VI. After the Wedding - Relationship Boost Planning Session
Since January 2018, Karolina has done more than 200 consulting calls.
Here’s what a few of those clients had to say:
Elham
“Your support and flexibility made me feel very calm when I was in the midst of the stress of planning. So THANKS for that!”
Andrea & Anders
“Without Karolina we don’t know how we would have made it.”
Melanie & Norbert
“Without your support and advice, we wouldn’t have been able to have the wedding we did! Thank you for everything!”
Christina & Philipp
“The meetings with you were always so nice and really helpful ..after every meeting we were so thrilled and couldn't wait for the big day!!”
Nimeh

Linn & Jonas
Karolina has been magical from day one to our wedding day! She has adapted the meetings/sessions to our schedules and it’s noticeable how much she loves her job! We highly recommend her!

For anyone getting married or being involved in wedding planning.
We have sessions with couples, toastmasters and close family members.
Our couples are either getting married in Scandinavia, planning a destination wedding while living in Sweden or have a connection to Sweden (one being Swedish or wishing to incorporate Swedish traditions/culture into the mix).
-
Yes! It's actually the perfect pre-wedding gift to give to a couple who are in the midst of planning their wedding.
I recommend you give the Stand alone Planning Session as the couple is free to talk about what they need and is likely to be the most helpful.
-
Whomever you want. Typically it’s the people getting married but sometimes they involve another family member, fellow wedding vendor or your toastmasters!
If someone isn’t available for the call, you can get a recording of the session.
-
Nope, the Stand Alone Planning Session can be booked anytime!
I’ve consulted on weddings happening as soon as two weeks away and as far out as two years.
-
Unfortunately, we don't offer day-of coordination.
If you are looking for a wedding coordinator to help you on the day, I will happily save you some googling and reach out to my network of wedding coordinators and planners to see who’s available for your day.
I also frequently consult on weddings that have a coordinator on the vendor team; this works great too since often, those coordinators don’t start working until much closer to the wedding day and you have questions now.
Many times, couples buy the Wedding Planning Session Bundle from us and together we hand over the material to the day-of coordinator hired.
