Hi, I’m Danielle. I’m glad you’re here.
After more than 20 years in the event industry, I know how many little decisions go into a wedding—and how much easier it feels when you have someone you trust beside you. I’ll help you talk through the options, ask the questions you might not know to ask, and build a plan that works for you.
I personally guide every Futtitinni wedding. You’ll have my experience behind your planning, honest advice along the way, and a team who understands your priorities.
You’ve done the planning. We’ll bring the final details together and lead the wedding day, so you can be there for all of it.
You want to stay involved, with someone experienced beside you. We’ll help with the decisions, vendor conversations, and next steps, so you don’t have to figure it all out alone.
From the first big decisions to the final details, we’ll guide the planning, budget, vendors, and wedding day. Want an original design concept too? Our Event Design service is available separately.
We’ll start with a conversation and a clear plan for what comes next. How much help you get along the way depends on your collection. With Essentials, we take the lead on final coordination closer to your wedding.
You’ll know where things stand, what needs your attention, and what we’re handling. We’ll keep you in the loop without filling your inbox with more things to worry about.
We’ll help you make choices that feel like they belong together. If you’d like an original concept, a detailed Design Plan, and someone to manage your design vendors, we offer that through our separate Event Design service.
Your wedding should feel like you. We’ll listen, tell you the truth, and help you make decisions you feel good about. You can ask the questions, change your mind, and be yourself here.
