Contrary to popular belief, you do not have to include every tradition on your wedding day. You and your partner can intentionally free up time in your wedding day timeline for more of the things you love instead of what you feel obligated to do. We're sharing 5 wedding day traditions or elements you can do at your rehearsal dinner or remove altogether over on the blog. Read it here: https://dantusandco.com/rehearsal-dinner/

Client ❤ makes us SO happy!

"We have no words to describe how grateful we were finding Courtney-Rose as our wedding planner. She had the challenge of bringing two big African cultures (Ethiopia and Liberia) together at our wedding. She did her research on both cultures and came prepared for our first meeting. She was very attentive, easy to work with, and professional. She respected our decisions and never put pressure on changing our visions. She had great connections and her recommended vendors were highly professional as she was herself. Her time management and attention for detail and our planned budget were very impressive. My husband and I traveled Internationally three different times during the 11 months, and she was able to communicate effectively, which made us trust her process even more. She made sure we felt heard; even though she had many other couples she needs to work with, she made us feel very special. Additionally, I was completing my school work during this process, and she made it a stress-free and positive experience. She made sure we were excited for every decision we had to make for our wedding. Courtney-Rose, we love you and the hard work you have put in on our special day. We are forever grateful! ❤️❤️"

-Sonya and Thomas

P.S. We love you too!

A celebration of you and your partner's shared or diverse cultures. It's what we're all about. It was a joy to witness T + S's Liberian and Ethiopian cultures coming together during their wedding last fall.

Happy new year! It’s a new year and since there a few new faces around here, it’s only right that I give you a proper “hello!”

I’m Courtney-Rose, the founder of Dantus & Co. Events. I started this small, woman-owned and led business in 2014 with the intention of creating a truly inclusive planning company that celebrates what makes our couple’s and clients so wonderfully different.

In that time we’ve gone on to plan and execute countless weddings and have expanded our services into bespoke design, milestone events and offerings for corporate clients and entrepreneurs.

We dig deep to understand who are client’s are, the issues they care and what excites them and sets their heart on fire. No superficial fluff here.

So let’s get deep - tell me something about yourself in the comments!
