But that's what I'm here for, to make sure that you have all the help you need planning your wedding or event so that you can be as involved as possible without disrupting your daily life. My name is Devin Farr and I absolutely love wedding and event planning, and that's what makes me great at what I do.

I single-handedly (and happily) planned our wedding and it was incredible--now all I want is to help you plan your event and have fun doing it. I want you to be involved in your wedding or event planning as much as I am, because how else do you know without a doubt that all of your dreams are coming true? Let me handle all the boring, difficult, and stressful stuff of course, and you be a part ofeverythingelse! BUT, if that's not really "your thing", I'm more than happy to take it all on and let you enjoy the finished product as well. Either way, I'm ready to help you! So check out your options on the pricing page and contact today to set up your appointment--because you're worth it!
