Step One
SO WHERE TO?
There is truly no shortage of amazing venues and talent around the world, which is as exciting as it is daunting. The destination and venue(s) are the entire foundation of your event - no pressure! As your team, we’ll take the weight off your shoulders. We’ll take you through our process and learn about you, your goals, your entertaining style, your aesthetic, and your guests - all before signing a single contract.
Step Two
Logistics and Planning
A seamless event involves so much more than how it looks. A beautiful event means nothing if it isn’t well-produced. It’s about understanding proper service—whether it’s an family-style dinner party for 20 or a multi-course culinary experience for 200, where each guest is served at precisely the same time. It’s about curating food and beverage pairings and presentation based on what your destination is known for, or where you’ve traveled (we do this often, and we love it). It’s about selecting a photographer not only by their portfolio, but on their personality, their medium, and how they handle light. It’s about navigating tenting and permits, and understanding grade changes and generators. From procuring accommodations and ground transportation to managing language barriers, visas, entertainment, guest lodging subsidies, customs, rain back-ups, “island time,” and beyond—we do it all. We serve as your advocates, presenting carefully curated options based on what’s best for you and your event, while crafting the getaway of a lifetime for you and your guests.
Step Three
Design
From creating the perfect color palette for each event; to considering the way a space lights up as the sun sets; to sketching and building structures that serve as rigging points for floral installations; to producing custom linens, plates, glassware, and even lighting fixtures; to creative directing every aspect of your print collateral and “brand” identity - we are at the helm of what your guests see and how they feel, right down to what they will wear. Ultimately, we will design an ambiance that inspires you; creating a cohesive design that mixes who you are and what you love with the unique sensibilities of where you’re celebrating.
Step Four
PRODUCtion
It takes a village to produce a great wedding. After the planning and design is set, we become hosts on your event weekend (or week), overseeing the production and execution from set-up to tear-down. Gifts delivered; rehearsal dinner, welcome party, and other events and activities completely managed. We’ll make sure you have your beverage of choice in hand. Mother nature has other plans? No problem. We’ll run the entire show with you as our guest.
