How it Works
What to Expect
Every event is different, which is why our planning process is designed around the specific needs, priorities, and level of involvement each client is looking for. Depending on the services selected, we guide clients through a range of planning, coordination, and event management details to help ensure everything feels organized, prepared, and professionally managed throughout the process.
Consultation & Package Selection
We begin with a consultation to learn more about your vision, priorities, style, budget, and planning needs. Together, we’ll review our planning and event management packages to determine the level of support that best fits your celebration and goals.
Planning & Coordination
Once your package is selected, we begin organizing the planning and coordination details that bring your celebration together. From vendor recommendations and event logistics to design elements and overall event flow, we guide you through the planning process with professional support and attention to detail tailored to your priorities and vision.
Event Execution & Management
As your celebration approaches, we oversee the final details, vendor communication, timelines, and event logistics to help ensure everything runs smoothly and according to plan. On the day of the event, we manage the coordination and overall flow of the celebration so clients can feel fully present and enjoy the experience with confidence.

Frequently Asked Questions
I have a catering manager or a venue coordinator, why do I need to hire you too?
Venue coordinators and catering managers focus on the responsibilities directly related to their venue or catering services. Our role is to oversee the overall event experience and ensure every detail, vendor, timeline, and planning element comes together as intended.
As your planner or event manager, we serve as your advocate throughout the celebration, helping manage logistics, communication, and event flow so you can remain fully present and enjoy the experience with confidence.
How do you differ from other planners or coordinators in your industry
At the heart of everything we do is a genuine passion for creating meaningful celebrations and experiences that reflect the people at the center of them. Whether we are planning a wedding, milestone celebration, or special event, we approach every client with the same level of care, attention, and dedication we would give to our own family and friends.
Our goal is not only to create a beautifully organized event, but also to provide a supportive and personalized planning experience that allows clients to feel confident, cared for, and fully present throughout the celebration.
What is your definition of the term "day-of services" and how does that relate to me?
We believe successful event management begins well before the day of the celebration. While many companies refer to their services as “day-of coordination,” effective coordination requires time to organize logistics, communicate with vendors, review timelines, and prepare for the many moving parts involved in an event.
Our event management services begin approximately 10 weeks prior to the celebration, allowing us to become familiar with your plans, connect with your vendor team, finalize event details, oversee rehearsal coordination, and manage the overall flow of the event day from setup to breakdown.
What is it you do exactly and how does that differ from event to event?
That is a loaded question and depends on your event and what you’re hiring us for. As a planner, I create budgets, scout vendors and venues, review contracts, do guest tracking, timeline management, design, and creation. I’m your advocate and your sounding board. There is so much more to what I do it would be best to ask what I don’t.
I don’t have florist skills but I can help you in the direction of what type of flower design would fit for your event. I also won’t get on a ladder. Liability and… afraid of heights.
As a coordinator, I make sure all of the details of your event are executed as perfectly as can be. I ensure cohesiveness from your vendors on the timeline. I bring expertise at problem-solving on the day of your event and am great at time management. I am a very skilled at set up and breakdown.
How can a wedding planner help me save time and reduce stress during the planning process?
Planning a wedding involves numerous details, timelines, and coordination. As the owner of Elite Elegance, I am here to ensure that your journey is smooth and stress-free. By entrusting us with the intricacies of wedding planning, you gain the precious gift of time to cherish your engagement and focus on creating beautiful memories.
From initial consultations to final execution, we’re committed to understanding your unique vision, preferences, and requirements. As your personal guide and advocate, I’ll handle all the logistics, vendor coordination, and intricate planning, allowing you to relax and enjoy the excitement leading up to your special day.
How early should I seek out or hire a wedding planner for my upcoming wedding?
We recommend beginning the planning process as early as possible, with many couples securing planning and event management services approximately 8–12 months before their celebration. Early planning support allows for greater venue and vendor availability, especially during peak wedding seasons throughout Reno, Lake Tahoe, and Northern Nevada.
However, planning assistance can still be valuable at many different stages depending on the event timeline and level of support needed. Whether clients are beginning the process or seeking guidance closer to the event date, we work to provide organized planning support tailored to their specific priorities and celebration needs.
Can a wedding planner work within my budget and help me save money?
Absolutely. Professional planning and event management can help clients make informed decisions, prioritize spending, and avoid costly oversights throughout the planning process. Through trusted vendor relationships, strategic planning guidance, and thoughtful recommendations, we help create well-organized celebrations that align with each client’s priorities, style, and budget.
Will I still have control over the decision-making process if I hire a wedding planner?
Absolutely. Planning and event management are collaborative processes designed to support your vision, priorities, and preferences throughout each stage of your celebration. We provide professional guidance, organization, and recommendations while ensuring every decision reflects your personal style, goals, and overall vision for the event.
Will a wedding planner assist with creating and managing a wedding day timeline?
Absolutely. Creating and managing a detailed event timeline is an important part of professional wedding planning and event management. We work closely with clients and vendors to organize the timing, logistics, and overall flow of the celebration to help ensure the event runs smoothly from beginning to end.
From ceremony timing and vendor coordination to reception events and transitions throughout the day, we oversee the timeline and help manage the details so clients can remain fully present and enjoy the celebration with confidence.

Ashley from Elite Elegance was our wedding savior! The process of booking her and picking out a wedding package was very easy, and she immediately came in with her organization skills to ease the wedding day anxiety. Ashley worked with me to create the design for our day and was able to find everything we wanted to make our vision come true. Ashley played many roles including coordinator, decorator, faux flower florist, and emotional support person for all things wedding! I truly can’t stress how important she was and how helpful she was during this day, I will forever be greatful!

Highly recommend a wedding planner, & Elite elegance was definitely the best choice I could have made. I wasn’t too sure what I wanted for my wedding as she made sure to ask just the right questions. After our consult she layout a vision board which I loved because it helped me picture my wedding day! She is very creative, crafty, helpful, resourceful, & flexible to any changes I wanted. There was definitely great communication within my less than 6 month wedding, I always felt like I can get my question answered within the end of the day and didn’t feel pressured when I didn’t respond. She emailed all of my vendors and when I had questions she would do everything possibly to get me an answer or change something from that vendor. The week of the wedding I was told by so many friends and family member that I was the calmest bride they’d ever seen & honestly I thank Ashley for that !

Ashley literally saved us with her expertise, knowledge and behind the scenes creativity helping us plan our daughter’s cross country wedding. We could never accomplish what she put together in a short time frame. Ashley was available by text or phone at a moment’s notice and never made any question feel dumb or unimportant. We cannot recommend her enough!

Ashley went above and beyond all expectations for our wedding. I know our day would not have happened period, let alone been as beautiful or easy for me and my husband without her. Not only did she help plan and fully execute our wedding, she also used her artistic abilities to make one-of-a-kind decorations, like our table seating chart, that made our day feel even more unique and special. She is the consummate professional, and also just a great person. I am so grateful to have worked with her, and cannot recommend her enough.

Ashley is one of the kindest people I’ve met. She really cares about what she does. She will go above and beyond to make sure that things go smoothly and your day is wonderful. If it weren’t for her, we would have had a giant catastrophe, but because it was in Ashley’s hands, I knew it was going to turn out just fine. She not only is a professional, but has become a friend. Please hire her for your wedding!! You will not regret it!!
