ABOUT US

BEHIND THE SCENES

I’m a romantic at heart, and a planner by design. There’s nothing I love more than helping couples create a wedding day that feels like them—beautiful, joyful, and entirely unforgettable.

ABOUT ME

BERENICE RATCLIFF

I didn’t plan on becoming a wedding planner. I just said yes to helping a friend with her big day, and something clicked. My background in art and photography gave me the eye for design. Planning gave me the purpose: helping people feel cared for, seen, and fully present for one of the most meaningful days of their lives.

Nearly a decade later, I still tear up at every wedding.

I’ve planned everything from intimate elopements to 200-guest tented celebrations. But what I love most is the journey—getting to know my couples, earning their trust, and watching them light up when everything comes together.

Clients often tell me I became more than a planner—I became a friend. And I can’t think of a better compliment. Because wedding planning isn’t just about logistics and layouts (though we’re very good at those). It’s about having someone in your corner who listens, leads with grace, and makes sure you never feel alone in the process.

My favorite part? When the night winds down and a couple says, “We had the best time of our lives.” That’s when I know we got it just right.

If you’re dreaming of a wedding that’s full of intention and love—planned with clarity, care, and zero unnecessary stress—I’d be honored to help you create it.

Let’s make something beautiful, together.

02 | HUMAN

I am married to the best guy I know! I say he was worth the wait, and I couldn’t be happier to spend my life with him! He is kind, loving, loves to dance, and makes me laugh!

06 | PART OF MY JOB

The moment when they step away for their photos and they look back with a smile on their face.

01 | FAVORITE PLACES

I love the ocean! That’s something I miss from California, but having lived in New York for almost a decade, the city is my happy place!

03 | SCREEN TIME

Favorite TV Show: White Collar [I might or might not have watched it way too many times to quote from it]

Favorite Movie: Hitch, Pride & Prejudice, and yes, all the bridal movies.

When unloading the car, regardless of its contents, I make it my challenge to carry everything in one load. What can I say, I like to use my time wisely and get things done!

That goes the same for unloading the dryer and carrying it upstairs!
