What Does it Mean to Be a Tapestry Couple?

At Tapestry Event Co., we make huge efforts in curating your wedding planning experience. We want it to be equitable, empowering, and intentional in every step, between every partnership. We LOVE the event-planning aspect of wedding planning, the throwing, running, and designing your marriage celebration, but we are deeply passionate about how the process affects that celebration and brings it to life. We’ve put together a little overview of what it means to be a Tapestry couple and how we bring your values to the forefront during this journey.

YOU KNOW YOU’RE A TAPESTRY COUPLE WHEN…

…you love the outdoors and have a deep respect for Mother Nature.

We don’t care if you are an experienced backpacker or a Sunday stroller, we want to invite you to bring the Earth into your celebration, whether through florals, your venue, or planned activities with a leave no trace touch. 

…you love adventure and experiencing new things.

Whatever form that takes, whether you are foodies out on the town or living that vanlife, we want to bring that sense of adventure into your day or guest experience. For some this means eloping in a new place or creating a bonding experience with their wedding party. However this speaks to you, we want to bring that adrenaline, dopamine, and excitement to your day.

…you are passionate about your community.

You are thoughtful about the people around you and the bonds that bring you together. This may show up as a close-knit tribe of friends, deep roots in a town, devotion to a sports team, or a mindfulness about small businesses. This may show up as couples involved with their family or couples involved with all their pets. A sense of community helps us build your event and bring together all the artisans and vendors who contribute to it.

…you are open to personal reflection.

During our planning process, we invite our couples to take moments of reflection with each other to identify values, reactions, or feelings towards aspects of their marriage celebration. We instigate deep conversations and ask you to look inward. A commitment to this process and the foundation it will lay for your marriage is key to the Tapestry experience. 

…you are intentional in your choices and aware of your ripple effect.

You are conscious about the businesses you support, the way you treat others, and how the words you speak hold power. Throughout our relationship together, we encourage decisions made with intrinsic motivation so that they are aligned with the values you want to support, the communities you want to lift up, and the causes that are important to you.

YOU KNOW TAPESTRY IS YOUR PLANNING TEAM WHEN…

…you want your celebration to be about your values and culture of love!

We love amplifying the story of our couples through intimate and thoughtful details. Our celebrations are all about communicating what your marriage means to your community (in weddings) or concentrating your relationship with intimacy (in elopements).

…you want a support system of thoughtful human beings with their eye on unexpected logistics with a Plan A, B, and C.

Whether that’s a last minute storm, a vendor emergency, or a global pandemic, we’ve got you.

…you want to be considerate and mindful of the vendors and contributors to your day.

We build our business on the basis of respect and collaboration. We hope that you can continue that legacy as we work together to plan your day.

…you have a vision or essence of your celebration that you are excited about and invested in.

We want to co-create that with you and love to see the passion manifest throughout the process. We invite you to take ownership over the pieces that give you joy, to share responsibility for the elements that challenge you, and to hand-off the aspects that suck away your energy.

..you are committed to the journey of planning.

If you are a couple who wants their planning process to be a contributing factor to their marriage day, then we are the right planners for you. We weigh the final product equally to the practice of co-creating your day.

…you want to throw a celebration, not a party.

Your marriage day isn’t just an opportunity to get smashed, though we won’t hold the enthusiasm against you; it’s an intricate ceremonious celebration of your love and the beginning of the huge commitment you are making to one another.

…you are ready to accept our help, support, and advice while you balance all of the other elements already happening in your life. You want to be guided by stewards of the PNW and thoughtful celebrations.

TLDR: Tapestry couples are clear about their values and love the outdoors. They want their marriage celebration to reflect their relationship with intentional details in the ceremony and throughout the decor. Most importantly, they are willing to dig deep and bring their full selves to the planning process. We are unafraid to ask you to come forward and create brave spaces for you to share your truths as we work together.
