We craft beautiful parties
FOR THE DISCERNING FEW
EVERY LAST DETAIL
In limiting the number of couples we work with annually, we are able to pour thousands of hours into every event we take on and truly personalize our approach to form a deeper connection with our clients along the way. This gives us the tools to craft an experience unlike any other, for anyone other than you.
Our full-service planning and design services include everything required in producing the highest quality events.

Our Approach
As a boutique firm with full-time professionals dedicated to each project, we maximize efficiency and meticulously attend to every detail. Unlike smaller operations, we don’t rely on one person for both creative and logistics—we have specialists within each area who work alongside each event producer.
Under the guidance of our founder and creative director, all designs start in-house. Kate curates color palettes and the overall design, selects vendor teams, and fiercely protects the integrity of each and every event we do.
Planning Portal
We’ve turned our 16+ years of experience planning events into a proprietary portal that can be customized for each client to suit their lifestyle and ensure all deadlines are made and needs are communicated.
curated Research
We may have systems and best practices in place, but we also work flexibly to suit your needs. We strive to understand how you make decisions and prefer to communicate to make your planning process efficient and enjoyable.
Visual Inspiration
We develop a lookbook brimming with ideas and inspiration, covering everything from fashion to flowers, allowing you to envision every aspect of the design as it unfolds.
Interior Design Approach
We design your event like an interior designer transforms a home, using sketches, floor plans, and tactile samples to create a style that blends the location with your story and personalities.
How We Begin
We begin by discussing the necessary investment for the overall look and feel of your wedding weekend. Each step that follows is taken with the intent of respecting that, and working towards achieving the desired style of event.
We don’t use a standardized vendor list. Instead, we work to understand your needs and make recommendations for not only the best vendors, but the best vendors for you and your particular event. Each year, we travel the world to vet vendors, discover emerging talent, and refine our network to ensure we always offer the premier resources for each client. Our partners’ skills and services are heavily considered along with how they could fit on each vendor team.
VENDOR Communication
Using creative briefs, timelines, emails, and virtual calls, our team manages all vendors before, during, and even after your wedding to ensure flawless coordination and an impeccable event weekend.
Travel Planning
Our in-house certified travel agent ensures hotel buyouts, room blocks, ground transportation, and any other travel needs are handled personally and professionally.
Venue MANAGEMENT
With 60% of our work in destination markets or in tents at private estates that require we build a team from the ground up, we know what’s necessary to produce an event in a multitude of locations and scenarios. We ensure skilled teams are in place and conduct in-person meetings with key staff and suppliers to ensure a smooth experience.
Guest Correspondence
From the first point of communication with your guests, we’ve got it handled. Once invitations are received, our event producers track all responses, note dietary restrictions and any personal needs (accessibility, childcare, etc.), and answer any questions along the way.
Comprehensive Setup & Strike
Once your team of talented professionals starts to take shape, we work closely with everyone to craft a flawless and stress-free process for you. We take the lead and also expect the highest standards from everyone involved. We’re also checking in on you, to be sure you’re enjoying every moment and feel taken care of.
Hospitality
We create a custom plan to care for and entertain your guests from the moment they receive their save-the-date to the moment they fly home—think transportation, the ultimate arrival gift, and curated activities for while they’re in town.
Etiquette Advice
Our team understands the ins and outs of hosting events and getting married— both of which come with typical protocols. We will guide on you all things etiquette, with the explanation of what’s traditional, but also what the modern world calls for, so you feel comfortable navigating any situation that arises.
Minute by Minute
Even the most beautifully designed event needs a perfect flow. Our team creates a detailed, color-coded timeline for vendors and sends a simplified version to your loved ones 30 days in advance.
Onsite Support
A seamless team of planners and on-site coordinators ensures you never lift a finger, allowing you to stay in the moment all weekend. This includes a dedicated wedding party concierge for both you and your partner.
