What We Do

Wedding Planning

Getting married is one of the greatest adventures a couple can embark on and I am always honored to be a part of their Big Day! I’m a romantic and absolutely love what I do which is why I have been a Wedding Planner for over fifteen years! I’m well-acquainted with venues in every price range, in and around Nashville, and can also curate amazing Boutique Weddings in Italy – you can’t get more romantic than that!

Planning a wedding is more than building a relationship with my couples; it’s supporting them through every step of the planning process while having fun along the way! I always work to keep my couples on budget while executing the wedding of their dreams and my Vendor Recommendation list is curated to offer connections to the best professionals in the business. We offer clients a totally customized experience where they can mix and match services.

Whether I’m bustling a wedding dress, giving a pep talk to a shy flower girl or keeping a few rowdy groomsmen in line, I do everything with joy and a great sense of humor.

Personalized Service

Choosing a Wedding Planner is a very personal decision and my outgoing-yet-calming personality makes me the ideal person to guide you through the planning process. I’m available to answer any questions throughout the planning process and am a stickler when it comes to communicating with your vendors (Photographer, Videographer, Musicians or DJ, Florist, Caterer) during the planning process and throughout your Wedding Day.

 My assistant and I will set-up your décor at the Ceremony and Reception sites and transfer those décor pieces when necessary. We’ll cue the music and send everyone down the aisle at the Ceremony and personally orchestrate all the highlights of the Reception from your Entrance to your First Dance, Parent Dances, Cake Cutting, Toasts, Bouquet and Garter Tosses, to your Sendoff.

 You can be sure your Get Away Car will be waiting for you with your personal possessions tucked inside. And we’ll be sure to pack up some Wedding Cake (which you might not have had time to enjoy!) for you and your new husband or wife to enjoy later in the night.

 At the end of the evening, everything from décor items such as candles and signs to your guest book, knife and cake server, toasting flutes and cake topper, will be packed away and ready for load-out. We’ll be the last to leave the venue once we’re sure that all of your possessions have been moved out and loaded into your friends or families vehicles and check to make sure nothing has been left behind.

What Our Clients Say

Tesimonials

We LOVE Rachel!! Hire her!!

My husband and I live in Boston, so when we decided to plan a micro destination wedding in Nashville, I knew we would need someone local to help us put all of the pieces together to ensure a seamless day. I’m so, so glad we found Rachel. She’s truly fantastic! She’s lighthearted and has a great sense of humor, so in moments of stress, she is sure to put you at ease and problem solve quickly to get through any obstacle that may arise. She’s also meticulous, has tons of local resources, and will take care of all the little details so you can just relax and enjoy your big day!! From start to finish, we adored working with her. We highly recommend her!

Rachel is a superb wedding planner. She is pleasant to work with and extremely competent. She secured discounts we couldn’t have gotten on our own, and she helped us save money by offering cost-cutting suggestions that didn’t noticeably affect the vibe of the wedding. Her contacts and relationships are invaluable. When our transportation company canceled less than 24-hours before the wedding (a problem for a Saturday night wedding in Nashville!), Rachel jumped in, leveraged her contacts, and helped us solve the problem. Most importantly, we were able to be fully present and enjoy the wedding immensely, because Rachel handled all challenges with grace — before, during, and after the wedding. I highly recommend Weddings by Rachel!

Her daughter was married on 12/4/2021

Rachel was incredible!! She was on top of everything between payments to vendors, getaway car, linens, being there for the tastings, etc. If you are looking for a wedding planner, she is the best of the best! My husband and myself couldn’t have made our dreams turn to reality without her!!!!

My husband and I hired Rachel the fall before our July wedding and she was responsive and attentive throughout our entire engagement!! It is clear that she is very experienced with weddings and put our minds at ease when it came to all of the day-of details. She answered my many questions and also got back to me very quickly. If there were any problems on the wedding day, I didn’t know about it. We are so grateful for Rachel and you won’t regret hiring her!!
