Setting the Scene
Martina & Riley are engaged and excited for their wedding, January 29th, 2022! You have gotten the venue booked and have a clear vision for a classic wedding ceremony at the beautiful St. Rita’s Catholic Church, with a reception following at the Hotel Crescent Court. You are expecting about 200 guests and are hoping to send Save the Dates out to family and friends very soon. You’re confident getting the big pieces booked but would like some sound advice on great vendors and definitely someone to pull everything together in the final weeks before the big day allowing you to really enjoy the celebration.
Your vision of a ceremony that is understated and elegant, followed by a reception that brings a memorable and unique vibe (i.e. stations-style menu for an interactive element) that will allow for all of your guests to be together, mix, mingle, and really bond over this shared experience. It is incredibly important that you find a planner who can assist you in navigating all of the choices that are available, while also helping execute your personal intimate entertaining style.
While you both lean toward an aesthetic that is more classic and traditional, Riley and Martina, you really believe in an understated less is more type of atmosphere that truly reflects you as a couple and will allow for a relaxed vibe in an elevated atmosphere. You’ve selected a classic black and white color palette for the day, with beautiful white floral and plenty of candlelight. The music is also an important element of the evening making sure that you have a DJ that can play music that you both love and some Argentinian music especially for Martina and some of her guests!
While you’ve booked some very important elements of the wedding, you’re looking to complete planning well without adding unnecessary stress, or making anything “over-the-top”. Riley and Martina have amazing family support with Frances ready to help with the leg work and research, and need a partner to help with sound recommendations knowing the vision for the day! I would love to assist you in this process, planning a memorable celebration for Riley and Martina!
