No Detail is Overlooked When a Wedding Planner Gets Married

FYP Products: Linen-like Cocktail Napkins
I started the planning process for our wedding the same way I start the process when planning for a client... the budget. Every event must start with the budget conversation. Once we got that piece nailed down we were able to talk through our priorities for the day and determined our “limits” in each budget category; Food & Beverage, Entertainment, Attire, etc. We had 11 months to plan our wedding – which was the perfect amount of time for us. We kept ourselves on track and stress free by conquering our “wedding chores” one weekend at a time and always paired it with some fun. For example, when we went searching for Dustin’s tux, we spent the first three hours of the day shopping, then followed it up with delicious craft cocktails (something we love) at our favorite bar Pacific Cocktail Haven. It’s so important to keep the process fun! If it’s just about the singular day, you are missing out on making so many lovely memories with your partner.
The result? An event artfully painted with 35 of my dearest “friendors” a-la tray-passed cotton-candy rosé, SF’s best food trucks, 30’ balloon garland, a 6,000 (plus) hand-tied ribbon installation, rotating flow of gastronomic appetizers by Foxtail Catering, espresso cart, silent disco, Willie Wonka worthy late night treats, custom neon signs by LA Signs Tech and Ashley Smith Events and brass-stamped ice cubes, cups and napkins branded in the theme and logo of our wedding, #motherbuffalo, from For Your Party.
