5 min read · Saturday morningGeneric checklists assume a $35K wedding with 200 guests. Yours is nothing like that.

You've spent 40 hours on Pinterest and you're more overwhelmed than when you started.
Three steps. Then one helpful email lands every Saturday until the big day.
Date, budget, guest count, city, wedding type. Takes 2 minutes.
Timed to your countdown. What to do this week, what it should cost in your city, and what to skip.
Ask anything. “Is $3K enough for flowers in Nashville?” We answer with your full context in mind.
Every email lands at exactly the right moment, whether you're 18 months out or 6 weeks away. No irrelevant advice, no scrambling to catch up.
Photographer rates in Nashville are not the same as New York. We give you local benchmarks so you know what's fair before the first sales call.
Backyard elopement. Micro-wedding. Traditional 150-guest reception. The advice you get is built around your wedding, not a generic template.
A $12K wedding and a $80K wedding need completely different guidance. We never assume what you're working with.
We earn a small commission when you buy something we recommend, like stationery from Minted or a registry through Zola. That's it.
Your planning guidance is never compromised by what pays us. We recommend what's right for your wedding, not what pays the highest commission.
