From the first consultation to the final toast, we’ll handle every detail with care and precision—so you can be fully present to savor every moment of your big day.
Your style. Your story. Our expertise. Together, we’ll craft an unforgettable celebration that feels distinctly yours and leaves a lasting impression on you and your guests.
The Journey to ‘I Do’
Discovery & Dreaming
01
We start by getting to know you—your style, your story, and your vision for the big day. Over coffee or cocktails, we'll dive into the details that matter most to you.
Curating & Crafting
02
From venues to vendors, mood boards to timelines, we handpick every element to align with your vision. Expect personalized recommendations, creative touches, and clear communication every step of the way.
Coordination & Fine-Tuning
03
As the day approaches, we meticulously manage logistics, confirm every detail, and ensure your plan flows flawlessly. We handle the to-do’s so you can soak in the excitement.
It all begins with your story. Once we’ve wrapped ourselves around who you are, we’ll help clarify your vision—then pour our collective creativity into taking it to the next level.
Allow our trusted team to handle all of the details so that you can enjoy the process and remain present with family and friends. Creating unique events that exceed our clients' expectations is what we do best.

"They ensured our wedding day was focused on the people."
Working with Stephanie Cook and the Creative Planners team was an absolute joy from start to finish! They helped me plan my dream wedding in August 2024. Stephanie’s eye for design, flow and detail is unmatched and her extensive network of vendors makes decisions as a client easy and fun. She picked up on my vision naturally and sourced the right things even when I couldn’t articulate what I wanted—all while keeping us on track. Stephanie and the team addressed everything with enthusiasm, professionalism and grace. And most importantly, they ensured our wedding day was focused on the people. My mom said it best: “I felt like a guest.” We made the best memories and never had a single worry thanks to CP!
