Event Planning & Catering Services

Consultation & Coordination

Connected Welcome: an initial consultation to dive into your vision and needs. 

This first interaction is fully complimentary and gives me an opportunity to get a ‘feel/vibe’ for the dream event you are wanting to create, individually tailored for your specific wants and needs. During this consultation we will craft a magical timeline and checklist, and we will discuss venue and vendor recommendations and liaison services. All following communication and liaison will be discussed and an agreed price established prior to commencement.

Moving forward, you can be assured I have masterful budget management and tracking. We will have ongoing consultations and updates, and I follow the ‘keep it local’ principle, ensuring a closer connection and impeccable delivery.

On your Day-of Dreams: I will be on hand for all coordination and on-site management to give you a seamless experience.
