Planning

Epic weddings don't  just  happen -

 they are masterfully planned!

Every couple has a vision for their wedding day, and seeing that vision manifested to your expectations is our number one goal. We are known for our warm, down-to-earth, non pretentious, playful approach to full-service planning and our abilities to make every clients event or wedding truly unique and special. After all, this is more than your wedding; it’s months and weeks leading up to your big day, and they should be filled with spectacular moments—from that first time you walk through our doors to those first steps into your new life.

​

With our full planning, we'll work together every step of the way, ensuring no design detail or event logistic is overlooked. With this package, you (and your guests!) will be thoroughly taken care of at every turn and expertly guided through the process. 


This service is our most all-encompassing service, and allows you the flexibility and benefit of unlimited communication and planning meetings. We guide you through every step of the planning process: budget creation & monitoring, guest list creation & management, venue selection, floral design, overall guest experience, rentals, & other decor, transportation, wedding attire, ceremony & reception music, food & beverage, timeline creation--and more! We work one-on-one with each of your wedding vendors to artfully manage the process, ensuring that you are involved in the decisions, but are able to focus on enjoying your engagement--while we handle the legwork and heavy lifting! 

 "Ali and Bev were nothing short of FANTASTIC!"

 

"They were our guides the whole way! They are well organized and made sure we knew all of our options. They kept checklists, set appointments for us, researched local vendors and knows every detail about how to plan a wedding. Nothing was missed! On the day of our wedding, the day flowed perfectly, and we owe so much of that to Bella and Bev :) I would recommend Wedding Angel Events to anyone!!!! :) :) <3 <3"

Incredible wedding planner that felt like a true friend!

We got married in a very obscure location therefore I knew I'd need help. I googled Maine wedding planning and Ali's service was the first to pop up and I did not need to look further. We definitely handed her a very difficult wedding dream as it was 2 hours north of Bangor (basically in Canada) in a town of 50 people where we wanted to have a 200 person wedding. She was so organized and thought of everything I never would have. She also gave really great advice and suggestions for things I couldn't quite picture. She's also not afraid to give honest advice. My wedding day as is hopefully everyone's was the best day of my life but I can honestly say it would not have been anywhere near as perfect, beautiful and smooth if we had not made the best decision to hire Wedding Angel Events. Go book them!!

​

You're engaged! Best wishes! Now the fun begins.  Perhaps you work full time and don't have time to plan your wedding, you're not sure where to start, or you aren't comfortable with the wedding planning process at all. No worries! We understand completely, and we're here to help.

 

Hiring a wedding planner is one of the smartest things you can do before starting to plan your big day. We love and enjoy planning one-of-a-kind, personal, meaningful weddings, and we pride ourselves on our attention to detail.  Our team will capture your individual wedding essence to help design your dream wedding, and we'll assist you throughout the whole wedding planning process. We'll advise you with venue and vendor choices, managing your budget, accompanying you to appointments, coordinating logistics, serving as your point person with vendors, etc. We do all of the legwork for you, so your planning experience will be as pleasant and stress-free as possible. 

​

The following is a brief overview of how we will assist with your wedding planning process! 

 

Correspondence

A big part of our job is communicating with you and with your vendors to make sure that everything will run smoothly on the day of your wedding. Since we may be your and your vendors’ main point of contact during the wedding planning process, you’ll want us to stay on top of emails and phone messages and respond in a timely fashion (usually within 24 hours). We’ll make sure that all your vendors have all of the important information about your wedding and know where to be when—sort of serving as the coach for your “vendor team” who will ensure that everyone works together seamlessly.

 

Venue Selection and Tours

If you hire us at the very beginning of your wedding planning journey, we will likely play a big role in helping you choose a venue. This can be a time-consuming process that is quite different than selecting your other vendors. We will join you for venue tours and be part of the discussions and decision-making afterwards.

 

Vendor Meetings and Selection

At your request, we will also attend interviews and meetings with all potential vendors (and you’ll likely interview more than one vendor in each category), and help you choose which pros to hire. We’ll review contracts and can mediate any back-and-forth that might occur.

 

Organizing Documents

One of the least fun aspects of wedding planning is all the paperwork—and yes, there can be lots of paperwork associated with your wedding. We prepare and manage a couple’s budget, prepare and adjust their timeline regularly as we make decisions, prepare and organize their ceremony logistics, drawing and updating layouts. Keeping these documents all up to date and organized, is a big piece of what we do.

 

Wedding Prep

As full-service wedding planners will handle a lot of seemingly minor but very important tasks that will ensure your wedding looks and runs perfectly—and you don’t have to lift a finger. From putting together programs to arranging escort cards and setting up your favor display and ensuring each piece of décor looks as you envisioned it, as planners we have a lot to do to prepare for your wedding so that you can relax and have fun.

 

Wedding Management 

As your wedding planner, we will be on-site for both your ceremony rehearsal and the day of your wedding,  A full-service wedding planner usually arrives well in advance of the proceedings and stays long after to ensure that everything runs smoothly and on time, and that any hiccups, minor or major, are handled. We ensure that you and your future spouse can  focus on enjoying your ceremony and celebration!
