Office hours

Education

With so much conflicting information about wedding planning, it can be confusing, misleading, and often very stressful answering questions (both big and small). Whether you are a budding planner (or an established planner wanting another viewpoint), a vendor building a business in the industry, or a couple trying to plan your own wedding, this ‘ask anything’ session gives you the opportunity to obtain clarity from an established planner using the knowledge and expertise she has built over years of hands-on experience.

Reminiscent of office hours with a college professor, this offering from Festoons & Flourishes allows aspiring planners, wedding vendors, and couples (especially those not planning to hire a full-service wedding planner), a low-stakes opportunity to ask Ashley anything.

Book Your Time with Ashley

I have seen firsthand the professionalism, dedication, and compassion that Ashley puts into her clients and vendors....She was able to communicate her basic practice in a cohesive and understandable content that instills personal confidence. I look forward to more conversations and mentoring sessions with Ashley and continual learning from the best planner I know!

Industry Mentoring & Guidance:

We enjoy working with our event industry community both in Michigan and across the US to offer our knowledge and assistance as they grow and establish their businesses. From other planners wishing to gain knowledge in their field, venues and companies breaking ground or hoping to draw more events to their spaces, and vendors hoping to expand their offerings and attract more business, we enjoy sharing our knowledge on a broad range of topics to continue to elevate our industry.

Ashley was incredibly welcoming and took the time to review my existing packages and contract, offering valuable edits and insights. She answered every question I had without hesitation, never withholding information or industry knowledge. One statement she made that truly resonated with me was, 'I want to share all of my knowledge because you are the next generation of planners—why wouldn’t I want to help you?' That sentiment perfectly reflects who she is. I gained so much from just one session....
