PORTLAND & CASCO BAY · A TEAM, BUILT RIGHT.Portland & Casco Bay Wedding Planner
From the Old Port to Cape Elizabeth to the islands of Casco Bay, Portland gives you everything: historic hotels, waterfront restaurants, private clubs, oceanfront inns and islands a short boat ride away. I bring together a custom team of Maine’s best vendors around your vision and your budget, manage every contract and payment, and place a dedicated coordinator with you on the day.
Getting married on an island? Ferry schedules are second nature to me.

Peaks, Chebeague, Great Diamond, Long and Cliff Islands are magical places to get married, and every one of them runs on the boat schedule. I’ve spent 30 years getting my own family to and from a Maine island, so ferries, freight and backup plans are second nature.
Everyone across the water, on time.
Ferry and private boat plans for your guests
Rentals, food and flowers delivered to the island
Weather backup plans that actually work
An evening timed around the last boat home
For couples who want the island without the worry.
Your budget, kept.
Without a plan
Most couples start planning with a number in mind, but no real way to track it. They find a vendor online and book them, then find the next one and book them too. By the time everyone is booked, the forgotten pieces show up: rentals, transportation, all the small things. A $75,000 wedding ends up closer to $100,000, and a $350,000 wedding turns into a half-million-dollar wedding. These weddings are often understaffed, too, so vendors end up doing work that isn’t theirs and family members spend the day working instead of celebrating.
With me
When you start with me, we set your budget before a single vendor is booked, and every choice is built to fit it. Whether your number is $75,000 or $350,000, that’s the number your wedding is planned to. If you ever go above it, it’s because you chose to, never because something was forgotten. Your wedding also has the right number of people working it, so every vendor can focus on their own job and you and your family can simply enjoy the day.
Begin the Planning Conversation
Couples typically begin with a consultation where we discuss the scope of their celebration and the level of planning support they may need.
