Tented gardens. Blank-slate lofts. Destination nothing-in-the-middle-of-nowhere.
Wherever your story needs to unfold — we'll build it from the ground up.

We handle the logistics, the chaos, the hundred tiny decisions — so you can actually enjoy your engagement, sip your champagne, and be in the moments.

What Sets Us Apart

  • We start with your story — not a spreadsheet. Every plan fuses creative direction with strategic execution. No templates. No rinse-and-repeat timelines.

  • Your wedding should look like you — not a Pinterest board. Whether it’s bold maximalism or refined minimalism, we design with intention, emotion, and edge.

  • From tent builds to complex multi day timelines, we run point on every moving piece. You stay present — we handle the chaos.

  • Relationships are our secret sauce. We work with the best vendors in the game, believe in transparent pricing (no kickbacks, ever), and proudly support and advocate for every kind of couple as LGBTQIA+ allies.

  • We create unforgettable moments with substance and soul. Think big ideas, bigger impact — and a planning experience that actually feels good.
