Love is infinite. Postponing the biggest celebration of your life doesn’t quantify your love. Take this time to continue building towards the “marriage” of your dreams, it’s priceless.
We will get through this together, love always wins!

Postpone, don’t cancel your wedding. It can be hard to think past 2-3 months, but hotels, venues, meeting spaces, and your selected wedding professionals are working hard on your behalf. We will navigate you through this time and will ensure that we are making the best decisions for you, as a couple and a family.

I know, I know this wasn’t in the plans. Take a moment to cry, yell, scream. Have all the feels. Now let’s look at this logically and start with contacting the venue for dates and triple checking with ALL your Vendors to see if any of the dates match. We will then evaluate all the data and make a sound decision.

Take this time to reconnect with you partner and enjoy the silence and time off . Planning a wedding can be very overwhelming and we often get distracted by the ‘’noise’’ (family, friends, invoices) and forget about the reason for the entire
celebration ‘’US’’.
Darryl Moore

Although canceling may seem like the easy fix I’d say postpone because completely doing away with the event sometimes can result in venue/vendor’s fees going up based on how far out you want to rescheduling or they may end up being booked. Postponing the event(s) would at least ensure having vendors/venue that you’ve already locked in at a certain price & gotten accustomed to instead of starting all over again. Please trust the people(professionals) you’ve hired to execute your vision. Most importantly….. DON’T WORRY/STRESS but instead let us do that because that’s why you hired us.

I told every one of my clients (corporate and social) — “When it comes to this situation, you couldn’t have a better wedding planner at your service. You are in excellent hands and I have your back.” (Which is crazy, because that’s not usually how I talk. — But, I understand and know risk and crisis management!)
