Frequently asked

Questions

What is the difference between a Venue Coordinator and a Wedding Planner/Coordinator?

Venue Coordinators and Wedding Planners play different roles and are both very important to the success of your celebration. And yes in almost all cases we do recommend that you have both. Venue Coordinators ensure that what the venue offers their clients is taken care of (the space, perhaps tables and chairs, perhaps meals and bar service), everything else is to be taken care of by the clients and/or their planner. Make sure you have a clear understanding of what exactly they will provide before signing a contract. Wedding Planners are retained by clients to assist with everything else and work together with the venue coordinator/manager. This includes developing a timeline/flow of events from the beginning of the day to the end, designing the space(s) in keeping with your vision, sourcing and vetting your wedding service professionals, logistics, running your ceremony, and much much more. Venue Coordinators and Wedding Planners should work together to ensure the event runs seamlessly. Most venues highly recommend hiring a planner or at least a wedding coordinator to manage your day(s).

What makes Pop the Cork Productions different from every other Wedding and Event Planner?

  • Hospitality is in my blood having worked in the industry since I was sixteen. I am SO lucky to do what I love for a living! I have an inherent desire to help people celebrate life’s most important moments. My industry network, knowledge and experience in the business will most certainly make your celebration the best it can be!
  • Before starting my own wedding and event planning business I produced hundreds of weddings throughout my career in hospitality as well as milestone birthdays and anniversaries, corporate meetings and events, major golf tournaments, concerts, non-profit galas, holiday parties, community events and activities and much more! I am a well-rounded event planner and project manager!
  • Over two decades of operations management experience in high-end private clubs, restaurants and event venues makes it easy for me to jump in at any venue and be a part of the team.
  • Understanding and providing exceptional service – I want to not only meet but exceed your expectations!
  • Success managing multi-million dollar budgets means I can help keep you on track with your priorities and your budget leaving the decision making up to you. It’s your day, your way!
  • I am educated, with a degree in Hotel Management from UNLV
  • I am very detail oriented and yet I can also see the big picture. I’m an idea person that can also see it through to fruition

Do you have a preferred network of vendors you work with regularly or exclusively?

I have a broad network of vetted vendors for all types of services that I will refer from. Every client has a different vision, budget and priorities. I refer vendors to each client based on these criteria. 

Which wedding venues do you work in most often?

There are SO MANY amazing venues in Arizona!! I work with whichever venue the client chooses and enjoy the challenge of learning new facilities. These are some of the amazing venues I have had the good fortune to work with (alphabetical): Blackstone Country Club, Desert Botanical Garden, Desert Highlands Golf Club, Desert Mountain, El Chorro, The Farm at South Mountain, Gainey Ranch Golf Club, Grayhawk Golf Club, Hermosa Inn, Hyatt Regency Scottsdale, L'Auberge de Sedona Resort, Las Sendas Golf Club, McCormick Ranch Golf Club, Mirabel Club, Mountain Shadows Scottsdale Resort, Ocotillo Golf Club, Omni Montelucia, Papago Events, The Paseo Venue, The Phoenician, Phoenix Art Museum, The Royal Palms, Sanctuary Resort, Silverleaf Club, SoHo63, Talking Stick Golf Club, Troon North Golf Club, Westin Kierland Resort, Wigwam Resort and more!

How many weddings does PTCP take on in a year?

I personally will take on a limited number of weddings per year ensuring my clients get the time and attention they so deserve in planning a once in a lifetime celebration. I have a team of associates to allow me to grow the business while maintaining our high standards and levels of service.

Does Pop the Cork travel? Outside of Phoenix? Outside of Arizona?

Yes please! We love to travel! Most of our weddings and events happen within the Phoenix metro area but we are happy to work with you in any state or even worldwide. Many of our couples live outside the Phoenix area but want a destination wedding in Arizona due to our amazing weather. We love destination weddings, Arizona or otherwise!

What is your signature wedding style?

This is YOUR once in a lifetime celebration, not ours. So it’s your day, your way! We love that every wedding celebration is different, it should reflect the couple’s personalities. We are professionals and can bring to life whatever vision you dream up (as long as the budget allows of course). We will assist you in keeping a common thread throughout your vision giving your celebration a cohesive vibe. 

Is Pop the Cork Productions insured?

Yes, we are and LLC and the business carries $1 million dollars of insurance for our protection. We do also encourage our clients to protect themselves with wedding and event insurance and we are happy to share referrals.
