Frequently Asked Questions

Planning a wedding is hard. You want everything to be perfect. But you don't really know what you need, and every time you ask around, people start giving you advice on things you never even thought of before. What if this…? What if that…? Oh yeah! And there's that thing! Yeah, it all gets pretty overwhelming pretty quickly.
Don't worry if you're not sure what kind of wedding you want—we have a tried-and-true process to get you through the wedding planning process to happily ever after. Let us know who you are as a couple, what your budget looks like, and what your priorities are, and we'll help you figure out which package is right for you. We believe in transparency, and we're not going to up-sell you on something you don't need.

We are really transparent about this one. There is no such thing as day-of coordination. Its like a mystical unicorn who lives in the North Pole. It DOES NOT exist. It’s like showing up for a Quantum Physics exam but just scanning the first two pages of the textbook. Now unless you are some kind of genius, you (and I) are going to fail. We don’t set our clients or ourselves up for failure.
It is impossible for someone to show up the day-of your wedding and be able to manage every single detail. There are 100 moving parts. If anyone is selling you on day-of coordination, consider what you are actually investing your money in. We get to know you intimately and know what your vision, goals and dreams are for your wedding. If you don’t mind collaborating with us and becoming our BFF’s well in advance of your wedding, then we are probably an awesome fit.

Unless you’ve planned a wedding before, how would you know? Don’t worry! Just get in touch. We’ll listen to your fears, your hopes, and dreams, and suggest the package that is right for you. We believe in transparency, and we’re not going to up-sell you on a package you don’t need. Everyone’s wedding is unique so that’s why each couple gets custom pricing.

Excellent question! We love working with venue planners on the wedding day! An on-site wedding venue coordinator is great to have, but let’s be really clear about who they work for; they work for the venue. We work for you.
Our jobs are similar, but we actually work in a parallel fashion; they make sure everything at the venue runs smoothly, while we ensure that the show goes on as you wish it to outside of food and beverage service.
We know our client’s wishes in and out because we’ve spent hours with them, so if a venue planner has a question, they come to us before you because we know you on a personal level. This combination means that your venue looks great, and you and your guests are happy.

Yes & No. What most couples don’t realize is that the lists provided by the venues are more often than not a pay-to-play opportunity for vendors. In other words, you have to pay a pretty significant amount to see those vendors on the list that is distributed to the couples. For the venues that do not have this policy and genuinely like working with us, they list June Beri’s services for free! We don’t spend a lot on marketing and nearly all of our clients are referrals from previous June Beri couples or vendors who enjoyed working with our team. We much rather invest in systems and infrastructure that will be beneficial to our couples and truly appreciate the genuine referrals we receive organically.

A wedding is an investment. If you’re going to throw the party of your lifetime, doesn’t it just make sense that you want it to be as fantastic and stress-free as possible? It just makes sense to hire your partner in crime who's got your back. You need someone who's going to manage things so you don't have to think about them, but that you can trust to always have your best interests in mind. That's us!
The clients that hire us are looking for peace of mind. Yes, you can afford it, and you deserve to have the wedding you want and actually experience it. Hiring dedicated professionals who spend their lives making sure people have the wedding they want is worth every penny.

Hey, we've all been there. Your best friends and family members have offered to help you with everything under the sun for your wedding, and you're really tempted to take them up on their offers. They could be of great use selecting colors or picking up your dress the day before the wedding. They'd even be willing to lick stamps for your invitations!
But do them the honor of making them a guest at your wedding. We can guarantee that they don't want to spend their time running around sweating—or feeling like they are under a tremendous amount of pressure. Trust us, it will not be an enjoyable experience regardless of how much they love you.
-
Yes!! We're ready when you are—we need your go-ahead, and we'll roll up our sleeves and get you on track to creating the best day ever.
-
Absolutely! As wedding professionals, you should not accept any less from us or any other vendor. We even check to see if your other vendors have coverage! We also urge our couples to consider wedding insurance for themselves. It’s always a good idea to protect your investment. We’re happy to talk to you more about why.
