Additional Services | Décor Setup & Takedown

For couples who love the creative part — and want the execution handled with care.

If you are designing your own details (signage, centrepieces, menus, place cards, welcome table styling, etc.) or working with a florist but sourcing the “extras,” this service gives you what you’re missing: hands-on setup and end-of-night teardown, done smoothly and correctly.

You bring the vision and the pieces. I’ll bring the structure, precision, and calm leadership to install it all exactly as planned, and pack it all away at the end of the night.

This is for you if…

  • You are doing DIY décor and don’t want friends/family setting it up

  • You have a florist, but still have personal items and styling elements to place

  • You want your venue to feel finished and intentional, without running around

  • You want your wedding day to start (and end) without logistics on your shoulders

    • On-site setup of client-provided décor items (tablescape details, signage, guestbook/welcome table, card box table, etc.)

    • Styling and placement based on your plan + inspiration photos

    • Coordination with venue access timing and vendor arrivals

    • Ensuring key spaces are photo-ready before guests arrive

    • Returning at the end of the night to take everything down

    • Packing all items back into bins/boxes (as provided)

    • Collecting personal décor pieces and consolidating for pickup (or as arranged with venue)

Every decision she made honoured both me and my husband. She was not just managing logistics, she was advocating for us, grounding us, and ensuring our day unfolded exactly as it should. While a part of me wishes she could have simply attended our wedding as a beloved guest, I am endlessly grateful she was there in the role she played.

Our wedding was better, calmer, and more meaningful because of her.
