Q: HOW MUCH DOES A WEDDING COST?
HP: Every wedding and couple is different! No two weddings are alike, just as no two couples are alike, nor are two wedding budgets alike. I encourage my clients to come up with an amount they feel is reasonable to spend on their wedding – a place where their comfort zone, financially, remains intact.
At Green, we work from that number to develop and design a wedding that is right for them.
Q: WHAT ELEMENTS WILL MAKE THE BIGGEST IMPACT ON AMBIENCE?
HP: Lighting is an important factor in setting the mood for your event. When in doubt, opt for ‘soft amber’ bulbs; they’re classic and flattering. Candles are a part of the lighting design and even just a few votives on a dining table can make all the difference. If you fall in love with an elaborate, vintage place setting on Pinterest, don’t feel like you have to mimic the exact pieces to get the same look. Just adding upgraded flatware or glassware will capture the same essence and give you room in the budget to add other details.
Q: HOW DO WE FIND THE BEST VENUE?
HP: It depends on the size of your wedding and location, of course, but we definitely recommend reaching out to several venues for quotes to get you started. Once you’ve narrowed it down based on budget, we highly recommend visiting the venues in person to get a sense of the ambiance and décor possibilities. At Green, we have numerous options for your ‘d day! Looking for a grand and extravagant venue or smart cozy?

Q: WHERE SHOULD I FOCUS MY BUDGET?
HP: This depends on what’s important to you and your to be bride/ groom. Do you want the decor to be outstanding? Then find an amazing designer who can help identify the overall look and creative elements. Do you want a roaring party with a lively band? Put your money towards a spectacular band and F&B list. Before putting together your budget, sit down with your planner, fiancé, and parents and discuss how you envision the day going and what is going to bring your vision to life.
Q: SHOULD I HIRE A BAND OR A DJ?
HP: Nothing kicks off a wedding reception like a live band. A short and lively dance set before dinner is even served can start the night off on a high note and set the tone for the rest of the evening. If budget, musical preference, or variety is a concern, consider transitioning to a DJ for the post-dinner, open-dancing portion of the evening.
