The pretty is nothing without the process.

Every beautiful event lies atop a foundation of meticulous planning. Whether it's a grand gala or an intimate home gathering, each event follows these vital steps of service:

Budget Development:

Finances deserve transparent discussion. As with any investment, you should grasp where your funds are allocated and how they influence the day's emotions. We'll delve into budget discussions, setting clear parameters. With an agreed-upon range, I'll present options aligning with our budget.

Location Services:

The venue is the cornerstone. All decisions, from design to partner selection, stem from the location. Our venue must be stunning, yet practical. Our journey begins with the location, whether we seek one out together or if you already have one in mind. Location services encompass site inspections, in-depth research, education, and contract negotiation.

Design & Details:

Wedding and event design is personal, and on purpose. I seek to understand your worldview, and design through my own artistic lens. Each experience must be utterly unique, capturing your past present, and future. To tell this story, I spent as much time as it takes to truly understanding you. Then – and only then – do I begin the design phase. My goal is to be both timely and timeless, emphasizing a blend of contemporary and timeless designs enriched with romantic and tasteful details. Beyond visuals, design encompasses flow and guest experience, and inlcudes every element of your wedding from entertainment to service.

Presentation:

Presentation is part of my process, and you can expect to receive a series of bespoke documents and tools throughout the planning phase. These tools, developed to aid you in conceptualizing your event and may include but are not limited to inspiration boards, narrative stories, sketches, renderings, AI deseings, and live demos.

Production:

Once you approve your design, we move into the production phase. I become the liaison overseeing all custom-made items, flowers procured, entertainment set, and menus curated. I'll ensure that everything aligns with your precise specifications.

Event Execution:

We are live! It takes more than a day to bring these designs to life. In fact, many of the installations you see on this website have taken nearly a week to intall. During this time, my team and I are on-site working as a liason between the all production partners. With an experienced team on-site, every aspect is meticulously overseen, from production to guest interactions. Imagine us as the maestros behind the curtain, orchestrating each moment.

Concierge Services:

Prioritizing your guests is paramount. Hence, we offer elite concierge services, from website development to guest communications. Our goal? To relieve you of the logistical burden. We provide services such as RSVP management, style guidance, and more.

Social Media & Story Telling:

In the digital age, sharing your experience amplifies its reach. At Andrea Eppolito, our dedicated team collaborates with you to ensure your event shines on social platforms. We also work with renowned photographers to immortalize your event's moments.

And So Much More:

Ultimately, the services you receive will be tailored to your unique set of needs. Reach out today so that we can begin discussing how we can make all of your wedding dreams come true! Click here to inquire.

THE PROCESS

WHAT DO I DO?

Whatever is necessary.

COMMUNICATION

Communication is unlimited; phone calls, emails, text messages, and in-person meetings.  Some of my clients are very tech-social and like to share via Instagram Direct Messages.  Others prefer in-person meetings over coffee or lunch.  Whatever works for you is what we will do.  We will have phone calls.  We will have meetings.  We will text, trade, and hopefully play.  This is supposed to be fun! Let's have a good time! 

We must respect the work we are doing together.  I pride myself on being available for my couples. Communication is constant and comprehensive. You will speak to me, and I will speak to everyone else. I am the hub that connects you to the larger team, reviewing details and working to ensure we are on point, on time, and on budget. Proposals and contracts will be reviewed and sent to you clean, with utter transparency.  You will have the opportunity to review everything and ask questions. Answers and a pathway forward are not always instantaneous. Some requests require research, time, and answers from our supporting teams. You will be kept up to date on the progress of any and all tasks. Inquiries and questions will be responded to within one to two business days.

We will work together to complete our tasks during business hours, with the understanding that we may occasionally need to schedule calls and meetings after hours and on the weekends. We all lead big and busy lives and always strive to respect your schedule and private time.

Know that I am here for you, always.  

CREATIVE PARTNERS

The world is shrinking, and the very best people are at your fingertips online.  Over the years, I have had the opportunity to develop relationships with the most insanely talented creatives.  There is one common thread that we all share: we are obsessed with what we do!

Together, we work as a team.  And that team is always changing based on the client's style and needs.  As I learn more about you, I will place you with the vendors best suited to exceed your expectations. Trust that each person who joins our team is a master of their craft.

Our creative partners are our lifeline, the backbone upon which we build our events. Together, we share ideas, support one another, and work in a way that allows us to stretch, grow, and create. We will place you with the right people at the right time to create a just-right outcome.  

Have a relationship with someone I have yet to work with?  Before we can welcome them to the team, I will evaluate their business process and work product to ensure they are a good fit for this project. I do have a vetting process and look forward to expanding our network to include creative partners that share our values, are committed to excellent, and meet our service standards.
