So… You’re Engaged. Now What?

You’ve got the ring, the screenshots, maybe even a venue in mind.
Feels like you’re off to the races… but hold.

Our story

1. You’re engaged. Yahoo.
This is the fun part. Sit in it for a second.

2. You think you’ve found your venue.
Amazing. Before you lock it in—quick gut check.

Does your venue require a planner?
Do they offer “in-house” coordination?

Just know—those planners are often there to represent the venue.
What you want is someone who represents you.

3. Do a little vetting.
This is a relationship. You want to actually jive.

Look at their work. Their tone. How they show up.
Trust your gut here—it matters.

4. Let’s meet.
A consult should feel easy. Conversational. No pressure.

Think: about an hour to see if we’re copacetic
and aligned on what you’re dreaming up.

(And yes, it should be free.)

5. Packages + vision.
What does support look like for you?

Hands-on? More guidance than takeover?
We’ll map that out together so it fits your life—not the other way around.

6. Proposal → review → sign.
You’ll get a clear breakdown. You take a look, ask questions,
and when you’re ready—sign + retainer.

“The good stuff.
Tastings. Venue walks. Coffee dates.
Maybe a little wine along the way. Planning your wedding should feel like this.”

7. Boom. You’re booked.
Your date is secured. You’ve got a planner in your corner.

8. Now we get into it.
Checklists. Vendor recs. Real direction.

We’ll make introductions, set up meetings (usually monthly-ish),
and start chipping away—together.

9. The good stuff.
Tastings. Venue walks. Coffee dates.
Maybe a little wine along the way.

Planning your wedding should feel like this.

10. We keep it moving.
Flexible communication, real support, and a plan that works.

We’ll get dates on the calendar and keep things rolling—without the overwhelm.
