Event Management &

Design

Perfect for the couple who has already booked their venue and major vendors, but understands the need for professional guidance with overall design and bringing their vision to life.

Event Management + Design allows you to handle the majority of the planning, but gives you that extra bit of help you need in the design of your wedding. I will create a custom design for you, as well as make vendor recommendations for design-related elements such as lighting and floral. As we get closer to the wedding, I will take over vendor communication and handle all day-of logistics, so you can transition seamlessly out of the planner role and be fully present to enjoy your wedding day.

Investment starts at $5750 for event management + design //
$8500 for full service planning

Corporate, Social, or Non-Profit Planning

Our planning services go beyond just weddings. From anniversary parties and milestone birthdays, to non-profit galas and corporate social events, our extensive planning background lends itself perfectly to all types of events. 

We truly don't have 

words to describe how

happy we were with Denae.

She was beyond excellent from day one, making every step so incredibly easy. More than that, we actually had a ton fun planning our wedding. Most importantly, Denae had our back in every way. Having an honest and supportive ally through the planning process was invaluable.

Franny, bride

During the planning process, we would say

"thank God we have Denae."

We meant it. She even did something cool for us the day of our wedding. It was a personal touch we would expect only from her. In short, if you are planning a wedding anywhere around the MSP area, my wife and I cannot recommend Denae any more strongly. She is amazing.”

Phil, groom

My husband and I can't say enough

 wonderful things about Denae! 

Denae is experienced and organized. We are SO grateful we had Denae during our planning process... she kept the process (and the whole wedding day) minimally stressful and FUN! Strongly consider hiring Denae for your day! You will not regret it!! Highly, highly recommend!

how happy we were with Denae.

She was beyond excellent from day 1, making every step so incredibly easy. More than that, we actually had a ton fun planning our wedding, which was legitimately only possible because of Denae. Most importantly, Denae had our back in every way. Cannot recommend Denae enough!!! 

Franny, bride

Everything from the planning process

to the wedding far exceeded my hopes!

Your calming and grounded presence throughout the process allowed me to be as at ease as possible. I really appreciate the way that you managed it all and kept us on task when we needed to be. I would recommend you to anyone and everyone. In a lot of ways I wish it didn’t have to end!

Katie, bride

Throughout the entire journey we were

in awe of Denae’s capabilities.

She was prompt and extremely detail oriented, ensuring nothing was missed when it came to the many fine details. She was always 10 steps ahead and carried herself confidently, making me feel assured. It’s clear that she has found her calling because she has a natural gift for what she does! 

Erica, bride

Denae is a wedding planner extraordinaire!

She has such a kind  presence.

Denae helped coordinate our wedding from start to finish. From meeting with vendors to mulling over wording for invites, she was always by our side. She went above and beyond lettering signage, putting together welcome bags... It was the best day ever and we owe it all to her!

Courtney, bride

You will actually be able to enjoy the

process , like every bride deserves..

I live in Minnesota and our Wedding was in RI-- and Denae was still able to plan this across the country. She is absolutely amazing. The sense of calm that she brought to the whole process was priceless. Denae, thank you for helping to give me the wedding of my dreams!
