UNFORGETTABLE WEDDINGS DON'T TAKE PLACE IN JUST ONE DAY.
The most meaningful weddings take place over MULTIPLE DAYS & MULTIPLE EVENTS ... allowing you to relax & take in all the love, memories & fun experiences with the people you love most.
If you're like most couples who have read this far, you're starting to see the amazing possibilities of a multi-day, multi-event wedding celebration, and what that additional time will do to elevate the entire experience for you and your guests.
But you also might be drowning in the overwhelm of planning ONE wedding, and wondering how on earth you'll manage adding on the logistics of adding a welcome party, farewell brunch, AND additional meet up's with friends & family, right?
We'll need to think about more venues, feeding 80 people 3 times instead of one, keeping drinks cold, putting together welcome bags, additional entertainment and activities ...
It can be so daunting and intimidating that most couples stop right here, toss the idea out, and go right back to planning their one-day-fly-by-in-the-blink-of-an-eye ceremony & reception. And I get it.
But here's a little insider secret for you:
There's an incredibly easy 6-step framework to seamlessly designing the wedding weekend of your dreams. But if you're missing one step, or skimping on another? You risk that flood of overwhelm pouring right back in.
So what if you had a set of step-by-step instructions for designing each and every element of your wedding weekend celebration? Imagine you could plug & play all the various elements ... even if you've never planned anything more elaborate than a birthday party!
Wouldn't that feel AMAZING?
So that you can get started designing your dream wedding weekend celebration on any budget:

Why? Because peace-of-mind throughout your engagement, and especially during your actual wedding celebration is ABSOLUTELY PRICELESS.
Ask any couple who planned in the dark using random guesswork and YouTube videos, and then spent their entire wedding day sweating from anxiety and putting out fires left & right.
And, when you implement just one single idea from the "Budget" section alone, you'll have more than doubled your investment right there. For my over-achievers, implement 2, 3, 4, 5+ ideas, and you'll actually be MAKING MONEY!
AND, you can rest easy knowing there's a 100% money-back guarantee (two of them, actually!)
GUARANTEE #1: Test drive the package for 30 days. When you enroll, you'll have 30 days to go through EVERYTHING inside the Wedding Weekend planning package. If for ANY reason ... and I mean ANY REASON ... you don't feel like this was the best investment you could have made in your wedding plans, email me personally, and I will refund your entire investment, ZERO QUESTIONS ASKED.
GUARANTEE #2: You have until the day after your wedding to GET RESULTS! I don’t know if that’s a year from now, or two years from now - but it doesn’t matter. If you don’t see any positive results from this planning package, simply show me that you’ve done the work, and I’ll refund your investment.

It's time to give your WEDDING WEEKEND GAME PLAN the love + attention it deserves ... just like these past clients:
“Your presence in the wedding industry is a breath of fresh air! ... I want to extend my thanks for your wealth of practical advice & suggestions for circumventing typical wedding industry standards. I've never desired to have a cookie-cutter wedding, and your advice has given me so much creative insight, AND has made me feel validated in wanting to have a unique + classy wedding that doesn't entirely follow the status-quo.”
Brittany N.“I was so excited to hear my question when I listened to this week’s show - thanks so much for featuring it, and THANK YOU for being such a huge part in planning our wedding. I remember how overwhelmed it felt at first and how it didn’t feel fun at all. Total 180 now, I'm finally having fun planning. I’m SO HAPPY”
Lindsay“I was looking for an inclusive wedding planning podcast with a host who supports my wedding as much as any other. And one who is brilliant in all things weddings!! That is my very long thank you, Kara. You make a difference in my life.”
Chris O.The WEDDING WEEKEND BY DESIGN planning package is carefully crafted to answer questions like ...
"How do we MAXIMIZE OUR $8,000 - $9,000 BUDGET across 3-4 days of hosting?"
"We're wondering how to create a distinct atmosphere for each different event, so that each piece feels unique. HOW DO WE MAKE THE WEDDING CEREMONY AND RECEPTION FEEL SPECIAL in the midst of multiple other get together's + events happening in the same space?"
"What are some CREATIVE, AFFORDABLE + EASY WAYS TO FEED A GROUP over a 4-day weekend?"
"What's the BEST WAY TO COMMUNICATE WITH OUR GUESTS throughout the hustle & bustle of multiple parties / events?"
"Part of me wants to go for it, but part of me feels like it's just going to be too much and take away from the actual wedding day - HOW DO WE KNOW WE AREN'T BITING OFF MORE THAN WE CAN CHEW?"
"IS IT CHEAP / POOR ETIQUETTE to invite guests to hang out at a bar for happy hour, but not pick up the tab for the group?"
"DO WE HAVE TO PROVIDE TRANSPORTATION for each event if people will be drinking?"

A full-service coordinator to bring your wedding vision to life from start to finish will be, in most cases, a $5,000 - $10,000+ investment. Also important to note, traditional coordinators plan a rehearsal, ceremony, and reception - not an extended 3-5 day experience consisting of multiple events & activities. This package is specifically designed to plan all of the specifics of a multi-day, multi-event wedding celebration, from start to finish - for just a tiny fraction of the price tag for a full-service wedding planner.
In nearly every wedding scenario I've seen in 12+ years, there needs to be a designated "Point Person" who's fielding questions, directing vendors, and keeping things organized. This does NOT have to be a PROFESSIONAL Day Of Coordinator / Wedding Planner. The Wedding Weekend by Design package includes a bonus meeting that walks you through very specific steps to "train" a loved one to fill this important role for you ... saving the additional expense of hiring a professional planner.
