A perfect wedding > any other perfect event (corporate, nonprofit gala, etc). The reason is that weddings are harder to “get perfectly right” because there’s more scrutiny by each guest. Talking about the wedding (after the wedding) is part of the wedding.

And when I say “perfectly right”, I’m not referring to the food being good, or the bathrooms being clean, or the space being stunning — those are givens. I’m referring to the more organic situations that arise during a wedding. Although the usual are timeline changes (some speeches go long, ceremonies can go short, guests might really enjoy the cocktail hour and push things back that way, etc), there are other things that happen that we attend to. A guest’s heel breaks? We have temporary shoe glue. Bridesmaid dress rips? We have a full sewing kit. Someone is drinking just a bit too much? We keep an eye on things and cut them off tactfully ourselves (we do that for our own liability, but it benefits y’all).

Essentially, on top of rigorous planning, we keep a pulse on things the day of and take responsibility and accountability for everything that happens within the space. We believe that we benefit in reputation and pride of work if a wedding goes perfectly, and that includes the small things we “aren’t” responsible for.
