Day of Coordination: For all of our planning services, work begins from the moment of hire. Day-of-coordination services are no exception! We'll talk many times before your wedding day to go over all of the details you've planned. In addition to creating a detailed day-of-timeline and coordinating with each of your vendors, we'll be alongside you on your big day. When your wedding day arrives, we will supervise and manage all of the little details. From vendor arrival and set up, cueing you for your walk down the aisle, to the clean-up of the reception, we'll be making sure your day goes smoothly. Management of a ceremony rehearsal, if desired, is also included in this package.
Partial Planning Package: Our Partial Planning package allows you to choose select elements of your wedding that you would like for us to research, recommend, and manage so you can spend more time on everything else. Examples of elements you may have us work on are: venue selection, rentals, catering, design, florals, entertainment, transportation, dessert buffets, photographer selection, hair and makeup selection, or the rehearsal dinner. We talk with you about what you're looking for from these vendors, your budget and style. We then set up a custom online, private wedding planning board. From there, we find you the perfect vendors to make your wedding exactly what you want it to be. This package also includes everything in the "Day of" Coordination package.
Full Planning & Design Package:With our Full Planning package, no detail or task is beyond our scope of services. We work with you from conception to execution to create the wedding you want. We start by talking with you about what you want for your big day, from budget to vendors, venue to getaway car, we figure out what personal details and meaningful moments you want to add to your wedding and we make that happen. Our Full Planning package includes use of a custom, online, private wedding planning board and a private visual planning board, plus everything in the "Day of" Coordination Package.
Wedding Design, without planning: Designed for the couple who want a fully realized and comprehensive wedding day design custom created for their day. During our design consultation, we'll learn more about your style (as individiduals and as a couple) to ultimately provide you with a full design brief detailing a unique custom color pallette, floral and decor concepts, signage suggestions based on your selected venue, floor plan ideas, escort/usher card ideas, favor concepts and timeline suggestions to achieve a personalized look and feel for your wedding day. Within two weeks after our consultation, you'll receive a comprehesive design brief detailing a plan for you to draw inspiration from and implement as you desire.
Floral Design & Decor: We offer wedding day florals custom created for your day! We work with you to develop designs that fit your budget, style and venue. From bouquets to centerpieces, from alters to entryways-- we make your wedding day shine!

Shelby is wonderful! We selected the full planning service so she helped from start to finish. We were planning our wedding from the East Coast which is what prompted us to get a coordinator. The entire process could not have been easier. Shelby was incredibly easy to work with and was always willing to jump on the phone to chat. She created a detailed timeline for the year leading up to the big day so we knew when to get different vendors scheduled. Her recommendations for vendors were top notch, especially catering. She got a sense of who we were and the things we liked and tailored every recommendation accordingly - she’s never short on ideas. We were nervous about booking a venue without seeing it in person but Shelby gave us FaceTime tour of each venue we wanted to see and was very candid in her feedback of how the reception would work for each venue, given our high guest count. She was reasonable with helping us budget the reception and letting us know where we could cut costs. Overall we could not have been happier. We’ve heard planning a wedding was stressful but with Shelby, this was simply not the case. Everything was perfect. Despite all of our communications being long-distance, we were very comfortable with telling her what aspects of the planning process were confusing or stressing us out and she was always patient, understanding, and had solutions to everything. Our families afterwards told us they felt very lucky that they didn’t have to worry about a thing for our wedding day - thanks to her, they were able to enjoy the day to the fullest.
We also used Shelby for florals, and wow, everything was gorgeous. Neither of us had a super strong sense of what we wanted initially so Shelby started by laying out different possibilities and pointing out differences in various design styles that we wouldn’t have picked up on otherwise. She gave us some time to think about it and once again got a sense for what kind of designs we wanted. For this aspect, she helpfully laid out various options at different budget ranges. We loved everything about the design, which was beautiful, unique, and highlighted the best of the PNW. We highly recommend her!

The best wedding planner ever!
I can't say enough good things about my experience with Shelby. The entire process was just a dream, and the wedding itself was better than I could have ever imagined. As someone who is not from Seattle, and not familiar with the wedding world at all, I really appreciated Shelby's guidance as to her preferences and suggestions. She does a great job of providing guidance while still keeping your personality and vision in mind--I never once felt like I was being pressured into anything I didn't want. If I changed my mind on an idea, Shelby quickly and seamlessly changed course to fit the new idea without ever once making me feel like it was going to be a problem. Working with Shelby allowed me to truly enjoy the entire process of wedding planning. I loved meeting with her to talk about wedding prep; it was like meeting with a friend! The wedding itself looked like it was from a fairy tale. I still can't believe how beautiful it was, and I got a ton of compliments! Shelby kept everything running so smoothly that we were able to sit back and enjoy our day without worrying about any of the logistics. The best thing about Shelby, I have to say, is her personality. Her excitement is infectious!! You will love her and your family and friends will too!

Thanks to Shelby, I had the wedding of my dreams!
Shelby made our wedding day feel like an absolute dream! She was so calm and thought of everything so we didn't have to stress. Any worry we had she was right there with a solution from beginning to end. She listened to our ideas for the day and really cared that our wedding was what we wanted it to be. Even our guests commented on how great she was. I cannot recommend Shelby enough!
