I’m Arielle Fera.
I’m so happy you're here!
It’s my heart to serve you well + that goes beyond providing a stress-free, extremely organized planning + design process for you. I take it a step further + truly believe serving you well means I am always available for you, you’re treated like family + I work my hardest to make your wedding + happiness my main priority.
Creativity fuels me, planning is my passion and serving others is my heart’s desire. There is nothing that brings me more joy than getting to know you and creating a celebration worthy of your love.
I am a certified wedding planner, with over a decade of experience in the wedding industry. My industry knowledge and relationships with the area's best wedding vendors makes me an invaluable resource for you. I'm an organized creative, which I've been told is a rare quality. I love to create as much as I love spreadsheets and timelines!
I fell in love with wedding planning when I had the privilege of planning and designing every detail of my own wedding 10 years ago. Meticulously sourcing the perfect details, choosing flowers and tasting cakes, the whole process was amazing. It was the best year and day of my life and the catalyst for Arielle Fera Events.
I want you to love your wedding and the entire process as much as I did. I personally invest my time in you to make sure that’s exactly what happens! I’m your personal planner, trusted guide and sound advisor. I work so that you are stress-free, encouraged and confident knowing that you have a plan and direction in place for your wedding. It is my goal to make you feel taken care of, understood and involved in the planning and design process but not overwhelmed or consumed by it. You will be confident in the selections that you make because of my guidance and at ease knowing that I will bring it all together for you.
You will love my big heart, my creative eye and my undivided attention!
When I’m not working on projects for Arielle Fera Events, you can find me spending time with the loves of my life, my husband Alex + our two daughters.
I cannot wait to meet you and help you along your journey towards husband and wife!
Love,Arielle
Marcie
Stylist + Team Assistant
-
Marcie is also my mama. First I credit God + my husband for this business of mine but tied for first would be this woman right here. Years ago when I started planning my business, it was her encouragement that got me through those feelings of doubt, it was her push that got me to the finish line.
Marcie is exceptionally creative; she has beautiful taste + undoubtedly the most selfless person I know. And, I am convinced that no one knows more about the wedding industry than her.
On wedding days, Marcie is the reason your flatware is perfectly set, your taper candles are meticulously straight + your favors are beautifully arranged. She is the reason our team runs so smoothly on wedding days.
On your wedding day, you will love Marcie’s heart, be blessed by her motherly instincts + appreciate her attention to detail.
Christine
Planner + Coordinator
-
Christine is honestly one of the best people that God has ever brought into my life. Christine is incredibly smart, meticulously organized + genuinely selfless with a heart of pure gold. And, I don’t think there is a problem that Christine cannot solve.
Our couples have described Christine like this... “Christine is a true gem, and everything you're looking for in a wedding planner. The first thing you will notice about Christine is how smart, attentive, organized and detail oriented she is. She couples those attributes with even more personable ones. A friend that you can count on, a “sister” that you can trust + bond with.
“On our wedding day Christine was omnipresent. She was everywhere: Making sure I was taken care of, coordinating with vendors, delivering boutonnieres, ensuring and impressing everyone she came in to contact with. My husband and I went through "Christine Withdrawal" until weeks after the wedding.”
Christine serves as a planner for AFE working with her own AFE month of couples. For those couples that book Christine as their month of coordinator, you’ll begin working together six weeks before your big day. By getting to know you and the plans that you have made Christine executes them flawlessly on your wedding day. She ties up all of the details, puts together your wedding day itinerary, confirms with your vendors and oversee every aspect of your rehearsal and wedding. Just to name a few things - so much more goes into this service.
On wedding days, when Christine is not serving her own AFE couples, Christine serves the AFE team as wedding coordinator. She works tirelessly with me + our team to ensure every logistical detail of your wedding is running as planned + when problems arise she is five steps ahead already solving them.
I adore + value Christine and I know you will too.
Kelly
designer + planner
-
To know Kelly is to love Kelly. She is the type of person, that the first time you meet her you instantly feel comfortable + feel like you have known her your whole life. She is genuine, caring and incredibly funny. Not to mention she has an incredible sense of style... I credit her for that leopard print midi skirt I have hanging in my closet.
Some of our past brides have said things like “I don’t know how I would have made it through the planning + design process without Kelly’s optimism + cheering me along.” Others have said things like when “I first met Kelly, it instantly felt like I was working with my best friend, she totally got me from the start.”
Kelly serves as a designer for AFE working with her own AFE design clients. Design encompasses the overall look and feel of your wedding - think all things pretty. Kelly conceptualizes a design plan based on your vision (or lack there of), recommends + works with your creative team to bring the vision to life and on the day of your wedding she along with our team executes the design plan + styles your wedding in that beautiful, romantic AFE signature style. You get to enjoy the immense beauty that surrounds you.
When Kelly is not serving her own AFE couples, you will find her working along side of me + our team on the day of your wedding to bring all the plans (logistical + design) to life!
Kelly is a dream maker and her favorite part about wedding days is seeing you cry happy tears when you see your wedding design in real life. If I had to choose one thing that distinguishes AFE, I would humbly say it is the fact that we care deeply for our couples. Our whole team works hard and cares for your wedding as if it was our own.
Out of all the amazing qualities that Kelly holds, it is her caring heart that I respect the most + I know you will too.
