Wed with Grace
Gainesville · Ocala · North Florida

Your wedding day, entirely yours.

You've got the wedding dream. What you don't have is the time to plan it. Design and coordination for busy professionals and North Florida couples — whether that's a wedding worked around a demanding job in Gainesville, something grand near Ocala's equestrian estates, or anywhere in between.

Where to start

Three ways we work together

Full planning

For the big wedding dream and the calendar with no room in it. From the venue search to the last vendor invoice, we carry the vision so you don't have to find the hours.

What's included

Event management

You've booked everything. Starting four months before your wedding, we take it from here and run the day so you don't have to.

What's included

A 45-minute call

Stuck on one decision, or unsure what comes next? Bring your questions and leave with a plan.

A few ways to work together

Full planning and event management both come with unlimited email and a dedicated coordinator throughout. The seminar and consultation are one-time sessions — perfect if you're not ready for a full package yet.

Full planning

Starting at $5,500 · Booking 9–18 months out
Recommended to book first

You have the wedding dream — the mood board, the color story, the exact feeling you want walking into the room. What you don't have is time to make three hundred small decisions on top of a demanding job. We do. From budget to guest count to venue, we build the vendor team, manage every contract and payment date, and take the lead on wedding design — the palette, the florals, the tablescape, all of it — so the day looks and feels like the one you've been picturing.

  • Budget build and tracking
  • Venue search and site visits across Gainesville, Ocala, and the surrounding area
  • Vendor referrals, negotiation, and contract review
  • Design direction — palette, florals, tabletop, paper goods
  • Full timeline and floor plan
  • Rehearsal and wedding-day management with your coordinator

Event management

$2,500 · Planning begins four months out

You've done the work of booking your vendors and shaping your vision. Four months before your wedding, we step in to carry it the rest of the way — confirming every detail, building the timeline, and directing the day so nothing falls to you or your family.

  • Three one-hour meetings on your schedule — a site visit with your coordinator, a timeline review, and a final walkthrough
  • Unlimited email correspondence for four months, with phone support added in the final two weeks
  • Vendor confirmations two weeks out, with itinerary review
  • A detailed wedding-weekend itinerary for your wedding party and vendors
  • Rehearsal, ceremony, and reception direction from start to finish
  • Ongoing timeline coordination with every vendor through the planning process
  • Personal-items drop-off the week before, packed up and secured at the end of the night
  • Final vendor payment and gratuity distribution on your behalf
  • Little moments of surprise and delight, like hotel gift-bag delivery for your room block

Often searched as "month-of" or "day-of" coordination — with us, planning begins four months early.

Grace, founder of Wed with Grace
About

Hi, I'm Grace — and yes, the pun was intended!

I've dedicated my work to making sure the flowers arrive, the toasts stay on time, and your wedding feels like you.

I remember being 11 years old, notebook in hand, planning every last detail of my wedding at a sleepover back home in New York. Fast forward many years (and an event management degree) later, and I found myself back at my original passion — making sure your wedding day is your wedding day.

While the Pinterest-perfect wedding you have saved may be used as inspiration, I use wedding design skills to make the day truly about you and yours. Whether it's a shared show, a cultural tradition, or a small shared interest, weaving that into your day is what makes it feel like your day — alongside a secure timeline, a great party, and a dedicated planner to hold it all together.

How I work

I'll always give you the direct, honest answer — even the ones that are hard to hear about budget or timing. Whether you're a working professional in Gainesville planning around a demanding schedule, dreaming of something grand near Ocala's equestrian estates, or reaching out from anywhere else in North Florida, I meet you where you are and tell you where to spend, where to save, and where nobody will notice the difference.
