We specialize in the complex logistics of tented, private property, and non-traditional weddings. And if you have started researching what it actually takes to pull one off, you know the list of decisions is longer and more complex than a traditional venue wedding.
Who coordinates vendor arrivals when there is no venue staff on site? What permits might be required? How do you build a realistic budget when nothing is included from the start? We replace all of the guesswork with intentional planning and expertise.
You're in the right place.
Ready to BUILD the wedding you actually
WANT, without having to figure it all out yourself?

Whether you need full service planning, elevated design direction, or someone to pull everything together in the final stretch, each of our services is tailored to meet you exactly where you are and carry your plans forward with care.

We're also available via text and email throughout the planning process to answer questions and help you navigate any bumps along the way because we're in your corner well before your actual wedding day.

Perfect for: Couples who want an intimate, intentional celebration that's every bit as beautiful and meaningful as a big wedding, just smaller.

Investment: Custom pricing based on your needs. Reach out directly at info@bonafideeventsstudio.com.
