We are an award-winning Creative Planning, Styling & Production company based in Victoria, British Columbia. We bring bold, beautiful, unique weddings and celebrations to life. We love handling the teeny tiny details that come together to create a memorable day for you and your guests.

We had only 3 shorts weeks from planning to wedding day. Emma had everything in control to the point, that on the wedding day, I didn’t think about a thing.

Carolyn & Derek

… Emma’s attention to detail and truly creative touches were what made this such a special day for all of us. Francesca

We had the great pleasure of experiencing a perfect day on our wedding day… our whole experience has been such a gift which will forever stay etched in our memory.

Mirjana & Scott

… I was absolutely blown away by Emma’s attention detail, creativity, professionalism, and perfection. She was able to bring my visions to life and then some! Claire

hard to believe this beauty has been working on our team as one of our lead planners for over a year now! ✨ Dakota (@iamdakbateman) came to us with a wealth of party planning knowledge and an incredible desire to learn even more. But most importantly Dakota filled a hole in our team that I didn’t even realize we had! Since joining our team, Dakota has taken the lead on over a dozen weddings, completed her @wpicinc certification, and even had her first two styled shoots EVER picked up on @greenweddingshoes & @realweddings! Dakota is bubbly, friendly, outgoing, hilarious, ALWAYS up for a challenge (and a ☕️ or 🥂) and ALWAYS quick to lend our other planners a helping hand. Last year, in the height of wedding season, she also pulled off her own SURPRISE wedding shocking her & her fiancé’s family and friends with what they thought was a long weekend BBQ - seriously! Happy 1 year(-ish) anniversary @iamdakbateman, our little world would be much less of a party without you in it! || : @mollyjanephoto . . . . #yyjweddings #victoriabcweddings #vancouverislandweddings #pnwwedding #pnwedding #victoriaweddingplanner #pnwcreatives #pnweddings #yyj #westcoastweddings #weddinginspiration #weddingplanner #weddingdesigner #creativedesign #lifeofawpicweddingplanner Camille (@camilleandconfetti) has always been our venue hunting go-to - she’s found some serious gems over the last couple of years for some lucky clients - but this year I’m actually most excited about the incredible designs she’s working on with our clients, from a colourful west coast wedding fiesta, coined Ticket to Cabo, to a beautifully elegant reception celebration at the @innatlaurelpoint with modern touches! Last night I was reminded again of her design talents as another incredible series of mood boards for an upcoming editorial was sent off! I can’t wait to see it all come to life this coming season! #teamworkmakesthedreamwork || : @sabrinapatrice for #sarplusjar with lead planner @anoukfitzner! . . . . #yyjweddings #victoriabcweddings #vancouverislandweddings #pnwwedding #pnwedding #victoriaweddingplanner #pnwcreatives #pnweddings #yyj #westcoastweddings #weddinginspiration #weddingplanner #weddingdesigner #creativedesign #behindthescenes #lifeofaweddingplanner #weddingcake #oohlalacupcakes #beachhouseweddings

I love how almost everyone is watching Madeline and her dad walk down the aisle, but if you look REALLY close, our mother of the bride and father of the groom are actually watching Jackson’s reaction to his future wife walking towards him #madsaboutjack || : @emilybeekscreative . . . . #yyjweddings #victoriabcweddings #vancouverislandweddings #pnwwedding #pnwedding #victoriaweddingplanner #pnwcreatives #pnweddings #yyj #westcoastweddings #weddinginspiration #weddingplanner #weddingdesigner #creativedesign #weddingceremony #greenhousewedding #greenhouseweddings #industrialwedding #bohowedding #weddinginspo before we even had our first party consult (which she’d been patiently waiting for!), London had already been really clear about her Frozen birthday party wishes: #1 NO perogies #2 lots of fun with friends #3 a s’mores bar WITH marshmallows (as opposed to without) In the end, yesterday afternoon was filled with an Ardendelle beauty counter for princes & princesses, a marshmallow filled s’mores bar, a craft corner, a balloon snowball pit, and a visit from the Princesses themselves - #partygoals #noperogies || : @sarreynolds . . . . #yyjweddings #victoriabcweddings #vancouverislandweddings #pnwwedding #pnwedding #victoriaweddingplanner #pnwcreatives #pnweddings #yyj #westcoastweddings #weddinginspiration #weddingplanner #weddingdesigner #creativedesign #uptownvictoria #balloonlove #emcandtheballoons #balloonpit #qualatex #frozenbirthday #frozenbirthdayparty #karaspartyidea #abmlifeiscolorful
