Hi, I’m Emily

I firmly believe this should be one of the most enjoyable and exciting seasons of your lives together before you take the next step in your relationship.

And it can be with the right support. I also know firsthand that wedding days get very personal, very fast. Narrowing down your guest list, the pressure of pleasing others, managing family matters, friendships, and finances take an emotional toll and have you eyeing your local courthouse and Googling last-minute plane tickets to Fiji like, “That doesn’t seem so bad?”. Yet, deep down in your heart, that’s never been what you’ve wanted.

[Enter: you being right here, right now.]

As your wedding planner, I’m here to capture your vision, help you navigate every decision, and advocate on your behalf to ensure you get the day of your dreams while still delivering an unforgettable experience for you and your guests.

You know that saying, “Have your cake and eat it, too”? Well, we say, “Plan the event of your dreams and enjoy it, too.” Lucky for you, there’s still usually a cake involved.

From luxury weddings to celebrations and corporate events, my mission is to help you plan an iconic, memorable experience and have fun along the way. P.S. browse the journal for my best tips for defining your vision and values as you get started.

WHAT SETS US APART

You’ve Never Planned an Event Like This Before

  • With the average wedding having a ~1-year timeline, your planner (kind of) becomes the third wheel in your relationship. That said, I prioritize creating a space of connection and laughter while helping you gut-check your decisions, bringing peace to chaos, and keeping it casual while ensuring all boxes are checked. Learn more about my dream day services.

  • Being your partner in crime gives you access to over a decade of event planning experience in luxury wedding planning and high-volume corporate and 5-star hotel events. Managing all levels of budgets and styles, we ask that you please not hold back on your vision. We'll make it happen. Need inspiration? Browse some of our previous dream days in the gallery.

  • My standard is to help you plan an event no one else has ever experienced. Whether that means being innovative in my design approach or advocating on your behalf to bring your dream day vision to life — I'm a make-a-way, find-a-way planner who isn't afraid to get creative in her implementation.

Planning Your Dream Day Doesn’t Have to Be Chaotic or Confusing.

With 10+ years of experience in all types of event settings, I've truly strategized, planned, and handled it all.

Paired with my degree in Hospitality Management from Penn State, I’m also a Certified Wedding Planner (CWP), Certified Meeting Professional (CMP), and a Certified Good Time (CGT) (the last one isn’t an official certification, just stating the facts) who has planned in all types of event settings, from 5-star hotels to high-volume corporate events and luxury weddings in major cities such as NYC, LA, and now the DC/Baltimore area.

Using my well-developed background, I guide my couples through my proven Dream Day Method that takes them from what they've always hoped their wedding day would look like to experiencing it.

By keeping your vision, values, and vibe at the center of planning, I'll help you navigate every decision and remind you of what's important to you as a couple while having fun along the way to "I do.” Curious about how to cultivate your vision and values? Head over to the journal to learn more!
