FAQs
How many team members will be at our event?
Great question! You’ll always have a lead planner on site. For most weddings up to about 120 guests at one venue, we staff a lead plus one assistant. If your guest count is higher, there’s a room flip, multiple locations, or a more complex program, we’ll add another assistant (roughly one team member per -50 guests). Large or multi-venue celebrations may have 3-4 team members. Private events scale similarly based on setup and timeline needs. We’ll confirm your exact team in your proposal no surprises, just the right support for a seamless day.
Do you manage the whole event day?
Ummm Hello! YES! We’re your lead team from first vendor arrival to the final send-off. We build and run the timeline cue-to-cue, direct setup, coordinate with your venue and vendors, line up the ceremony, manage photo and reception cues, handle room flips, and quietly solve any hiccups so you can just hug your people and dance while having a cocktail or two! You’ll have a lead planner (and assistants as needed), plus couple care all day bustles, bouquets, water/snacks, and breathe-breaks.
Do you manage teardown, returns, and tip distribution?
Absolutely! We’ve got you! Within your package (and your venue’s rules), we handle teardown, pack and label your décor, double check rental counts, and coordinate vendor pickups/returns. We’ll also share a simple tipping guide ahead of time and, if you’d like, discreetly pass out your pre-labeled envelopes at the end of the event so you can enjoy your event stress-free!
Do you support multicultural, interfaith, and LGBTQ+ celebrations?
We love and welcome all! As an LGBTQ+ owner who also walks in my faith, I believe love looks like radical hospitality respecting your pronouns, honoring your traditions, and creating a safe, joy-filled planning space for everyone.
What areas do you serve, and do you travel?
We happily serve up to 50 miles from downtown Orlando with no travel fee. If your celebration is farther, we’ll add a travel/lodging fee based on mileage and distance right to your final invoice and outline it upfront.
Are you insured and licensed?
Yes! Gro By Love Events is a licensed business and fully insured. We carry general and professional liability coverage and can provide a Certificate of Insurance (COI) upon request plus we’re happy to add your venue as an additional insured. We also require all partner venues and vendors to be licensed and insured.
How do retainers, installments, and payment schedules work?
Our payment plan is simple: a 30% non-refundable retainer is due at signing, then we tailor installments to each couple. The only rule is that your final payment is due 7 days before the event—for both weddings and private events.
Do you work with all venues or only preferred partners?
We adore our preferred partners, but we’re vendor-neutral. Choose the venue and vendors you feel best with we’ll collaborate seamlessly. Our only requirement: everyone is properly licensed and insured.
Do you take more than one event per day/weekend?
As an Orlando wedding planner, we accept only one wedding per weekend guaranteeing focused support for your celebration.
