    Would you marry on a boat?
    Or on a farm that has some goats?
    Would you marry in a Nor'easter under the snow and rain?
    Have an outdoor reception during the end of a hurricane?
    Would you marry here or there?
    I'll help you marry anywhere!
    (P.S. I have done all of the above!)

    From simple to completely off the wall, I love learning about our clients ideas and making their vision come to life.

    With 19 years in the business, I've seen a lot, but I am always looking to see more! I offer packages to fit wherever you are in the planning process. Let me help keep your stress level down and your excitement about your approaching celebration up!

     

    How I cater to offbeat weddings

    If you live your life offbeat, your wedding should just as fun and quirky as you are everyday!

    As a blue haired, tattooed queer nerd girl and parent of a LBGTQ+ teen, I walk the walk and talk the talk. So bring me your DIY projects, your favorite fandom or that awesome cosplay outfit that you want to build your wedding around and let me help you make it so!

    Calling her a planner doesn’t take into account everything she did! Fran was a guide through the unfamiliar world of weddings, a sounding board for ideas and creative projects, the person to push when we needed pushing and to hold our hands when we needed it, a huge supporter when we needed solidarity as LGBTQ folk navigating less inclusive aspects of wedding planning, and sometimes a therapist...
