Our Modern Mission is:
To craft custom occasions that feel like coming home!
We infuse who you are, those you love, and all you really want into every special element so you can cherish every single second.

Our Future World Vision is:
Building a business that's rooted in authenticity & community. We adore the neighborhoods we work in, treasure the vendors we partner with & cherish every client who chooses us not because that's the only path to success, but because it's the only path worth taking.

The world of weddings should feel open & approachable to all. Since that hasn't always been so, we're committed to doing things differently.

Whether you host, work or attend an event we're involved in, we aim to make you feel completely & wholly at home, just by being yourself.

Weddings are our business, but the love we have for empowering people to embrace the pure happiness they deserve? That's our lasting legacy.

Stress-free Wedding Day!!!

Late in our planning process, Blair and her team came highly recommended to us by our venue. We can see exactly why they were recommended and couldn't be happier with BW Studios. They were ready to jump in and help us with anything we needed help with. They are extremely responsive and detail oriented. We also looooved using Aisle Planner, which is the software they provide you to help manage your to do list, timeline, and calendar. They helped us to feel extremely stress-free going into the wedding weekend.

On the day of, we were so calm and able to enjoy the day with our friends and family knowing that the team had everything under control! We had run out of tequila after the cocktail hour, and Neva happily ran out to purchase more!
At the end of the night every single thing was packed up and organized for easy clean up.

Truly could not recommend working with BW Studios more!!! Thank you to Blair, Neva, and Elly - you helped make our day more perfect than we could have ever imagined!

Absolutely recommend!!!

I can't say enough good things about Blair & team, we would absolutely recommend!! She was so much more than a day of coordinator - kept us on track with booking vendors, helped guide us with both big and small decisions, and so helpful in communicating with vendors in advance. In all honesty, we had no doubt things would run smoothly on the day of and Blair's calm and confident guidance was a huge part of that. We are so grateful!

Do yourself a favor and book BW Studio!

Book her right now! Blair is worth every penny! Blair is an absolute joy to work with. I had never stood up in a wedding and I don't have any female family members so I had no help with my wedding and didn't know what I was doing. Blair was so incredibly helpful. No question was too small or too silly. She really was the back bone of the event. She made sure so many things were taken care of behind the scenes. I could not recommend her more.

Team

Neva Wright
Neva Wright
Assistant Planner

Neva's favorite wedding moments are the hands down the first look and the speeches! That first look is just so priceless and heartwarming. The love and adornment in each other's eyes is so moving, and she tears up every time!

Speeches are just so much fun! Learning more about the celebrated couple, laughing at the funny quirks, and hearing about their loved ones' memories helps everyone connect more to the couple and the wedding party.

Neva’s favorite drink is an Old Fashioned, complete with custom sphere ice cube.

BEYOND BW STUDIO - You can find Neva taking care of her plants or hanging out with her family.

Samantha Pineda
Samantha Pineda
Assistant Planner

Samantha’s favorite wedding moment is when everyone stands for the Bride right before she is revealed to walk down the aisle. The dress is fluffed, everyone is holding their breath in anticipation, and everything you planned for is finally happening!

She also lives for the big group dances that get everyone out on the dance floor! Samantha does request that everyone stop playing the song, “September” in January. ;)

Samantha longs for events with an outdoor element and bring on the guest count. The bigger, the better! After 2 seasons with BW Studio, and as a newly minted bride herself, Samantha will cheer your nuptials with a specialty cocktail.

BEYOND BW STUDIO - You can typically find Sam singing, baking, playing with her dog, traveling, or trying new restaurants with her husband & friends.

Markus Woerfel
Markus Woerfel
Assistant

Markus is a trained small business doer of all things. He’s Blair’s go-to man and personal hype team. German, analytical and methodical, he’ll be there to make sure the day is streamlined, tidy, and always on time. Blair couldn’t have done all of this without him…and he totally knows it! (And yes, he will definitely talk about sneakers with you.)

BEYOND BW STUDIO - When Markus isn’t busy hustling with the team, he’s playing video games, working in the garage, or building a new computer.
