About
Your  event should be an expression of who you are.

I make it a priority to get to know my clients and will capture your unique style that will create a wedding day that you, as well as your friends and family, will always remember. It doesn’t matter what your style is— romantic, elegant, sophisticated, chic, casual or somewhere in between, together, we will create a wedding that radiates you.

From simply getting you started to full-service planning I believe that every event should be unique and should have your taste and personality infused into every aspect of it. Call or e-mail to schedule an appointment! 

I also offer web cam consultations via Skype if you are not able to meet in person.

 Fran is such a delight to work with. She is creative and fun. I recently worked a wedding with her, she thought of every possible senario and really took care of the bride and her guests. I highly recommend her.

Tips and Advice

Staying organized when planning your wedding is a must!

There are so many different ways now to do this. You can:

1. Download all sorts of soft ware. There are so many companies offering planning software. You can even pick it up at Target and Walmart. I even noticed today that Microsoft has a wedding planning software you can download for free if you have office 7 or up. I myself use elm softwares iDo, which comes in bride version as well as planner.

2. Get one of the pretty portable wedding planning books that are out. They come with pockets and charts and graphs and all sorts of good information is on easy portable package! And you can get them for $15.00 and up.

3. Register for theknot or theweddingchanel. Those sites have all sorts of tracking software you can get to from any computer. It also has percentage breakouts for different budgets so you can see where you need to be.

4. And the most low tech of all (and one I use in conjunction with my software for every bride) is a simple 3 ring binder with dividers, plastic sleeves for storing pictures and ideas and all your information in excel and word. That way you always have all information at your finger tips (contacts, contracts, great aunt Bettys address!)

Whichever way to go is a personal choice for as low or high tech as you are. Just make sure you use one. Planning a wedding is stressful enough!
