How to Choose the Right Package

Ask yourself:

• How many people? 2 people = Elopement. 10-20 = Formal Wedding.
• Do you need legal documents? If yes, go Formal Wedding.
• What's your budget? Start at $500, add extras as needed.
• What matters most? Photos? Dinner? Video? Choose add-ons accordingly.

Add-Ons: Make It Yours

Every package is a starting point. Add what matters to you:

• Film + Drone ($200) — Cinematic video + aerial shots
• Makeup + Hair ($150) — Professional styling
• Romantic Dinner ($150-$250) — Private beach dinner with or without live music
• Live Music ($100) — Violin, guitar, or local musicians
• Prosecco ($20) — Toast to the moment
• Cake ($30) — Special dessert

The Bottom Line

Pick a base package that matches your vision. Add the extras that make it special. That's it. No surprises, no hidden fees.

Pro tip: The "Kate Combo" (makeup + drone + video for $300) is the most popular add-on. It gives you professional styling, cinematic video, and aerial shots — all for less than buying them separately.
