This depends. If your wedding is large, with a high guest count and bridal party, you can expect a team of 4+ but if you're event is smaller, then you may only have a team of 2. We will make sure to staff your event specific to your details and needs.

Will you help with serving food at my reception?

Accepted Answer

No, this is a job specific to your catering team. Any food and/or beverages are served exclusively by your catering team. We are not Serve-safe certified. We will however get you a cocktail or glass of wine to enjoy during cocktail hour or during your photo formals.

Question 7

What is not included?

Accepted Answer

We do understand that there is some grey area with regard to planning and coordinating. As we are not a full planning service, we will not be providing design services, contract negotiation, attending vendor meetings or booking vendors for you.

Additionally, we will remain focused on managing your timeline, vendors and setup during the wedding day, so we won't be running errands, assisting with hair and makeup, steaming dresses, managing playlists at the reception, setting up food or serving food, etc.

We also do not provide services for rentals, draping or lighting or bar services.

Question 8

Why only monthly meetings?

Accepted Answer

Our partial planning package customers have a monthly planning meeting to discuss any questions, FYI's for the coordinator and make sure that your planning process is on track. Meetings are specifically set once per month mostly to keep planning organized, but also because your coordinator is out of the office on the ground at weddings often. Your coordinator is not able to respond immediately to calls and emails as they are coordinating other client's weddings. We scheduled monthly meetings so that you can have the undivided attention of your coordinator.

Question 9

Will you clean my venue at the end of the night?

Accepted Answer

We will help oversee and organize the breakdown of your reception, but we do not provide cleanup services.

Question 10

Will I get to use the planning portal?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely! Clients who select our Partial Planning package will receive immediate access to their custom portal.

Question 11

Once I retain your services, what is the next step?"

Accepted Answer

This depends on the package you chose. Once you reserve services with us, you'll expect to receive a confirmation of your booking with your package details and what to expect going forward. You will also receive a planning questionnaire to fill out... but don't worry, you'll have plenty of time to do this! 
 
For our coordination packages,  services start about 8 weeks prior to your wedding date, so unless you have a question you'll just be able to enjoy putting together your wedding details. We will reach our to discuss those details you decided on and build your timeline for you.

For our partial planing package, service start at the time of booking and continue monthly until your wedding date.
