THE MARIGOLD EXPERIENCE
FULL SERVICE WEDDING PLANNING
BEGINS 12 MONTHS BEFORE YOUR WEDDING DAY
What does full-service wedding planning include?
Most couples think wedding planning begins with booking vendors. In reality, the planning process starts long before those decisions are made.
The Marigold Experience is designed for couples who want a trusted planning partner from the very beginning—guiding every decision from venue selection and budget strategy to design development, vendor management, guest experience, cultural traditions, and flawless wedding weekend execution.
Beginning 12 months before your wedding allows us to thoughtfully build every aspect of your celebration without feeling rushed, ensuring every decision supports the experience you want your guests to remember.

PHASE 1
DISCOVERY & FOUNDATION
Every Marigold wedding begins with understanding the couple behind the celebration.
Before recommending a venue, discussing florals, or creating a design concept, we take the time to learn about your story, your families, your traditions, and what you want your wedding weekend to feel like. These conversations become the foundation for every decision that follows.
From there, we establish a clear planning roadmap built around your priorities, guest count, budget, and overall vision. Rather than making isolated decisions, we approach planning strategically—because every choice influences the next.
During this phase, we guide you through selecting the right venue, building a realistic budget, developing your wedding weekend structure, and assembling a vendor team that complements both your personalities and your celebration.
By the end of this phase, you won’t simply have a venue booked—you’ll have a thoughtful plan that allows the rest of the planning process to move forward with confidence.

PHASE 2
Building Your Creative Team
With the venue secured and the foundation in place, we begin assembling the creative team that will bring your celebration to life. Every recommendation is thoughtfully curated based on your vision, priorities, budget, personalities, and the complexity of your wedding weekend.
Unlike many planning experiences where couples are responsible for coordinating vendors independently, The Marigold Company becomes the central point of communication throughout the planning process.
From the moment a vendor is booked, every contract, proposal, design revision, timeline update, invoice reminder, and planning conversation is managed through our team. Rather than communicating separately with ten or fifteen different vendors, you have one trusted point of contact overseeing the entire production.
Our role is to ensure every creative partner understands not only their own responsibilities, but how their work integrates with every other element of the celebration.
As your vendor team grows, so does the complexity of the wedding. We keep every moving piece aligned by managing communication, reviewing contracts, monitoring deadlines, coordinating meetings, facilitating design discussions, and ensuring each decision supports the overall vision for your wedding weekend.
By the end of this phase, you don’t simply have an exceptional vendor team—you have an experienced production team working together under one unified plan.

What We Manage
Vendor Research & Recommendations
Every recommendation is tailored to your priorities, aesthetic, budget, and wedding weekend logistics.
Proposal Review
We review proposals together, explain differences between options, and help you make informed decisions.
Contract Review
Every vendor agreement is reviewed by our team before you sign, ensuring details, timelines, payment schedules, and responsibilities are clearly understood.
Vendor Communication
All planning communication is centralized through The Marigold Company to keep every professional aligned throughout the planning process.
Planning Meetings
We schedule, prepare for, and lead vendor meetings, ensuring every discussion results in clear action items and next steps.
Design Collaboration
From floral mock-ups to lighting plans and rental selections, we facilitate collaboration between every creative partner.
Production Oversight
As planning progresses, every vendor transitions from working independently to becoming part of one coordinated production schedule managed by our team.
PHASE 3
Bringing the Vision to Life
With your venue secured and your creative team in place, we begin transforming ideas into a cohesive wedding experience. Every decision now builds upon the foundation established during the first two phases, allowing your celebration to take shape with clarity and intention.
Our role during this phase extends far beyond aesthetics. While we continue developing the visual direction of your wedding, we are also coordinating the countless logistical details that ensure every event functions seamlessly behind the scenes.
Working alongside our creative partners, we refine your overall design through floral concepts, rentals, furniture selections, lighting, stationery, floor plans, and guest experience. At the same time, we oversee timelines, transportation, room blocks, production meetings, ceremony logistics, and family coordination—ensuring every element works together as one unified plan rather than a collection of individual decisions.
As your wedding becomes more detailed, our communication with your production team increases significantly. We lead planning meetings, coordinate design revisions, review layouts, oversee mock-ups, and continually refine the production schedule so every professional is aligned long before your wedding week arrives.
By the conclusion of this phase, your wedding is no longer simply an idea. It has become a fully developed production plan, ready to be executed with confidence.

PHASE 4
Wedding Weekend Production
When your wedding week arrives, our role shifts from planning to production.
Every conversation, meeting, design decision, and logistical detail developed throughout the previous months now comes together through one carefully coordinated production schedule.
Our team becomes the central point of communication for your venue, creative partners, families, and wedding party. From vendor arrivals and décor installation to ceremony transitions, production timelines, reception cues, and final breakdown, we oversee every moving piece so you never have to.
Throughout the weekend, we remain several steps ahead—anticipating challenges before they arise, communicating updates in real time, and making thoughtful decisions behind the scenes without disrupting your celebration.
Because while your guests are experiencing an effortless wedding weekend, our team is quietly managing the hundreds of details that make that experience possible.
Our goal is simple: to allow you, your families, and your loved ones to remain fully present while we oversee everything else.
