What Makes Destination Wedding Planners Different From Regular Ones Okay so destination wedding planners aren’t just people who plan weddings in pretty places. They’re actually travel coordinators who happen to be really good at weddings, or wedding planners who became really good at logistics across borders and timezones. There’s a huge difference between someone who […]
Okay so you need to find a wedding planner First thing – figure out what you actually need because there’s like three different types and people get this confused all the time. Full-service planners handle everything from day one, partial planners jump in maybe 3-6 months before and help with vendor selection and design stuff, […]
What a Marriage Planner Actually Does (And Why You Probably Need One) Okay so here’s the thing about professional wedding coordinators – most people have absolutely no idea what we actually do until they’re three months out from their wedding and realize they’ve booked seven vendors who all need different information and Uncle Jerry still […]
What a Full-Service Wedding Planning Company Actually Does So a full-service wedding planning company is basically the option where you hand over pretty much everything to professionals and they handle it from the engagement announcement all the way through cleanup after the reception.

We’re not the same as full-service planners who handle every detail from day one—we’re more like strategic advisors who step in at specific […]
So You Wanna Plan Micro Weddings Okay so micro weddings are basically the opposite of those 200-person extravaganzas where half the guests don’t even know the couple.

Like zero protection. They lost their entire deposit and I’m […]
