Got some Q's? We've got the A's!
I think the concept of planning a wedding is so exciting for most people. That being said, the average wedding can take about 300 hours to plan. Save your time and sanity by working with a professional from the start.
We normally book out 9-12 months in advance. I suggest reaching out as soon as possible to make sure we have your wedding date available. I only accept a number of weddings each year, so the connection I build with each client is truly the foundation of my work.
The Event Company is based in Fargo, but we plan wherever your heart desires! Just name your place and we'll be there!
A venue coordinator oversees the on-site staff to ensure they fulfill their contractual obligations, serve food on time, etc. Often, the venue coordinator is not there for the duration of the event and / or they oversee other events on the property during the same time. A wedding coordinator works only for you to make every aspect run smoothly, greet all your vendors, send out a timeline prior and make sure you are having a great time celebrating!
The next step would be to meet in person to ensure that our personalities mesh and that we would like to work together. If we find that we are a good fit for each other, we will sign the contract and start planning your fabulous wedding!
Sure, you may have heard of certain popular vendors in our area, but have you looked into vendors that would best fit your wedding? Every couple has its own style and personality. Each vendor will play a role in making sure that it shines through. Let me help you choose the right vendors to create the most unique and personalized experience for you and your guests!
Hello -- it's Tori here! And we know the best because we have worked with the absolute best.
Over the years, I have been so fortunate to work with some amazing vendors in every category. I see all of the wedding vendors as part of the same team. At the end of the day we all just want you to have the day you envisioned. Over the years, we have built many excellent relationships with vendors in and around the area.
This is how we make it happen:
01 / Initial phone consultation and/or in-person meeting.
02 / Once you book, the fun (work) begins!
03 /Vendor selection, custom timeline, budget, etc.
Then comes the big day! Eeek! *Squeals in excitement*
I show up the morning of the event with my clipboard and probably some form of caffeine in my hand. We spend the day making sure everything is how we planned and that you and your guests can enjoy this amazing day!
Kind Words & Love Notes
'This is your vision and we hear you.' Many moments educated me that The Event Company of Fargo was the perfect coordinator to my women's event but this one stood out. Tori and her team executed a dual event on the same day with grace and ease [and if it wasn't, they sure kept the show running without exposing any difficulty ]. Tori became a humble leader, stepping in when I needed reprieve and assembling the vendors in the most successful way. This effort allowed EVERYONE to shine bright and her ability to coordinate will not and should not go unnoticed.
Kind Words & Love Notes
We loved working with The Event Company for our wedding in December 2021. I met with Tori to tell her my vision and vibes for the day, and her suggestions totally nailed it! I loved the details at our wedding - it was exactly what we wanted. It was worth the money to make sure our day was perfectly beautiful and have some peace of mind in not having to do it ourselves. I would recommend The Event Company to anyone!
