Thank you Sam and Whitney for this beautiful review.
“Wendy (and her team) were the perfect planning partners for our wedding. Wendy helped us stay organized, calm, and moving forward at each step in the process. She provided invaluable expertise – helping us identify decisions and options that we would have completely overlooked – and helped us prioritize our focus and tasks in ways that reduced our stress and kept us on track. Wendy is a complete pro and connected us with vendors who were professional, highly competent, and helped us achieve our vision. Her guidance on everything from quality to pricing was spot on. Our wedding vision was nontraditional, but Wendy rolled with every twist and turn we threw at her with grace, creativity, and skill. Importantly, she also brought a great sense of humor that was essential in bringing down the intensity of the planning process. We interviewed a number of planners. We could not have made a better choice. Wendy exceeded our expectations and we give her our highest recommendation.“

✨Your right to marry has not changed.
✨The Respect for Marriage Act ensures that legal marriages — including same-sex marriages — are recognized nationwide.

Your love is valid, celebrated, and worth every beautiful detail you’ve planned. Always. image003.png

Welcome to The Savvy Bride

The Savvy Bride was created November 1, 2014 by Wendy Markum-Scanlan to offer couples a unique approach to the wedding planning process. Couples often feel the intense pressures of creating a “perfect wedding” and that can lead to unnecessary stress and frustration. The Savvy Bride incorporates a light-hearted approach to planning that focuses on quality time interacting with the couple during the planning journey to learn how they communicate and to gain insight into the unique nuances of their relationship. We use this to develop a working relationship that is relaxed, collaborative and authentic.

The Savvy Bride staff combines their professional expertise with a warm, light-hearted approach to make each couple's planning journey an enjoyable experience and their wedding day, a beautiful and authentic expression of their love story.

The Savvy Bride envisions a world where all couples have the freedom to celebrate their love through marriage. Love is Love is Love!

We are basically wedding nerds, who love all things wedding related and love the excitement of creating and experiencing each wedding with our couples. We love to laugh and we can be more than a little off-color in our humor if it will make our couples smile. We never say no to coffee, we squeal over bridal gowns and we are crafty as hell. We are also unapologetic Harry Potter freaks who have been known to be infectious in our enthusiasm. After-all, Potterheads really are the Best People!
