If I asked you what you thought a wedding planner is, you may picture stern woman in her scratchy polyester skirt-suit telling everyone to hold still, stand up straight, and look tall. Her “Super Nanny” glasses aren’t even as scary as her tone when cake cutting happens precisely 5 minutes late.
Here at Creative Grace Planning, we prefer to think of ourselves more like Franck Eggelhoffer from “Father of the Bride” (If you’ve made it this far in life without seeing this classic- add it to your watch list immediately).
Franck enters their lives and is an immediate staple in the wedding. He’s a part of the family and terribly fun, and yet, he carries as much weight and authority as Mrs. Polyester-Pant-Suit.
Have you been considering a wedding planner but haven’t quite found someone that’s the right fit? Let’s touch base and see what fun we can get into together!
From the invites to the charming decor, we will make sure to help bring your vision to life in a way that fits your budget!

Creative Grace helped me so so much. I was not the most organized or communicative Bride and they handled everything for me. I didn't think I would need a planner, then I got to a month before my wedding. Everything was so chaotic and I realized I was in over my head. I posted in a group on Facebook, and they ended up reaching out to me, and after the first email and speaking with Anna, I knew they were the ones to help. Once we booked they even sent me a cute bride box, which I thought was thoughtful and such a nice touch, they really make you feel spoiled and special! I also thought their intake form was great because they ask for very detailed information about relationships that everyone in the wedding party has, they really want to know about your specific situation. They helped me by setting up and coordinating my entire wedding day and communicated with all of my vendors to ensure a great experience. I got compliments from my videographer and photographer because they were so great to work with. Kayla and Ava were so helpful and supportive. I feel like I just told them what I wanted and they made it happen. We even had a last-minute switch in the order the bridal party was announced, and Kayla confirmed that with me and then relayed the information to our DJ and it was flawless. They also were super quick on their feet when I decided I wanted to do a "fake exit" since our photographer was leaving for the evening. We didn't pre-plan it at all and Kayla communicated with the DJ, Photographer, and Videographer and made it happen seamlessly. I am so happy we went with them, the peace of mind was worth the (very affordable) price! If you need wedding coordination, I highly recommend Creative Grace Wedding Planning!
I'll be in touch shortly
