When should I hire a planner?

We recommend hiring a planner soon after you decide to have a wedding or event.  The ideal timeline would be 12-18 months before a wedding date but we are able to take on clients with shorter timeframes as well.  We can often help to ensure that the initial vendor selections like venue and photography are in line with vision and budget before it’s too late!  Having a planner involved from the beginning can help to alleviate confusion and keep everything focused from the start. 

I live outside of Winnipeg, can we still meet?

Absolutely! If you live outside of Winnipeg or out of province, we can schedule a meeting via Zoom or FaceTime instead. It’s great to connect face to face so we can gain a better sense of your needs and overall vision. 

Where will we meet?

Our meetings are held at our offices which are in the South end of Winnipeg.  Our team has created a fun and inspiring design area to allow our clients to dream and play with the best décor options Winnipeg has to offer.  We aim to make this process enjoyable and efficient for you and love that we can offer a simple, time saving solution to your planning experience.

Do you rent linens & chair covers?

No, we are strictly an event planning company. We work with an excellent team of vendors that specialize in their field and will accommodate all of your needs. We do have some rentals like photo frames, dessert platters, candles, etc to help with the finishing touches!   This system allows you to have more choices as we are able to access all the amazing options available while passing on preferred vendor pricing.  

Is it true that a planner can save me money?

Yes we can.  We will guide you through the most effective ways to stay within budget while helping to access preferred vendor pricing. We can help you to discern the best elements to splurge and save on, while saving you time in the process. 

How many events and weddings do you produce in a year?

On average we produce 100-120 events annually.

Do you work with a specific team of vendors?

We do have a wide selection of vendors that we recommend to you, but we are open to working with any vendors you choose.  Our recommended vendors share a similar work ethic and strive to do the best for their clients.  Allowing us to help you with those selections provides piece of mind knowing that you are choosing a team that works together to bring you the best day possible.  

How many Soirée team members will be at my wedding?

That will vary based on the size of your event, but we always assign a minimum of two planners per event. If the size of your event exceeds 300 guests, we will increase the size of your team.

Will you travel for my event?

Absolutely!  If you can dream it, we’ll be there.
