Virtual Wedding Planning

inspired by the calm of the Northwoods

Planning your own wedding doesn't mean you have to figure everything out on your own.

Northwoods Event Services offers virtual wedding planning for couples who want expert guidance, practical resources, and personalized support -no matter where they're getting married.

Think of us as your planning partner throughout the entire process. You'll receive customized planning timelines, checklists, templates, guides, organizational tools, and one-on-one planning meetings designed to keep everything organized and moving forward. Instead of spending hours searching for answers online or wondering if you're forgetting something important, you'll have an experienced wedding professional to guide you every step of the way.

Every wedding is different, which is why our approach is never one-size-fits-all. Whether you need help creating a realistic planning timeline, reviewing vendor contracts, building your wedding-day timeline, preparing for your venue walkthrough, or navigating unexpected challenges, you'll receive advice tailored specifically to your wedding.

Our goal is simple: help you plan a wedding that feels organized, intentional, and enjoyable - while giving you the confidence that nothing has been overlooked.

Virtual Wedding Planning

Our Pine package is perfect for couples who want to plan their own wedding but also want professional guidance along the way.

Through scheduled video meetings, we'll work together to tackle each stage of planning. You'll gain access to our collection of planning resources, worksheets, templates, and guides, along with personalized recommendations based on your venue, vendors, priorities, and budget.

We'll help you:

  • Create a customized wedding planning timeline

  • Stay organized with planning checklists and tools

  • Navigate vendor communication and contracts

  • Build a detailed wedding-day timeline

  • Plan your ceremony, reception flow, and logistics

  • Prepare for venue walkthroughs and final planning meetings

Whether you're planning a backyard celebration, destination wedding, ballroom reception, or intimate gathering, you'll have an experienced planner in your corner without needing someone on-site.

Need Advice Without the Full Planning Package?

Sometimes you don't need ongoing planning - you just need answers from someone who's been there.

Our Rent My Brain sessions are one-on-one virtual planning consultations where you can ask anything about your wedding. Whether you're feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or simply want a professional opinion before making a big decision, these sessions are designed to give you clarity and confidence.

Common topics include:

  • Reviewing your wedding plans

  • Creating or refining your timeline

  • Budget planning

  • Floor plan and logistics advice

  • Ceremony and reception flow

  • Family dynamics and seating concerns

  • Backup plans for weather or unexpected issues

  • Final month or final week planning

Come with a list of questions - or none at all. We'll spend our time focused on whatever will help you move forward with confidence.

Wisconsin wedding planner reviews from clients

  • Erika was truly a lifesaver throughout the wedding process. She stepped in and took over everything, making what could have been stressful feel so easy and enjoyable. I never even realized all the moving parts happening behind the scenes because she handled them so flawlessly, which allowed me to stay completely present and soak in every moment of my wedding day. Beyond being an incredible coordinator, I now consider Erika a friend — she cared about us and our day as if it were her own. I can’t recommend her enough!

    - Addison, 2025 Bride

  • I am a new mother and I was trying to manage finding time to pump during the wedding reception, and when there was finally a good time, after the dance floor opened up, I had completely forgot about it. I was having a good time and dancing, when Erika came up to me to check if I was able to pump. I was so thankful she reminded me and I went and took some time to do that. Even tho I wasn’t the bride, she made sure I was taken care of too. Erika really cares about the entire wedding party and family. She is so thoughtful.

    - Kenzie, 2025 Maid of Honor

  • Erika was excellent and was ready for anything that could possibly go wrong. She was a steady rock through the craziness of a wedding morning. Would highly recommend her to help ease the stress of your big day.

    - Kelsey M

  • NWES is incredible! Erika is highly detail oriented and exceeded my expectations! Her love for weddings and for her couples is unmatched. As a wedding DJ I work with many vendors and she strongly stood out from the rest. If you are looking for a wedding planning service, THIS is your destination. Can't wait to work together again!

    - Alec, Exceeding Sounds

  • Erika was incredible! She helped me relax and enjoy our wedding day. She was reassuring and consistent in her communication and work! I'd definitely recommend her for any of your wedding events!

  • Working with Northwoods Event Services was such a great experience! Communication was easy, clear, and timely. Erika was personable and friendly from start to finish. The wedding timeline was incredibly organized and made the day flow seamlessly - she was always prepared and had everyone’s back. It was clear how much care she put into helping the couple throughout the day. Overall, Erika was amazing to work with - I’d highly recommend her to other couples and vendors alike!
