Frequently Asked Questions

Do you offer decorating and design services?

While my area of expertise does not involve event design, I will absolutely help you set up the usual decor items such as table centerpieces, signage, cake stands, vases, etc. In addition, I will help take down your decorations the day of. I will not be responsible for setting up or taking down ceiling decor or creating bouquets, and I also won't purchase or transport your decor for you, just to give you an example of some of the services I do not provide. Pictures of how you want decor set up is very helpful!

What if the venue doesn't offer table, chair, or linen set up/take down?

Most venues will offer this service as part of their rental fee, but if they don't, I am happy to assist with this for an additional fee. Setting up tables, chairs, and linens is a lot of work, especially by yourself. I will charge $100 per hour, and it all depends on how long it takes me. At the most, it may take 4 hours at absolute maximum.

What if our venue has a day of coordinator? Isn't that the same thing?

A venue's day of coordinator or venue manager are two very different things unless your specific venue says otherwise. Typically, a venue's coordinator handles details that only apply to the building. For example, the venue's coordinator might take care of unlocking the doors, making sure the room is set properly, taking care of lighting and sound adjustments, resetting the room if needed, adjusting the temperature of the building, ensuring the catering team is out on time, etc.

How far will you travel? What should I cover?

Ideally, I'd like to stay in central Minnesota and the metro, however, I would be more than happy to travel to wherever your wedding is located as long as I am reimbursed for mileage, food, and lodging. Please see each package for details on my travel fee. Unfortunately, I will not plan destination weddings, as they are not in my area of expertise. As far as meals go, it is common practice to feed your vendors dinner the night of.

Do you offer tech or audio visual services?

While I will certainly help in any way I can, I am by no means a tech or AV expert. Please make sure your DJ and venue understand their sound system and audio visual equipment.

What form of payment do you accept?

I will accept cash, check, or Venmo. I do require an initial down payment to hold your date, and I will also set up a payment schedule depending on the package chosen.

Do you require a contract?

I do require a signed agreement. This agreement not only protects myself, but it protects you as well. Plus, I feel it's important to have my work responsibilities in writing so there is no miscommunication or confusion the day of.

Will you work over 12 hours?

You bet! However, I do charge $90 per extra hour.

Will you offer just some of the services I see in the packages?

As long as we discuss which services you'd like, I have absolutely no issue with customizing each package. This is YOUR special day, after all! Every wedding is different. Prices will be determined after our discussion.

What can I expect? Other Questions?

Please set up a meeting with me, and we'll go over the process together. Any other questions? Just ask! Please email me at weddingsbykassidi@gmail.com, or click the purple "Contact" button.
