Why Hire a Wedding Planner?
I have heard of brides getting engaged and spending endless hours planning but, they don’t hire a wedding planner or coordinator to execute those plans because of price. Then, on their wedding day or at rehearsal they are scrambling to get everything accomplished. All of their out of town guest and wedding party are having to pitch in and spending a late night preparing for the wedding instead of having fun. That is where my talents as a wedding professional are clutch. I have gathered all the information from the bride prior to the wedding. I have checklist, timelines, and questionnaires to make sure a plan is in place for how everything will be accomplished. The couples that I work for often are amazed that they weren’t rushing around on their wedding day.
I had a bride last week that used my largest planning package. On the day before her wedding, she went and had a fun girls afternoon, then went to a fancy restaurant with her fiancé and wedding party, and went to bed at decent hour. While she was out making memories, I was loading 3 cars full of décor, tablecloths, steaming bridesmaid dress, and much more. Knowing that my bride and groom trusted me and that they weren’t stressing made me long for every bride and groom to experience that level of wedding planning enjoyment. A wedding is a big day without a lot of spinning plates. Allow be to execute the talents and strengths that I have as a certified wedding and event planner for your wedding day.

Month Out Coordination
I usually begin helping a couple prepare a month before the wedding and function as the point person on the wedding day. I will confirm vendor contracts and create a day-of timeline, as well as make sure things like payments and guest counts are in order, but won't be involved in the earlier planning phases or keeping track of your budget. Part of my job is to coordinate everything involved on the day of the event, from load-in and load-out to ensuring that everyone is on schedule.

Beach wedding? Michelle knew exactly what to do. With only a few weeks notice, she delivered the perfect theme, complete with romantic arbor and beach decorations - all overlooking the Atlantic Ocean in North Myrtle Beach, SC. Last minute weather conditions caused a change from outdoor to indoor location. Not a problem - Michelle made sure the seating was perfect for everyone. Organized every detail with precision! One happy “Beach Bride” and groom.
