They have industry knowledge, established vendor networks, and handle all of the little details, from contracts, timelines, to day-of emergencies, freeing the couple from being busied with tasks.

We love COLOR at the Wedding Authority! 🩷🧡💛🩵💚Color has the power to evoke strong emotions. Choosing your wedding color scheme is important because it reflects your personal style, and sets the mood for the atmosphere you want to create! ✨ You want your wedding to be authentic and true to you. Tips for choosing your color palette include considering the venue’s existing design and colors, the time of year it is (season), and your cultural traditions. Other elements to consider include the bridesmaid dresses, groomsmen ties, pocket squares, bridal accessories, favors, linens, lighting, stationary, decor, and florals!

Astrid and Winton did a fabulous job utilizing a fun color scheme that resonated with them! It was romantic and soft. Perfect for spring! 🌸

Thank you to all the vendors who made this day magical!
