PLANNING

Wedding planning is more than a checklist. While micro weddings tend to be planned with a quicker turnaround, from day one we work tirelessly to ensure your wedding is flawless. We handle all vendor negotiations, budget development, timeline management, logistics and anything pertaining to the execution of your wedding.

You will have access to your online wedding dashboard which includes a custom checklist, design board, timeline, budget, guest list + seating chart, and vendor list so you and your planning team can view updates in real time.

​BUDGET MANAGEMENT

Once the wedding budget has been established, you can expect your planner to carefully maintain it and notify you of any sizable variations. No orders are confirmed without your explicit consent.

You will receive notifications of upcoming payments due so all vendors are paid in a timely manner.

All payments are recorded in the budget tab of the wedding dashboard enabling the you to examine current allocation of all monies received in real time.

DESIGN & decor

A Charleston Bride will create a detailed event design based on your personal style and wedding vision. This process begins very early in the planning process, culminating into an event that is not only intentional but also distinctly your own.

Custom renderings and design boards are created so you have a clear understanding of the overall feel of the wedding. We collaborate with the industry’s elite sourcing from vendors all over the Southeast.

PRODUCTION

Whether you’re getting married among 30 guests or 300, at your original wedding venue or a private home, we will handle every single logistical detail.

From making sure your gown gets perfectly pressed, to styling the most perfect tent set up shot, we are there to make sure every aspect of the meticulous planning process comes to fruition. If the weather takes a sudden turn or a guest becomes ill,, your team is prepared to act swiftly.
