Thank you SO MUCH for reaching out! And well done on taking your first big step to finding someone you trust to plan your wedding.
I am totally addicted to my email, ([email protected]) so you will hear back from me in 48 hours or less. Unless I am traveling. Check IG to see if I have an out-of-office posted. An out-of-office autotreply, if it is on, won’t be sent to you because WordPress+Google isn’t smart enough.

I promised to tell you my wedding budget. I didn’t forget! When I got engaged in 2005, I proposed an $18,000 budget to my dad. He laughed in my face. In the end, including rings and the honeymoon, we spent about $36,000. At the time, we were above the national average. It is a small fraction of what my clients spend these days.
I prefer to be very upfront about budgets. It’s why I’ve written multiple blog posts about wedding costs. My recent couples spend an average of $1000 per guest.
