A note from Shay

I was the bride trying to figure this out.

I planned my own Arkansas wedding for about $10,000. That was a choice. I had champagne taste and a beer budget, and I was completely fine with that combination. What I was not fine with was the assumption from vendors, from websites, from every piece of content I found, that wanting something beautiful meant spending more than I had. I'm not here to plan your wedding. I'm here to hand you the map, walk you through the math, and make sure you actually enjoy it.

Everything a planner would hand you

Two ways in. Go all-in or start lean.
