Michaela & Josh
Venue
Tatra Receptions
THE BRIEF
Josh worked fulltime and Michaela had a medical condition that prevented her from keeping up with things from time to time. They also really wanted to keep to their budget of around 25-30K total.
Someone with industry knowledge who could recommend good vendors to them who would be able to make them feel comfortable.
Lots of family overseas who couldn’t make it so sourcing someone who could livestream the event for those internationally.
Someone just running the day to ensure all details were sorted.
THE PROBLEM
Little money left in the budget for bouquets and buttonholes – decided to save by including a special touch that was a nod to their relationship of origami buttonholes for the boys.
THE SOLUTION
Worked with them to create bouquets and find vendors that fit.
Couple were happy to compromise on a weekday and lunchtime wedding to save on cost fitting into the budget a little more.
