The Planning Q&A

Full-service planning means guiding each element of your wedding from the earliest conversations through the celebration itself. This includes creative direction, venue and vendor sourcing, guest experience considerations, timeline development, logistics, and on-site management.

I work closely with my couples throughout the process, offering thoughtful guidance and clear oversight so decisions feel intentional rather than overwhelming.

I specialize in intimate weddings of 80 guests and under.
This scale allows for a more considered experience — one where design, hospitality, and personal details can be approached with care and presence.

Smaller guest counts often lead to more meaningful celebrations, without sacrificing elegance or intention.

Yes. I plan weddings in locations that are meaningful to my couples — whether that is where they live, where their families are rooted, or a place that holds personal significance.

While New York and Morocco are places where I bring deep, longstanding experience, my planning approach is not destination-limited. Each celebration is guided by the same level of care, cultural awareness, and logistical clarity, regardless of location.

Most couples reach out 9–18 months before their wedding date, though timelines can vary depending on location and complexity.

If you’re early in the process and seeking guidance, that is often the most helpful time to begin a conversation.

I take on a limited number of weddings each year to ensure a high level of involvement and attention throughout the planning process.

This allows me to be fully present with each couple and maintain a thoughtful, hands-on approach from start to finish.

Planning is collaborative and guided. I provide structure, insight, and recommendations while ensuring decisions feel aligned with the couple’s values and vision.

My role is to simplify complexity, anticipate your needs, and offer steady guidance throughout the journey.

Once an inquiry is submitted, I review the details personally and respond with next steps.

If it feels like a potential fit, we’ll schedule a consultation to discuss the celebration, your priorities, and planning needs in more depth.

From there, we determine whether working together feels aligned.
