Services
Full Planning & Design
Our comprehensive wedding planning service covers every detail from initial concept to final execution. With two planners assigned to each event, we handle vendor selection, budget management, timeline creation, and day-of coordination. Couples receive unlimited consultations and benefit from our extensive industry connections to create cohesive, personalized celebrations that reflect their unique style and vision.
Partial Planning
Ideal for couples who want professional guidance while maintaining control over their wedding planning. This service includes vendor team finalization, timeline development, and logistics management during the final six months leading to the event. Our planners provide expert advice while allowing couples to handle earlier planning stages themselves.
Final Wedding Management
Perfect for couples who have completed most planning but need expert execution. Our team takes over two months before the wedding to coordinate vendor details, create final timelines, and manage all day-of logistics. This service ensures seamless execution while allowing couples to enjoy their celebration without stress.
Floral Design
Custom floral arrangements tailored to each wedding's theme and aesthetic. Our designers create cohesive floral elements including bouquets, centerpieces, and ceremony installations that complement the overall event design. Services include consultation, design development, and professional execution for both planning clients and standalone floral orders.
Destination Weddings
Specialized planning services for weddings outside the Seattle area. Our team coordinates all logistical aspects including local vendor selection, travel arrangements, and cultural considerations. With experience in international weddings across multiple continents, we ensure smooth execution regardless of location while maintaining our signature attention to detail.

Questions
Can you accommodate custom wedding planning packages?
Yes, we create custom packages for couples needing flexibility beyond our standard offerings. Our planners work with each couple to develop tailored solutions that match their specific needs and budget.
What's the difference between venue coordinators and your planners?
Venue coordinators represent the venue's interests while our planners advocate exclusively for clients. We manage all vendor communications, create detailed timelines, and provide full-day coordination that extends beyond venue staff responsibilities.
Do you offer day-of coordination only?
We require at least six months of preparation for effective day-of execution. Our Final Wedding Management package includes two pre-event meetings and venue walkthroughs to ensure seamless coordination on your wedding day.
How many weddings do you plan annually?
Our team handles 30-40 weddings annually with each planner taking only one event per weekend. This ensures dedicated attention to every couple while maintaining quality across all events.
Do you work with international couples?
Yes, we specialize in destination weddings globally. Our planners coordinate all logistical aspects remotely through digital tools and maintain local vendor networks in multiple countries to ensure smooth execution.
What payment methods do you accept?
We accept payments via PayPal, Venmo, Zelle, checks, money orders, and cashier's checks. Our standard payment plan requires 50% retainer at booking with remaining balance due one month before your wedding.
