Q: Where are you located?
A: I am located outside of Pittsburgh in Butler county and am available to serve clients, not only local to western Pennsylvania, but around the globe. Planning a destination wedding? Lucky for you, I have a passport and a love of travel.
Q: what is the difference between you and a venue coordinator?
A: In a nutshell, from my experience, your venue coordinator may be responsible for overseeing the set-up and logistics as it relates directly to the venue (or not at all). An outside wedding planner will coordinate and manage ALL logistics and design details with your entire wedding team. A great wedding planner will not only make YOUR life easier and stress-free when it comes to planning your wedding but will also streamline and simplify the jobs of your entire vendor team (including your venue coordinator!)
Q: HOW MANY functions’ staff WILL BE THERE AT OUR WEDDING?
A: Most of our wedding packages come with one lead planner and one assistant, although additional assistants may be required at the discretion of the lead for an additional cost (this would be discussed and decided at your consultation).
Q: do i lose control after hiring a planner?
A: Definitely not! Your wedding is YOUR event, not mine. I am there to help and guide you through the planning process, not to take over. I will give you as much or as little help as you want through the process. Special touches that represent you as a couple are near and dear to me.
Q: DO YOU HAVE A LIST OF PREFERRED VENDORS TO USE?
A: I do not work from a set vendor list. I curate your vendor team based on the scope, aesthetic, and personality of your event. I do know and trust many great vendors who I will recommend based on these factors. I also offer my clients exclusive discounts with vendors like Minted and Generation Tux.
Q: HOW DO WE RESERVE OUR WEDDING DATE?
A: a 50% deposit and signed contract is required in order to get your wedding day on the calendar. two weeks prior to your wedding, the remainder of the balance is due.
