Destination wedding planning & design

Your wedding is one of the most meaningful celebrations of your life — a day that deserves intentional planning, artistry, and seamless execution.

At Latham Stevens Events, we believe every detail should be tailored to reflect your story, your family, and your legacy.

Our planning and design services are structured as an investment of 12% of your overall wedding budget. This approach ensures that every element — from floral artistry to custom installations and luxury guest experiences — is curated with integrity and excellence.

Most of the weddings reflected in our portfolio are celebrations with an average budget of $175,000.

At this scale, the percentage-based investment structure is the best model for our clients because:

It aligns our work with your vision — the greater the scope of design, logistics, and vendor partnerships, the more resources required to bring it to life.

01

It ensures transparency and fairness — your fee grows in proportion to the scale of your event rather than a flat rate that may not accurately reflect the work involved.

02

It allows us to deliver high-touch service and editorial-quality design, the standard you see throughout our portfolio.

03

Every client receives the same dedicated care, thoughtful guidance, and access to our trusted network of creative partners.

To us, it’s more than just a wedding — it’s forever.

Kind Words

  • Thank you for making our big day so special. We will never forget it!

    Josh and I cannot describe how perfect today was. Latham is genuinely one of the most creative human beings. We are so thankful for today and we love Latham from the bottom of our hearts.

  • Latham created a dream come true for my daughter!!! Our venue was chosen site unseen which of course makes anyone nervous and a little apprehensive. BUT…not everyone has Latham Stevens as their wedding planner!

    All of our planning sessions were zoom calls or emails until we actually met the week of the wedding. Every question we had was answered promptly and with such great guidance. Our entire wedding weekend was stress free and so fun which was entirely the result of Latham and her amazing recommendations and vision! She and my daughter had many conversations about what my daughter wanted (likes and dislikes) and Latham took all that information and created the most intimate and beautiful rehearsal dinner, ceremony, and dinner reception. Latham is a beautiful soul and I would encourage anyone who is at the beginning of wedding planning to utilize and trust her gifts!!!

  • From the start, Latham offered thoughtful suggestions for venues and helped us navigate the planning process with confidence and ease.

    We appreciated her availability, which was especially important as we were planning a destination wedding. In the final week leading up to the big day, Latham truly shined. She coordinated seamlessly with our caterer, photographer, rental company, and florist—ensuring everything came together smoothly. Her calm presence and detailed preparation significantly alleviated the typical stress of the final countdown, allowing us to fully enjoy the experience. We were so pleased with how everything turned out and would highly recommend Latham to anyone looking for a reliable, knowledgeable, and calming wedding planner. She made a huge difference in making our wedding weekend so special!

  • Where to even begin?! Latham is not only an incredible wedding planner—highly detailed oriented, strong creative vision, and well connected with countless great vendors—she is one of the kindest, most genuine and light-hearted people I know!

    Latham worked diligently and collaboratively with us for nine months. She brings a smile to work everyday, along with a commitment to getting the job (whatever crazy task it might be!) done. She was excited by any and all ideas we brought to the table, while keeping us on track, on time, and leading the way in making our dreams a reality. Latham connected us with every vendor we needed from furniture and stage rentals to caterers and entertainers. Latham was also incredibly present and "on" throughout our entire wedding weekend. Lastly, Latham was a funny, calm and empathetic friend to me through the whole process, which meant so much to me! I feel lucky to have worked with Latham on such a special life event, and would enthusiastically recommend her in a heartbeat to anyone starting the process themselves.

  • Choose Latham! Her kindness and consideration extend not only to clients but also to all vendors involved throughout the day.

    When she takes the lead, I'm confident that the day will unfold seamlessly. For a professional who collaborates with you from start to finish, bringing your day to life and enabling you to fully savor special moments, booking Latham is a wise choice.
