DESIGN AND PLANNING WEDDING SERVICE

WEDDING DESIGN + MANAGEMENT = HOOTENANNY

You’ve tackled the big stuff—your wedding planning is in motion, and things are looking good. But now, you’re ready for backup—someone to refine the details, elevate the design, and make sure the entire day flows effortlessly.

Maybe you’ve been curating a Pinterest board for years, or maybe Pinterest isn’t your thing at all. Either way, you want a wedding that looks as incredible as it feels—and that’s where we come in.

At Contagious Events, we take your ideas, your progress, and your vision, then turn it into a wedding that’s both flawlessly executed and stunningly designed. We’ll fill in the gaps, fine-tune the aesthetics, and ensure everything runs seamlessly—so you and your loved ones can sit back, sip some champagne, and soak in the moment.

And if you’re still missing key vendors—say, a photographer to capture the magic? A floral team for that touch of whimsy? Don’t worry. No matter the vision, we know just the person to help us pull it off.

Need help bringing your vision to life? Let’s make it happen.

IS HOOTENANNY RIGHT FOR YOU?

You jumped into wedding planning headfirst and nailed the big stuff—venue? Check. Caterer? Locked in. But now you’re staring at a Pinterest board full of ideas, wondering how to bring it all together. That’s where we come in.

Hootenanny is perfect for couples who have a vision but need expert guidance to fine-tune the details, round out their vendor team, and pull off a design that feels effortlessly curated (but let’s be real, takes some serious behind-the-scenes magic). We’ll obsess over the details so you don’t have to, ensuring your wedding isn’t just “nice” but next-level stunning.

Unlike other planners, Contagious Events doesn’t lock you into an exclusive vendor list—meaning you have the freedom to choose the pros who vibe with your style, while we help you find the best fit and give you the tools to plan with confidence.

Already have a venue and caterer but need design and management help? Hootenanny is your move.

Still venue shopping? Our Shindig Package might be the better fit.

With our wedding management and design expertise, we’ll take your ideas from scattered to seamless—because your wedding should be jaw-dropping, not just “figured out.”

I cannot recommend Joe and Contagious Events highly enough. Joe was able to meet with my son and his fiancé and glean from them what sort of feel and look they wanted for their event before they could even articulate it themselves. His organization and attention to detail was flawless. When we experienced a glitch at our venue, Joe stepped in quickly and masterfully and managed to shield us from the fallout. The result was a wedding that was personal, stunning, and joyful. Thanks to Joe, my husband and I were able to enjoy the day instead of worrying. If you have a celebration in the near future, this is the outfit you want to hire. Period.

UPDATE: How great is Joe? We hired him for our daughter's wedding 2+ years later, and I'm happy to report that he is still the gold standard for wedding planners.
