Why Bliss?

We see the gaps before they’re problems.
Our background is strategy and operations, not just pretty tablescapes. We’ll review every contract and timeline, and catch what’s missing long before it turns into a day-of scramble.

Your vendors, one crew.
You hired great people. We make sure they’re working from the same playbook, on the same timeline, toward the same vision.

Honest, never precious.
If something isn’t worth the money, we’ll tell you. If you’re about to talk yourself out of something amazing, we’ll tell you that too.

Calm is contagious.
You’ll never see us sweat on your wedding day. That’s kind of the whole point.

Small by design.
We take on a limited number of couples each year, so your wedding gets real attention and never gets lost in the shuffle.

Here’s how we’d love to work together.

We’ve built three ways to work together, from the full weekend down to the essentials, so you can choose exactly the level of support that feels right.

  • The whole weekend, designed and run start to finish. You and your people just show up and enjoy it.

    Everything in The Design Edit, plus:

    One Weekend, One Vision

    • A design concept that carries across all three events: a distinct mood for each night, all clearly part of the same story

    • A $750 design credit toward mock-up fees or rentals across the weekend

    • A weekend guest guide and itinerary, so nobody’s texting you asking what time the shuttle leaves

    • Welcome bag concept and assembly for your out-of-town crew

    Friday · The Kickoff

    • Rehearsal dinner and welcome party, designed and managed by us

    • Venue sourcing and walkthrough if you haven’t landed a spot yet

    • Vendor sourcing and coordination for the evening (catering, florals, rentals, and whatever else it needs)

    • Rehearsal direction, followed by an on-site team to run the party so you can actually be at it

    Saturday · The Main Event

    • Full wedding day management with a lead planner and two assistants

    • Every design element executed exactly to the Design Guide

    After Hours · The After Party

    • Designed as its own moment, not an afterthought: late-night bites, music, lighting, and the vibe shift from reception to party

    • On-site management through the after party, including the handoff, the cleanup, and getting everyone where they need to go

    The Weekend Run of Show

    • One master timeline covering Friday through the last song, shared with every vendor, your wedding party, and key family

  • Everything in The Production Edit, plus a design partner who makes sure your wedding looks like no one else’s.

    The Vision · starting February 2027

    • Custom design concept. Palette, textures, tablescapes, lighting, and the full ceremony-to-reception feel, with two rounds of refinement.

    • Creative direction for your vendors. We brief your florist, rentals, stationer, and lighting team so every element speaks the same language.

    • Design sourcing for linens, tabletop, candles, lounge, and signage

    • The guest experience: signage, day-of paper, a welcome moment, escort display, and the late-night touches people talk about after

    The Mock-Up · June 2027

    • We build a full reception table with your florist and rental samples. You’ll see it, touch it, and photograph it before you commit to anything.

    • Includes a $500 design credit toward mock-up fees or your rental orders

    The Design Guide

    • A detailed playbook for every vendor, covering placements, specs, and imagery. Your design gets executed exactly as planned, no guesswork.

  • You’ve got the vision and the vendors. You need someone in your corner who makes it all run like clockwork.

    The Groundwork · starting April 2027

    • Contract & Logistics Review. We go through every vendor contract and hand you a clean summary of gaps, overlaps, and open questions. Nothing slips.

    • Sourcing for up to 2 remaining vendors, with a tight shortlist of 3 for each. No endless scrolling.

    • Two focused planning sessions. These are 90-minute sessions with real agendas, built to get decisions made.

    • A mood board and palette shared with your team, so everything feels cohesive.

    The Lead-Up · starting July 2027

    • We take over vendor communication for the final 8 weeks, and your inbox finally gets quiet.

    • Master timeline, floor plan, and vendor run of show

    • Vendor Huddle: one call with your full team about three weeks out, so everyone shows up on the same page

    • Final walkthrough at The Manor 1858

    The Weekend

    • Rehearsal, run by us

    • Wedding day managed by a lead planner and two assistants

    • Setup of your personal decor and details

    • Breakdown coordination, plus an emergency kit for everything from a busted hem to a missing ring box
