Celebrate your love alongside friends & family with this perfectly intimate, 2 hour wedding, planned from start to finish by Southern Skies.
We choose the venue, date, decor & perfect vendor team. You answer a few quick questions, choose your outfit, your guest list of up to 30 & show up to say I Do!
BIG things come in small packages. Also referred to as an intimate wedding, have the day of your dreams & share it with those closest to you.
Hand-picked vendors, pre-made packages, zero stress. Created for guest counts of 50 or less, micro-weddings are all the rage & we’re here for it.
Let us take care of everything from the beginning or have us step in wherever you leave off.
Offering a comprehensive wedding plan, we'll start by designing a custom vision board based on your unique personality, style & budget.
From there we'll work to take care of all the details so you can enjoy your engagement to the fullest (while of course keeping you in the loop).
This package is perfect for you if you want to be hands-on in the planning, but are looking for extra guidance throughout the process.
Starting from day one, you get the same luxuries as the Event Management package, plus the added bonus of consistent meetings with our team to help with decisions every step of the way.
Starting 3 months out from your event, our simplest package gives you the control to plan your wedding, but lets you relax during the festivities.
We'll be on site to set up, clean up and make sure your day is executed flawlessly. Let us take care of your family & friends so they can spend their time doing more important things- like celebrating you!
Stay in touch with your hand-selected planner through a face-to-face meeting and unlimited email support leading up to the big day.
