I want to make sure you know 100% what to expect when working with me, so right away I provide this timeline and answer a few questions in advance.
Everything is in "countdown" format, so leading up to your wedding day here is the communication you can expect from me by the way of reminders, milestones announcements, monthly check-ins, and strict deadlines.
And of course, if you want we can start working on anything earlier than listed here!

Within a week of booking - Getting Started
-
I will send you the link to the google folder that will have all of the files and details pertaining to your wedding ceremony.
-
In this folder, you will find the main document we will be working on for your ceremony. At the top of the document is a place for ALL the details (outline, vendor info, etc.) as well as a few notes and questions that I will have later in the planning process, so you can start making decisions for the flow of your ceremony.
-
Days 400 - 150
I am here for referrals and to answer all your questions!
-
There is not much that we need to cover during this time. However, if you want to start on anything sooner than outlined, I am totally down, just let me know. I do like to have our initial meeting around 150 days prior to the ceremony. And I will check in via email or text to see how the planning is going.
Days 150-100
Getting to know each other & start working on your vows!
-
120 Days - Expect a separate email to each of you with a questionnaire that I like you to fill out so I can get to know you and know more about your love story so your wedding ceremony can be just as unique as your love.
-
Also, it is time to start thinking about vows, especially if you are writing your own. When I send out the questionnaire, I also share some ideas via a link to a webpage to get you started.
