Venue: Prospect House Let’s be real—there are a ton of wedding planners out there. But what makes us different? It comes down to three core things: experience, personality, and our obsession with over-delivering.
But really, it’s even deeper than that. We will never set our clients up to fail. Ever. We dive into planning with you no matter what, because—let’s be honest—you don’t know what you don’t know, and you shouldn’t. That’s why you hire us. We’ve got you covered, every step of the way.
How It Started vs. How It’s Going
When I started in the venue world in 2015, wedding planners weren’t really a thing unless you were a celebrity or a really big deal. Coordination was just starting to trend, and as a catering manager and venue director, I was deeply involved in making wedding days happen through all vendor details.
What I noticed? By the time couples got to their final meetings—the fun custom parts, where we talk linens, menus, and floor plans—they were exhausted. Instead of excitement, I heard:
“We just want this to be over.”
UM, EXCUSE ME?! That is so freaking sad. Weddings should be joyful, not a giant stress storm. From that moment on, I made it my mission to make sure no couple ever felt like that on my watch.
Sure, I spent years learning everything—how to run and build venues, how to run a catering team, lighting tricks for flawless photos and makeup arists, the right linen sizes for every table, how to order the perfect amount of booze (important), the ins and outs of rentals, and how to not be that planner who just helps themselves to venue storage. I’ve done dishes, bussed tables, bartended, assisted florists, you name it—I’ve seen it all. I truly believe my experience and passed down knowledge in these categories sets us apart.
But more importantly? I learned just how crucial teamwork is. Every vendor has their own process, their own expertise, and rather than assuming—we collaborate. A well-oiled vendor team = a seamless, stress-free wedding for you.
Yes, as planners, we're here to run the show and make the calls, but we’re not here to bark orders or micromanage. We’re problem solvers, critical thinkers, and true team players. A wedding works best when every vendor is empowered to do what they do best, and that’s exactly what we strive for.
That’s why we believe in building a kickass team. You should love your vendors, trust them, and actually want to talk to them. Because when the team is thriving, your wedding day is nothing short of magic.
Our Gift to You: Over-Delivering (Not Nickel-and-Diming)
Most businesses thank you with a fancy client gift. Don’t get me wrong—we love spoiling our couples. But our biggest “thank you” gift? We over-deliver.
Yes, we run a business. Our pricing reflects the work we do. We can’t drive all over town for endless meetings just because (but we would if we weren’t busy bees). But we’re also not here to nickel-and-dime you.
If our one-hour meeting runs long? Who cares! Let’s yap. Let’s get to know each other. This isn’t a law office where the clock is ticking and you’re being billed by the minute. You will never feel alone in this process. We’re in the trenches with you, and by the end of this, we’re basically besties (unless you really don’t like us—but let’s be real, if you booked us, you already like us).
The Right Planner for YOU (Because Personality Matters!)
Not all planners are the same, and that’s a good thing. We don’t just throw you at whoever’s available—we personality-match you with the right planner.
✨ Need someone who’s design-heavy and all about aesthetics? You’re not getting our Type-A accountant-brain girls.
✨ Need logistics, timelines, and a meticulous game plan? We’ve got the perfect fit for that, too.
And here’s the deal: while my team is incredible (truly, I trust them with my whole heart), I refuse to just hand everything off. Not because I don’t trust them, but because I want to be involved.
You didn’t book me just to be passed along to someone else. I check in. I stay in the loop. I’m always there if I need to step in, but I also know when to be a fly on the wall. It’s hands-on, but in a guiding, supportive way—not micromanaging.
So, Why Us?
Because we’re not just wedding planners. We’re your hype squad, problem-solvers, reality-checkers, and new besties. We make sure you feel supported, we match you with the perfect planner, and we never, ever let you walk this journey alone.
So if you’re ready for a wedding planning experience that feels fun, stress-free, and maybe even a little boujee (without the BS), let’s do this.
We’re ready- and if you are still here, you must be too!
Cheers to planning the best day of your life—without the burnout.
