WEDDING PLANNING

FOR JOYFUL & NOSTALGIC COUPLES

CHAOS TO CALM, CREATIVELY DONE.

We love all things wedding and all things organization. So that being said, we can’t WAIT to plan your wedding. We excel at flushing out high-level planning concepts, and thrive on seeing how details come together. For example, if your wedding is inspired by French vineyards, we might arrange botanical stamps on your invitations with potted herbs on tables, and maybe some fresh fruit as centerpieces! Athena, the lead designer, will work with you on everything in the planning phase, and one of our meticulous coordinators will be your on-site coordinator.

On the logistical level, there so many small details we’ll help you through. Who is taking the cake home at the end of the night? Does your DJ know how to pronounce your in-laws’ names? How would you like your napkins folded? We’ll make spreadsheets, collect linen samples, and craft timelines. One time we even created a color-organized chart of mismatched dresses including personalized purchase links!

LET'S TALK DETAILS!

Being (incredibly) indecisive myself, Empiria was a godsend for me, as I consulted Athena about everything from centerpieces, to the guest list, to the layout of the day. Above all else, she has a warm, welcoming, and bubbly personality that makes her an absolute joy to interact with. My husband and I publicly thanked her at our reception, and we both attribute much of the success of the best day of our lives to her.

FINAL COORDINATION

One of the most important bits of advice we give couples is to NOT have your phone on your wedding day! Nobody should ask you any questions except if you'd like more champagne :) We'll take the reins a few weeks prior to your wedding date and make sure everything gets in formation! From loading dock schedules to packing up presents at the end of the night, we've got it all covered. Time to party!

WEDDING LOGISTICS

Do you have a specific vision, but not quite sure how to carry it out? Perhaps you have most things picked out, but it's busy season at work and you just need some help executing your plans! This is where we come in. We'll take everything you have planned and put it into action. We'll check in regularly to make sure you're on budget, on track, and feeling no stress! (Includes final coordination)

WEDDING DESIGN

If you don't even know where to begin with colors, or have decision paralysis, let's chat! We'll start with a nugget of inspiration, something that makes you happy! From there, we'll work endlessly to infuse your wedding plans with this inspiration into a cohesive, stunning event that wows your guests and represents YOU! (Includes wedding logistics and final coordination).

QUESTIONS & ANSWERS

Why do I need a wedding planner?

The short answer: in addition to making the process easy for you, I will also bring your vision to life in creative ways you couldn't even imagine.

The long answer: planning a wedding is complicated. There are more moving parts than you could ever imagine, and enough options to give you decision paralysis every day. Who really wants to decide the style of napkin fold? (Hint: we do!) We will design a day that will be unforgettable for you and your guests, while you forget about the stress. The last thing you want is for someone to ask you five million questions while you are just trying to enjoy a glass of champagne. If everything is taken care of for you, you can enjoy what matters most!

How do I book your services?

First we'll have a consultation! Ideally over ice cream or drinks, but we can do a phone call if that's easier. We'll want to make sure we're the right fit for each other! From there, we'll send you an electronic invoice and contract. The nonrefundable deposit is 1/3 of your chosen package. Once those are complete, you're good to go and the fun begins!

Do you work with an exclusive list of vendors? Or can we work with any vendor?

You can absolutely work with anyone who strikes your heart on fire! :) There is so much talent in this industry. However, we do have some favorite vendors and always love to pass along their names. We've worked with all of them personally an can attest to their professionalism, creativity, service, and heart.

How much time do I need to plan my wedding?

For full wedding design, most clients book our services 15 months in advance, either right after or before they book their venue. Coordination clients book closer to 6 months in advance when the need to get organized! But we are happy to hit the ground running a few months prior to your wedding if needed!

At minimum, we need three weeks notice for final coordination.
