Our Process

Our Design & Decor packages are by far our most popular. They also prompt a lot of questions.

So, here's how that process works(:

Pre-Event Consultation and Planning Session 1

Pre-Event Consultation:

30 minutes - 1 hour duration

All of our sessions our held via ZOOM or Facetime. We start the planning process for all clients the same way! Our pre-event consultation allows us to get to know you and get a feel for your vision. We go over our services in detail and pinpoint a package that will work for you.

Planning Session 1

45 minutes - 1.5 hours duration

Typically, we meet with our Design & Decor clients at 12 months out, 6 months out and 3 months out at minimum. The intervals may vary based on your needs. Also, more sessions may be needed to get your designs just right.

Planning Session 1 is always the longest! We will present you with several design concepts for your tablescapes. All of our designs are customized based on your vision. We alter our designs throughout the session to fine tune them to your goal aesthetic. We start with tablescapes because they involve the most detail and your guests will be seeing them up close and personal.

We also obtain your vendor information during this session, sketch out a welcome display concept, and schedule your next session.

Planning Session 2

approx. 30 minutes - 45 minutes

At your second planning session we start with any modifications to your tablescapes discussed in session 1. Once those are set, we move onto your aisle and altar designs. We are a huge fan of alternative altar displays. Drapes, pillars, ground arches, broken arches, etc. Typically, we will come up with two designs for your aisle & altar decor. We show you both and adjust from there.

If we haven't already, we will discuss venue tours, and start working on a rough draft of your timeline.

Final Steps

Planning Session 3 and Check In

approx. 30 - 45 minutes duration

Your third planning session is likely the last one! During your third session we finalize all the little details including your day of timeline. By this point in the planning process, we’ve touched base with all of your vendors and shared your timeline with them.

Final Check-In

approx. 10-15 minutes duration

We will schedule a phone call the week of your wedding to make sure that you feel confident with the plan!
