Full Wedding Planning

Our big sigh of relief option! We’ve got you.

Our Full Planning service is for busy couples who don’t WANT to spend 400+ stress-filled hours of their precious free time planning their wedding. Instead, you get to enjoy all the fun parts and leave the nitty gritty to us!

We have the knowledge and experience to save you endless research hours by sharing our expertise and a curated list of Ottawa’s best vendors that Erica has built relationships with over the last 15 years.

With us overseeing every detail, you, your family, and your guests can rest assured, knowing that your exquisitely styled wedding is in expert hands. So go ahead, dance the night away!

Partial Wedding Planning

You’ve got this, we’ll guide you there!

Our Partial Planning services are for those who feel they have the time and motivation to plan their own wedding but would like some direction, recommendations, and on-site wedding day help. Take away the stress of doing this alone, knowing that with our guidance, you are on the right path forward!

We don’t believe in only offering “day of” wedding coordination services since 95% of the planning is done ahead of time. Let us guide you to creating a successful plan, and on your wedding day, you can trust that we will flawlessly execute that well-thought-out plan!

While some people love surprises, we prefer your wedding day planning not have any!

Here is how we equip you for a successful wedding plan:

  • Access to our Online Planning Platform – Aisle Planner
  • Comprehensive Wedding Day timeline
  • Access to our Full Checklist to keep your planning on track
  • 4 Meetings to keep your Planning on track
    ◦ Onboarding meeting to help kickstart your planning and introduce you to our Planning Platform, make vendor recommendations, draft a floorplan for you, organize your “day of” timeline, and make suggestions for those last little details and random questions
    ◦ 1 “Halfway there” wedding review meeting to help keep your planning momentum
    ◦ 1 “Anytime check-in” meeting to deal with that list of questions keeping you up at night
    ◦ 1 “Month before” meeting to review ALL your wedding planning
  • Week of the wedding confirmation of vendor arrivals, deliverables, and departures
  • <1 hour Ceremony rehearsal
  • <10 hours of wedding day help from one Associate Planner + 1 Assistant Planner so you can truly enjoy your incredible day and experience it with all the people who love you.

“The planning process went so smoothly because you were so easy going, patient, organized and always had great ideas. Anytime I didn’t know what I was going to do for certain things you always came up with great ideas, which we used and made our day that much more special.” – Kelsea & Kory

“Erica is a creativity machine who brings to reality a lifetime of planning and wishes for one’s wedding day. Above all, Erica was kind, honest, dependable, generous, and always available to us at a time of great stress and anxiety.  Of all the services purchased for our wedding… she was absolutely the one person we could not have done without.” – Becky & Neal

“The ideas that she had were just fantastic and she thought of every little detail to make everything absolutely perfect. We told her our vision and she took it from there checking in every step of the way.” – Heather & Matt

First came love, then came a plan.
