We knew we were on track, but the comms weren't overwhelming. I always knew I could reach her and get a timely response, but often she was anticipating what I would need or might ask and would beat me to it.

PARTIAL PLANNING
EVENT MANAGEMENT
We call this planning for the "final mile" of the wedding planning process. Beginning at 3 months prior to the wedding date, we'll help you dot the Is, cross the Ts and make sure your vendor team is operating on the same page. The end goal? You (and your guests) get to kick back, relax and enjoy the wedding day you've spent so much time planning. From the ceremony rehearsal to the last dance of the night, we have you covered.
You've set your date, and maybe you've brought on a few vendors, but you're feeling stuck on what's next. Or maybe you're looking for a knowledgable partner to keep you on track. Either way, we have you covered! Partial Planning begins at the moment of booking and gives you unlimited email access and monthly calls with your planner to cover whatever you need, from timelines, to floor plans, vendor recommendations + more.

OUR HUDSON VALLEY WEDDING PLANNING FOUNDATION
Weddings are wonderful - but they can also be incredibly heavy. Between family and friends not fully grasping your "non-traditional" vision, your inner monologue convincing you the location of your wedding will inconvenience your guests and a million and one little details - things can get pretty cloudy. This is why I come from a place of emotional support. And I lead with getting to know you so that I can help you make decisions that are in your best interest.

Since 2012, I've planned hundreds of weddings. But it isn't just my wedding planning experience that will help me shape your wedding weekend -- it's a culmination of everything that came before.
My background is in theater direction and stage management, my education is in communication, and before I fully launched my planning career I spent time as a wedding gown consultant, catering director, paralegal and more.
