What are we celebrating?
Start with your vision. Your choices stay with you as you explore planning and rentals.
Guest count drives quantitiesWe use it to suggest seating and tables. It does not raise your planning-package price by itself.
Your date checks inventoryAdd a date to see date-based availability context for rentals. Nothing is held until an order is booked.
Location affects logisticsYour ZIP can estimate delivery/travel. Exact site access, setup and pickup still need office confirmation.
Gallery images are inspiration, not a promise of included equipment or a particular event style.
How many guests?Guest count helps with quantities. It does not change your published planning package price.

A plan built around your wedding
Already have a venue and vendors? Start with coordination. Still deciding how the day should look and feel? Discuss partial or full planning. We will help you choose a scope based on what is already booked and what you still need, rather than treating every wedding as the same project.
Plan the space, not just the table count
Consider seating, catering access, dance-floor placement and movement between areas. Our rental catalog and event-layout tool give you a starting point for discussing tents, tables, chairs, linens and lighting. Final equipment choices depend on your site and availability.
Choose the right level of support
Our published options range from day-of coordination to full-service planning. Review the included meetings and on-site hours below, then tell us about your date, venue and vendors. The written quote confirms your actual services and rental equipment.
What to bring to your consultation
- ✓ Your date and ceremony / reception locations
- ✓ Approximate guest count and vendors already booked
- ✓ What you want handled before and during the wedding

Event planning questions
Can I add planning to an existing rental order?
Yes. Include your order number in the inquiry or call 315-884-1498. We will review your existing rentals and discuss any additional planning services, subject to availability.
Do you plan more than weddings?
Yes. We discuss corporate events, private celebrations, festivals and fundraisers as well as weddings. Events that do not fit a published package are scoped individually.
Are rentals and delivery included in the planning price?
The package details below describe planning and coordination services. Your written quote must confirm the rental equipment, delivery, setup, pickup, travel fees and taxes that apply to your event. Do not assume that an item or service not listed is included.
What happens if my event runs longer than the package hours?
The planning packages list their included meetings and on-site hours. Additional time is quoted with your planning scope. Discuss extra time with the team when confirming your scope.
Where do you provide event planning?

Does sending an inquiry reserve my event date?
No. An inquiry starts a conversation and does not reserve equipment, staffing or a date. Your quote and booking agreement confirm availability, scope and payment requirements.
