Why Hire a Full-Service Wedding Planner?
Your wedding day should be joyful and stress-free. At Barb Wired, we make that possible by handling every detail—so you can stay present, relaxed, and focused on what matters most.
More Than a Day-Of Coordinator
A day-of coordinator manages what you’ve planned. A full-service planner helps you from the start—refining your vision, keeping you on budget, and bringing together a trusted team of vendors.
Venue coordinators manage the venue. We manage everything else.
