Partial Planning
 

 This is our most common package and I like to think of it as hiring your own personal assistant!

We'll keep you on track while providing endless guidance and direction throughout the entire planning process. As your wedding day approaches, we’ll seamlessly step in as the lead communicator with your vendor team—ensuring every element comes together with precision and polish. That way, you can fully embrace the final weeks with calm and confidence, knowing your day is in trusted hands.

Custom Installations + Signage

Interested in having a custom installation piece or signage for your upcoming event but not sure where
to begin?

Let's start with a quick conversation to develop your color palette, size + budget range.

From there, we will
develop a few digital renderings for you to select from before creating the final product!

Once the final product is complete, if it's an installation piece, we'll install it directly on-site for you if it's signage we can mail directly to you!

 

Hourly Consultations

Not every couple needs full planning—but every couple deserves thoughtful direction, expert insight, and a creative sounding board.

Our hourly consultations are tailored for the couple who wants to do things a bit differently. Whether you're just getting started, deep into DIY mode, or trying to solve a specific design or logistics challenge, we're here to help you think outside the box—without sacrificing style, function, or guest experience.

This is your opportunity to tap into a high-end planning approach without committing to full-service planning. Think of it as a power hour (or two) with a planner who knows how to navigate the behind-the-scenes and bring bold, elevated ideas to life.

Love Notes

CLIENT LOVE

"The best decision we made with wedding planning is hiring Rachel and her team at Odyssey Event Designs. Rachel is truly a godsend, and I can't imagine planning our wedding without her. Our venue was a blank slate, requiring everything to be brought in—bathrooms, catering, tables, tents, etc. Rachel handled it all flawlessly. She seamlessly coordinated every detail, so much so that I felt zero stress on the day of the wedding (which is major as someone who is often very stressed). I was able to fully enjoy the experience, knowing Rachel had everything under control which I could not thank her more for.

She is also not only the kindest person to work with, but also the most organized person I’ve ever met. Every single vendor we worked with couldn’t stop gushing about how amazing Rachel is and how much they enjoy getting to work with her. It felt like planning a wedding with a close friend; every phone call, video chat, and email exchange was not only productive but also enjoyable and fun for us. We both keep saying how we miss our check-ins with Rachel already!

I honestly don’t know how anyone could plan a wedding without Rachel. There were so many details we had talked about and I had forgotten, but Rachel remembered every single thing we had discussed and brought them to life perfectly and beyond what I could have even ever imagined - I was truly in awe with every step of the weekend that Rachel helped plan. On top of that, her graphic design skills are unmatched—she created the most beautiful signs, menus, bar menu, and even custom napkins that everyone loved and were so unique and special to us. It felt like she could actually read our minds and the wedding, every single part of it, was exactly what we wanted and envisioned and I felt really encapsulated us as a couple.

Logistically, everything was flawless. We didn’t have to worry about timing, transportation, or any other coordination the entire weekend. Rachel had it all locked down. Our families and friends felt similarly that they always knew what to do and where to be and when because of Rachel and her team - which made it that we, our families and wedding party, and all our guests were able to truly enjoy the entire weekend. She is also the calmest person ever, which really helped us feel calm throughout the process and the day of, and made sure our families stayed calm too.

We keep saying, ‘This was the best wedding we’ve ever been to, and I can’t believe it was ours,’ and we owe that to Rachel. I cannot recommend her more—thank you for making our dreams come true! If you want to have the most incredible, perfect and amazing wedding - hire Rachel!"

I'm continuously on the lookout for new designs, potential venues, decor inspirations, and a thousand and one other details that will help to enhance my clients' visions.

A brief insight into how I found myself living the dream designing weddings and events:

​

With over fourteen years of experience in the hospitality industry and a degree from the State University of Buffalo in Hospitality and Tourism Management, I ventured out to further my knowledge and received my certificate as a certified wedding planner. Upon receiving my certification I began working within various high end facilities; one that still holds a dear place in my heart, The Mansion on Delaware Avenue. This beautiful high end facility set my standards high right from the start and from there my career had only just begun. To follow my career path click the button below.
