behind the scenes.

make sure you haven't missed anything
vital. You need an organized planner, you
can trust, to guide you on your wedding
planning journey.

"Helayne is everything we did not know we needed."
"She brought up things I never would have imagined needing for our wedding day. And the thought that I would not have to figure everything out all on my own was so relieving. She made it clear the only thing I would need to worry about the wedding was having the most spectacular time - and it was!"
DEVIN, BRIDE
01 A Structured Process From A Meticulous Planner
Ask any couple I've worked with, and they'll tell you I run a tight ship. As a former teacher, it's ingrained in me. And since 2013, when I decided to pursue wedding planning full time, I've easily applied those traits to wedding planning.
For example, I have a "lesson plan" for every phase of the planning process. I maintain positivity and patience while being organized. I don't shy away from difficult conversations, and I always have a backup plan to present.
In other words, the skills of my past have proven invaluable to creating a stress-less planning experience - and a more enjoyable wedding day.
02 Transparency In Who You're Hiring
Others are teams that include multiple planners.
We consist of one lead planner and day-of-assistants.
So you'll be elated knowing whom you're working with from the start.
03 Experience Your Wedding Day As Your Guests Will
To enjoy your wedding day, you need to enjoy the planning process. Hence, why I named my company The Road to Marriage (TRTM).
As your journey's project manager, my job is to use the skills attained over nine years of wedding planning to guide you to a seamless wedding day.
From clarifying every step of the planning process to making sure you're hydrated during portraits on a hot summer's day, I'll take care of you along the way.
04 Celebrating & Communicating Your Vision
Others work with the same vendors for every wedding (regardless of their client's style)
We recommend vendors that best suit our client's vision.
So you'll be excited to see YOUR vision come to life.
05 Creating Your Personal & Cohesive Wedding
While some couples hire planners because of their specific style, my couples hire me because I create weddings that reflect them. This is why you'll never see me diminish your ideas by telling you to change color palettes or rethink your invitation design.
Instead, I'll listen closely to your vision and recommend the right creative partners to bring it to life. And when prompted, I'll provide suggestions based on my experience to help you further create a meaningful and cohesive-looking wedding.
"Helayne did not disappoint."
"A priority for me in choosing a wedding planner was having someone who would have recommendations for creative and reliable vendors."
KIM, BRIDE'S MOTHER

Christine & Logan
Christine and Logan's priorities centered around
creating memories with their guests. It was hard
being separated because of the pandemic, and they
wanted their wedding to be a chance for everyone
to come together.
We created a wedding reflective of their
priorities and values.
Michelle & Brandon
As busy professionals, Michelle and Brandon
valued candid communication. They needed a
planner who maximized their time, provided
realistic options, and kept them motivated
during the planning process.
