Get to Know Emily
Most Iconic Wedding Day Moment
The moment the couple first locks eyes, before meeting at the altar. I’m a sucker for that first glance.
With an Iconic Wedding Q&A
Most Iconic Wedding Song
“All Night Long” by Lionel Richie! But really, anything disco or ABBA is fair game.
Most Iconic Wedding Dress
There’s two: Carolyn Bassette’s (I’m actually obsessed with her entire wedding production) and, of course, Princess Diana’s.
Most Iconic Wedding Movie
Father of the Bride, because what bride doesn’t want to get married in their childhood home? Also, Franck Eggelhoffer is everything.
Beyond weddings…
Most Iconic Sunday Brunch Order
Quiche, always quiche! And, a good croissant paired with a strong black coffee goes a long way.

Traveling to our national parks. Have you met our happy camper, Otis?

Frequently Asked Questions
01. Why hire a wedding planner?
A wedding planner is the ultimate resource to have in your arsenal as you plan the biggest celebration of your life. I’m not just your Wedding Planner, I’m your Wedding Confidante (read: advocate and wedding bestie). I work closely with you to ensure you have peace of mind from beginning to end, so that you’re always seen, heard, and cared for. Relax and revel in your celebration – I’ll handle the rest!
02. How often do you meet with your clients and where?
For me, communication is key. I meet with my clients as many times as necessary to bring the desired vision to life! I’m lucky to work collaboratively with my clients using Aisle Planner – known as the greatest wedding planning software of all time (read: most iconic). Detailed checklists, timelines, budgets, style guides, calendars, and documents – you name it, it’s all housed there. And, whether you want to chat about hair, makeup, invitations, or seating charts, I’m always a phone call away!
03. What’s your wedding planning signature?
I love sending my couples little gifts and surprises throughout the planning process. They never know when they’re coming, but they might get a sentimental card in the mail or a fun playlist with our favorite tunes from the planning process. I want my clients to know that I’m always thinking of them – around the clock!
04. Does Emily Ventura travel?
OF COURSE! I love traveling, especially for weddings. Visiting new venues and working with new vendors is a personal obsession of mine. I mean – who wouldn’t want a little getaway? Visit the Destinations page to learn more about our travel services.

If you haven’t hired Emily…go ahead and do so! I would have been lost throughout my wedding planning without her! I have the hardest time making decisions and trusted Emily to help me make those tough decisions. She helped me and my fiancé bring our wedding vision to life! She knows the best vendors to work with and has fresh ideas. We were originally supposed to have our wedding in 2020 and she made moving our entire wedding so simple. She turned into a great friend and I’m so stinking thankful for her!

Emily is absolutely incredible. We loved working with her every step of the way. Emily helped us create our dream wedding, and fought for every last detail to be perfect. I appreciated that she was honest about her opinion when it came to décor and vendors since she has planned and attended many more weddings than me and my husband. I am looking forward to the day I can hire her as a planner again (baby shower?!) since our experience was more than enjoyable. Hire her!!!

Hiring Emily as our wedding planner was hands down the best decision my husband and I made other than deciding to get married. As someone who has a type A personality and is normally the planner of all things, I thought it would be really difficult to let someone else take the reins throughout the planning process, but Emily left me with absolutely no doubts. She took care of everything! I couldn’t write this review without mentioning Emily’s professionalism, attention to detail, communication and creativity. However, what really makes Emily incredible is the love she has for her job and her clients. When you hire Emily you don’t just get a wedding planner, but a friend who has your best interest at heart. We would recommend Emily as your wedding planner without any reservations. She truly is one of a kind and, simply, the best!

Wow! There aren't enough kind things I can say about our experience working with Emily. She was able to take an idea I had and create it into the dream wedding I had always wanted. Her communication was exceptional and she was always prompt – both with my husband and I, and with the other vendors. Emily was always there to offer words of advice and guidance, and helped make my day as stress-free as possible. She also is just such a joy to be around – it was like hanging out with a friend! I could go on and on, but to keep it short, I will say that I would recommend Emily to anyone in need of an event planner. Thank you Emily!
