Elevating Your Design: Tips for a Luxury Feel

It’s no secret that weddings and other special events are a large investment. Whether you’re opting for a quaint setting on a minimal budget or an extravagant ceremony with more room to spare, there are a few things to consider when looking to achieve a luxury feel with your celebration. 

We’re diving into a world of sophistication and refinement as we unveil our expert insights on how to elevate your wedding design and transform your special day into a luxurious masterpiece.


Luxury is in the Details

From the venue to decor, every detail should be carefully and intentionally curated to create the perfect unforgettable experience. While some might seem small, each element really matters. Here are a few to consider:

  • First and foremost, choosing the perfect venue sets the tone for the entire event. Event spaces such as stunning estates, historic mansions, or picturesque outdoor settings can offer you breathtaking views that will leave your guests in awe. See a list of our favorites here.

  • Pay attention to lighting by using warm candles or crystal chandeliers that create a glamorous atmosphere, without distracting from the overall design.

  • Linens should be steamed and pinned so that they fall perfectly. While this may seem like a smaller detail, ensuring that there is a consistent neatness throughout will help your design exude high-quality.

  • Lastly, ensure that every element, from invitations to signage, reflects a cohesive and sophisticated aesthetic. 

Say it with us - don’t diminish the details! These touches are key to a well-put together design. 


All-inclusive < Exclusive

While you may be a packaged deal as a couple, your wedding design services shouldn’t be. All-inclusive or preset packages might seem comprehensive and convenient, but odds are that they might not be exclusive to your individual needs. Here are some things you should consider when starting your wedding planning journey:

  • Choose a wedding planner that takes the time to understand your personal vision and what it will take to bring it to life. No two couples are the same, be sure that the services that you’re paying for aren’t, either. 

  • Work with your planner to create design decks and floor plans so you can start to see how we can bring your vision to reality. For full service wedding couples, we go the extra mile by creating design mock ups so you can really see components of your day come together and make final decisions.

  • Prioritize your wedding must-haves and establish a realistic budget. To give you an idea, most of our couples invest around $1,500-$2,500 per guest. This price range tends to be optimal for the ultimate luxury feel, however pricing can vary, one way or another, depending on your expectations and desires.

The wedding planning experience should feel customary to you and your spouse and working with a luxury event planner that understands this will provide for a stunning return on your investment.



A Seamless Execution

An unorganized execution can ruin a beautifully detailed design.

The most luxurious thing you can do for your event is to ensure that all final details, that you’ve worked so hard on, can be effectively implemented - from setup to breakdown. Working alongside trusted professionals can alleviate pressure, as they handle all of the details from vendor management, timeline execution, and everything in between, so that you can enjoy and be fully present on your day.
