No. We believe pricing should feel clear and easy to understand. There are no hidden service charges for ceremony setup, cake cutting, corkage, or standard bar service. We also do not charge a mandatory gratuity.
Any style upgrades or additional services you may wish to add to your package will always be quoted in advance and are completely optional.
Tennessee sales tax applies to all package pricing.
Flowers and photography are not included in our wedding package.
We believe both are highly personal, creative decisions, and costs can vary significantly based on your style, priorities, and guest count.
By keeping these items separate, you have more flexibility to choose the professionals and investment level that feel right for you. Our planning team is happy to recommend trusted photographers, florists, and other creative partners we know and love. But we strongly believe that how much you choose to invest in these areas should ultimately be your decision.
