I see this happen way too often with parents who insist on inviting their friends to their child’s wedding.

Weddings are extremely personal to the couple not you. Out of all the things to be really intentional about, weddings are the time.

Save the introductions of your friends for another event like a backyard party, NYE party or something else that is less personal.

I had a great conversation on the Mayhem & Method podcast with Jen Santos about the night a client handed us a brand new guest list — an hour before a 400-person gala started. The seating chart was already printed (10 feet by 20 feet), the BEO was submitted, and people started showing up with screenshots of emails saying they were invited.

It’s the perfect example of what happens when a client builds a beautifully organized event and then decides the plan is optional.

Head to to listen to the entire podcast.

Not every client is the right client.

We work best with those who value expertise, respect process, care about their audience, and want a true partner—not someone who simply takes orders.

We are not for everyone.

But for the right clients, we bring honesty, clarity, creativity, and an unwavering commitment to getting it right.

As a business owner I cannot pay bills with exposure. The bill collectors want cash so I need to focus my attention on paid work.

Do you agree?

Thanks for the wild video.

My clients don’t see 90% of what happens on event day. That’s the point. After two decades of doing this, the goal isn’t just a great fundraiser event — it’s making sure you actually get to enjoy it.

Trends fade. Intentional design doesn’t. If you’re planning a corporate or brand event that matters, don’t start with what’s trending. Start with what you want people to feel.

Each time wedding publications create a post or release average wedding numbers, the wedding industry fights back.

Why?

Because each time they do, couples start planning around a number that has nothing to do with their city, guest count, priorities, vision, or expectations.

After 21 years in this industry, I’ve never planned an average wedding.

Not one.

Because weddings aren’t statistics.

They’re personal.

The problem isn’t the number itself.

It’s convincing couples that one number can somehow represent millions of completely different weddings.

Your wedding deserves a budget built around your priorities, not someone else’s headline.

If you’re going to post about the cost of a wedding, at the bare minimum do a much better job explaining why this isn’t what couples can expect from their wedding.

I’ve planned events for 21 years.

The ones people remember? It’s never the things you expect.

It’s not the flowers.

It’s not the favors.

It’s not the details people think matter most.

It’s the feeling that everything worked—without them noticing why.

That it made sense.

That it flowed.

That it felt intentional.

That’s what people take with them.

That’s what planning actually is.

My clients don’t see most of what happens on event day.

That’s intentional.

One of the most frustrating things that can happen at a wedding is having the wedding party be responsible for things and not give them the tools to be successful.

The wedding party has a huge job on wedding day: keeping the couple in high spirits.

It’s key for us to ensure the wedding party knows what to do and when so they aren’t overwhelmed or frustrated.

Helping them means making sure the couple isn’t stressed.
