WHAT MAKES OUR PLANNING PROCESS UNIQUE:
Wedding planning doesn’t need to be stressful. In fact, it can (and should) be exciting and fun! Our goal is to give our clients a relaxed and enjoyable planning experience and to make this entire process as easy as possible.
With our international and destination clients we understand the challenges of planning from afar, and know the importance of over communicating all of the event details with the entire team. In order to do this effectively, we give our brides access to our incredible suite of online planning tools so that they can stay up to date with the progress of their event from anywhere in the world.
Our goal is that all of our brides feel relaxed and calm from “Yes!” to “I do!” knowing that they have an extraordinary team of planners and designers behind them every step of the way!

INTERNATIONAL & DESTINATION WEDDINGS FAQ
We are a national team with local roots meaning that we are used to connecting with planners, vendors, and venues outside of the geographic areas where we live and plan! This is a usual part of our business structure so we know what to look or (and what to avoid), as well as how to properly vet the potential vendors and venues that we’ll be working with on your wedding day.
We have created a custom package specific to the needs of destination clients planning an event either at home or abroad. This package provides the specific support, guidance, and tools you’ll need to ensure an enjoyable, stress-free planning process, especially if you’re planning your event from afar.

Absolutely! Design is one of our favorite parts of what we do and we’re thrilled to be able to share this aspect of the planning process with you. It is so much fun to take our clients’ vision and bring it to life in a new space–especially if that space is in a different country! When you add in the local charm of an international destination, our creativity takes over and that’s when we are able to create magic for our clients.
During the design process we’ll work with you to create an overall design scheme that perfectly captures your personal style, and then we’ll infuse those elements throughout your wedding day in order to create a custom feel for your event. We know how to design a beautiful event, but our goal is to help you create an extraordinary experience for your guests by combining beautiful details and sentimental touches from start to finish. That is the key to creating an unforgettable celebration and it’s our ultimate goal for all of our couples.
ince most of the planning will take place virtually, we really prioritize timely communication with our destination clients. You can anticipate a response within 24-48 hours Monday-Thursday when we are in the office.
With this service you can also expect that we will be checking in weekly via email as well as scheduling “face-to-face” via video chats on a monthly basis to ensure that we’re efficiently using our time and able to provide the comprehensive support you need at each step in the planning process.
No, we do not charge by the hour. Due to the unique needs of a destination or international event we will determine the level of support necessary and assess a flat fee at the beginning of the planning process that will include unlimited communication and will not increase as we get closer to the wedding.
For international events, or events where we do not have a local Chancey Charm planner, our clients are responsible for the cost of travel and accommodations for their planner(s).
We have planned destination weddings for clients both domestically as well as internationally. We’ve been in the industry working within a national, and oftentimes global network of professionals for years, so we have the know-how and experience to navigate a new destination with ease.
We also have a pretty long wish list of event locations we’ve saved to our Pinterest boards, so definitely reach out to us about your dream wedding destination because we’re more than up to the challenge!
(For a full list of the venues we have worked at domestically feel free to head to our locations page. And keep scrolling for a full our destination wedding wishlist).
