) or execute the wedding myself. I never want you to pay for a service that’s not needed, so this is an added fee that is only charged if needed and is determined 1 month to your wedding.
