Coach & Wedding Planner in New Orleans 

Yes! I am a licensed professional counselor in Louisiana, Arizona, and Connecticut, providing premarital counseling for couples in those states seeking therapeutic support. For couples outside of those areas, I integrate similar techniques into my coaching and can share resources if you need insurance-covered counseling.

The one-on-one sessions are more about what comes up as you plan a wedding — like attachments to the wedding narrative, traditions worth keeping or breaking, finding vendors that align with you, managing family dynamics, and better communicating with each other. We’ll explore your values, traditions and the inner-workings of your relationship in a way that inspires joy and impactful decisions as the wedding, and your marriage, nears. I have the know-how to address the emotional ebbs and flows, but the process is designed to create ease, enjoyment, and clarity. For true counseling services, this is available (per my license) in Louisiana, Arizona and Connecticut.

With my home in New Orleans, I plan weddings and work with couples throughout Louisiana. However, if you are planning a wedding in a destination close to your hearts and hope for a holistic approach like this, send me a note and I can share more details for destination weddings. If you only need wedding coaching, these services are available remotely! Regardless of your location, we can find a coaching plan that works for you and your wedding. 

It’s about finding the right people to surround yourself with. Those who will bring a positive energy to your experience and represent your values. For those who love to support local artists, I’ll search regional markets for something that suits your tastes. For the sustainably minded, I’ll recommend florists who work with locally-grown, pollinator-friendly varieties. Share your hopes and ideals with me and we’ll create an experience that remains true to your requests in every way possible.

Wedding planning is like a microcosm for the future; I truly just want to set you up for success. Even your dog is considered too! It is helpful to know that I do not include design services (picking out colors for you, designing layouts, creating invitations), but instead focus on helping you navigate these choices, sharing feedback, finding vendors and managing the coordination of each party. I’m there more as a guide, but you’re the director — I’ll work one-on-one with you to accomplish what you envision.

Any celebration, anywhere, for all love stories. That being said, I personally align with intimate, intentional celebrations where traditions are honored, but in a way that goes against the grain. Think bold, unique, interesting — anything that is beautiful, but sincere to the couple. I don’t want to plan the same thing weekend after weekend, but an event that is memorable each time!

It brings me so much joy to know that my heartfelt perspective resonates with a value-driven couple like you. You can begin by filling out this contact form. Then, after a consultation about your needs, ideas, and personalities, you’ll receive a custom proposal. Your coordination or coaching services will be secured in my calendar with a signed contract and retainer fee.
