If you are newly engaged or just lost in the overload of information when planning a wedding, you need Shelby! She has stood by so many people, myself included on their wedding day as either a bridesmaid or maid of honor. All of these experiences have given her the expertise of knowing what is necessary, what isn’t, where to start, and how to sort through it all. Shelby was my go to throughout planning my wedding. It could be to ask questions, get advice, or just chat. She is there whatever you need even putting aside her own personal life. She researched with me, pro/conned, and surprised me throughout the planning. From the night my husband proposed, I knew Shelby was the perfect choice as my maid of honor.
When it came to my bachelorette, I told her I wanted it to be relaxing, fun and to feel like a vacation. All I ended up doing was packing my suitcase and showing up. Shelby handled it all – coordinated schedules, booked rooms and dining, etc. As a planner, it was a breath of fresh air! She perfectly balances getting your input but still manages to keep surprises and make it stress free for brides.
My bridal shower was incredible! She gave me three theme options and I picked two, giving her creative freedom with the final choice. It was the cutest, “She Found Her Main Squeeze” with a lemonade bar complete with fancy flavors and fresh fruit garnishes. She had multiple games, pre-prepared tie breakers, prizes and perfectly themed favors. This probably sounds “standard” but the Shelby difference is that she perfectly captures a bride’s personality and vibe, without needing you to give her much.
Don’t even get me started on the wedding day, it is like she has a spidey sense! She just pops up and asks what your need and she is on it. After giving her a few key times, she had a whole timeline planned including schedules for hair and makeup, making the morning of my wedding completely stress free. My hair stylist even commented on how I was the calmest bride she has ever seen. It was all because of Shelby. She took care of things before I even knew, plus she comes with a full tackle box of anything you can imagine, believe me, you name it and she has it with her!
I cannot stress enough that wedding planning comes naturally to her. It doesn’t matter if you have known her for 15 years or 15 minutes, she will take care of you and make sure this is the best time of your life!

I have worked with Shelby to plan a destination bachelorette party, a bridal shower and a wedding. In addition, she planned my own bachelorette party and bridal shower and was there every step of the way on my big day. She works tirelessly to create tailored events that are picture and memory worthy without the stress. She has been my go-to party and event planner for years!
Shelby is extremely detail oriented and won’t stop short of perfection. She listens carefully to all your wants and needs and executes beautifully, without a hitch! If there is any doubt to book with Bach & Bridal, just do it! You won’t regret it!
