A small wedding is not a lesser wedding. It is a wedding with the guest list you actually wanted.
You can have it in your own garden, in ours, or somewhere we find for you. We book rental properties and venues on your behalf, plan the day around whichever you pick, and run it when it comes.
If you want the whole thing planned rather than just officiated, that is a service too. Timeline, layout, suppliers, and somebody keeping the day on track while you get married.
Best for
- Ceremonies at home or in a family member's garden
- Couples who want us to find and book the venue
- Rental properties, ranches, and weekend houses
- Anybody who wants the day planned, not just officiated
- Couples who want the money spent on the day, not the venue
Step by step
How it works
- 1
Find the space
Use your own, use ours, or tell us what you picture and we will find and book somewhere that fits it.
- 2
Walk the space
We visit, or you send photos and measurements, and we plan the layout.
- 3
Plan the timing
We pick a ceremony time that works with the light and with your day.
- 4
Rehearsal
A walkthrough so everyone knows where to stand.
- 5
The ceremony
We bring sound for vows and music, run the ceremony, and file your license.
After you book
The part that comes before the day
The planner opens straight away
Guest list, RSVPs, schedule and registry, all in your portal. It comes with every booking — there is nothing to add.
Open the plannerYour date is held
The deposit holds the day. The balance is settled from your portal, or on the day, whichever suits you.
See your bookingsPhotographs land in your vault
Anything we shoot arrives in a private gallery that belongs to your booking, and it is yours to keep.
See the vaultWorth adding
Bought alongside the booking, never instead of it. Add-ons are paid in full — no deposit arithmetic. The website is the one exception: 60% now, the rest when it goes live.
Host the reception too
The gathering after the ceremony, handled end to end: a chef cooks the meal fresh, the spread is delivered and set, and the food and drinks are ordered for your guest count. Estimated now, settled like travel — part with your deposit, the rest with your final balance.
Your reception figure is an estimate built from your guest count. The food and drinks are real grocery orders, and you are responsible for what they actually cost: if the order comes in at or under the estimate, the estimate stands; if it comes in higher, we bill you the difference before the order is placed. The reception follows the same cancellation terms as the booking it belongs to.
Drone coverage
Caedis AerialsAerial footage of the ceremony and the location, cut into your film.
Flown by a licensed operator with their own insurance and their own kit. Weather and airspace permitting, which we check the week before and tell you either way.
Same day edit
A cut edit in your hands the night of the wedding.
For couples who want something to post or show at the reception. The full gallery still follows on the standard timeline.
Three day turnaround
Everything edited and delivered within three days.
Standard delivery is seven days and costs nothing extra.
Raw footage and photographs
Every frame we shot, unedited and uncut.
Raws are wiped from our cards and drives seven days after delivery unless this is bought, so it cannot be added later. Buy it up front or with the gallery.
A flower girl for the aisle
TerahTerah walks ahead of you with the petals, for couples who have nobody for it.
Our daughter Terah is four. She takes it very seriously. Her basket, her petals and a dress matched to your colors are all included, so there is nothing for you to buy or organize — outfitting a flower girl of your own generally starts around $140 for the dress and accessories alone. Offered only where the timeline suits a four-year-old; we will tell you honestly if it does not.
Event website
Zathena VenturesYour own site for the day: details, gift registry, RSVPs, and the gallery.
Every booking includes our wedding planner — guest list, RSVPs, schedule and registry in your portal. This publishes it: everything you planned becomes a real page your guests can visit, and their RSVPs land straight back in your planner. Guests see the photographs watermarked and can buy a clean copy of any one of them. Includes the domain and the first year of hosting; $50 a year after that to keep it up. 60% is due when you order, the rest once your site is connected to its domain and live.
Live music
A DJ or live musician for the ceremony and the party after, playing your song list.
You build the song list in your portal — the processional, the first dance, the songs that must and must not be played — and whoever we send arrives knowing all of it. Covers the ceremony and up to four hours after. Booked like a service: 60% holds the date, the balance follows the day. DFW wedding DJs run $800 to $1,500; live musicians for a ceremony alone start around $300.
Custom event merch
Shirts, hats and sweaters carrying a photograph from your own day.
Printed to order once your gallery lands, so the image is one you have actually seen. Ordered from your media vault, priced per item, plus a one-time print-setup fee for each photograph — custom artwork is prepared once and used once, which is why studio designs never carry that fee.
Other services
Do this for a living?
We are three people and we turn work away. We are looking for Officiant, Media Team — photo and film, Planner, Scheduling Coordinator, Catering, Chef and Music — DJ or musician, and what each one pays is written down before you apply.
