Manageable Approach

Typically called "Day-of Coordination", this package is for the client that has put the details in place on their own but needs help executing the plans.

You will receive access to our online planning platform, which includes our preferred vendor list. We start with a Budget call & then map out your timeline to set you on the right path for planning!

With monthly check-ins from your planner, you’re sure to stay on track!

Starting 90 days before the wedding, we take over the contracts & details to tie up the loose ends, so you can enjoy the final days celebrating.
