Wedding Planning & Precautions During COVID

 I will be doing everything I possibly can to ensure you and your guests are safe.

Prior to your event I am:

  • Checking regulations in which county your wedding is taking place in
  • Reading and monitoring your venue and vendor cancellation policies

Here are the safety precautions I will be following during your event:

  • Maintaining 6 feet at all times
  • Wearing a mask
  • Sanitizing hands frequently

Wedding ideas during COVID:

  • For favors do facemasks or hand sanitizer
  • Designate seating for those at risk away from others
  • Do a live stream for those who are uncomfortable coming
  • Create seating where only those from the same household sit together
  • Have plated style meals
  • Book a venue outdoors

We can continue your wedding plans cautiously!
