Six ways we can help
Services and prices
Each service says what is included and where it stops, so you can see which one fits before we talk. Every fee is flat, never a percentage of your budget.

- 60-minute consultation
- priority map
- written next steps

02 · Protect the plan
Coordination
Coordination turns the plan you have already built into a run of show everyone can follow. Ramon reviews each vendor handoff, refines the timeline and runs the wedding day within an agreed window. It does not include full concept development or finding replacement vendors.
- vendor handoff
- timeline refinement
- event-day lead
Best for: couples who have booked their vendors and want to enjoy the day rather than manage it.

03 · Close the gaps
Partial planning
Partial planning steps into a wedding already underway and concentrates on what is still unresolved. The agreed scope can cover vendor shortlists, the ceremony and reception schedule and selected design decisions. Your existing contracts stay with you, and added categories need a revised estimate.
- selected vendor research
- working timeline
- decision tracking
Best for: couples with a venue or core vendors booked but several gaps still open.

Travel, rentals and vendor invoices are billed separately and confirmed before you commit.
- planning roadmap
- vendor coordination
- event handoff
Best for: larger or more complex weddings that need one planning lead from the very start.

Purchasing, fabrication and floral production are quoted separately by the chosen providers.
- palette direction
- material notes
- concept board
Best for: couples who can picture the mood but need help pulling the choices together.

06 · Read the room
Venue walkthrough
Doreen meets you on site to check guest flow, the ceremony-to-dinner turn, access and setup limits in the real room. You receive annotated notes and the follow-up questions to put to the venue. Floor plans, engineering and vendor-specific measurements are outside this service.
- on-site review
- flow observations
- follow-up notes
Best for: checking a venue works for your plan before you pay the deposit.
