bECOMING AN LBE CLIENT
We take on a limited number of clients per year to ensure each celebration receives the highest level of attention, artistry, and care. Our process begins with intention and alignment—to ensure we’re the right creative partners for each other.
01.
INQUIRE
Share your story, vision, and values
Submit our detailed inquiry form, including meaningful details about your dream wedding weekend - style preferences, family traditions, aesthetic inspirations, and anything that reflects your priorities. The more insight you provide, the better we can thoughtfully assess whether your celebration is a strong match for our services and approach.
02.
DISCOVERY CALL
Explore your vision in detail
If aligned, we’ll invite you to a 45-minute discovery call to dive deeper into your story, your celebration goals, and what matters most to you. We’ll begin to shape high-level concepts and reflect on the guest experience. If it feels like a perfect fit on both sides, we’ll send a custom proposal to make it official.
03.
KICK OFF MEETING
Craft your planning roadmap
Within two weeks of contracting, we’ll schedule your Kickoff Meeting to build your event roadmap. We’ll establish your planning priorities, design direction, and investment strategy, then begin crafting a wedding weekend that feels timeless, meaningful, and uniquely yours.
Our Clients
Our couples are deeply connected to the Northeast. Many were born and raised here, or return each summer to coastal towns that have shaped their family’s legacy. They view their wedding not as a single event, but as a meaningful chapter in a much larger story. One that honors tradition while embracing personal, modern touches.
They value experience over extravagance, memories over material gifts, and togetherness above all. For them, a wedding is an heirloom moment. A once-in-a-lifetime weekend that brings generations together and reflects the beauty of who they are and where they come from.
Driven and discerning, our clients are navigating full lives, building careers, managing homes, launching ventures, and entrust us to lead the planning journey with calm, clarity, and care. We act not only as planners, but as advocates and creative partners, ensuring every detail is aligned with their values and vision.
“I always felt confident and supported with Lia on our side, and when the week of the wedding came, things were a breeze and we could just spend time with our family and friends. Lia, we can’t thank you enough for your steady presence, joy, and expertise through the process. You’re basically the human version of a bottle of champagne!”
