Venue scouting & shortlists
We learn your vision, guest count, and budget, then surface the venues that genuinely fit — and quietly rule out the ones that don't.
An independent wedding & event concierge
We scout the venues, gather the proposals, and compare them honestly — then help you coordinate every vendor. One trusted guide, working for you, so the biggest decision of the year feels clear instead of overwhelming.
Email-first — we coordinate several venues at once and reply within one business day.
What we do
Planning a wedding means comparing options you've never had to compare before. We do that legwork with you — and translate it into plain language.
We learn your vision, guest count, and budget, then surface the venues that genuinely fit — and quietly rule out the ones that don't.
Every venue prices differently. We put their proposals side by side — what's truly included, what's extra — so you compare apples to apples.
Catering, photography, DJ, florals, coordination. We map what's bundled versus à la carte and where the real value — and savings — actually sit.
No surprises. We track the full picture — service charges, taxes, minimums, deposits — so the number you plan for is the number you pay.
The process
A relaxed conversation — your date (or the flexibility you have), guest count, style, and budget.
We reach out to the venues that fit and collect real proposals and availability on your behalf.
We lay the options side by side, flag the fine print, and give you honest, unbiased guidance.
You choose. We help coordinate the details and vendors so everything lines up for the day.
Why Northstar
Most couples plan a wedding exactly once, against vendors who do it every day. We close that gap. Because we're independent — paid by you, not the venues — our only job is to find you the best fit and the clearest value.
“I thought I had to become an expert overnight. Northstar just… handled the comparing. We saw everything clearly and picked with zero second-guessing.”
About
I started Northstar after watching too many couples fall in love with a venue before they understood what they were actually signing up for. I spend my days talking to venues and vendors so my clients don't have to — asking the direct questions, reading the fine print, and translating it all into a simple, honest comparison.
Think of me as the friend who happens to know exactly what to ask. No pressure, no jargon — just a steady hand pointed at the right decision.
