Flexible Consultations

Service Description

Had your free consult and still unsure, no worries! If you’re not ready to sign a contract yet, we offer hourly consultations. Choose between a wedding planner at $50/hour or our senior planner (owner) at $100/hour. Both offer the same high-quality service and guidance, as all our planners meet and discuss each client to ensure you're fully taken care of, no matter who you choose. Choose your planner and book as needed—you can always decide on a contract later. Your wedding, your choice!
