Double Blessing Events

We're not just your typical wedding planners who plan a wedding for you, and that's it. We're here to do Kingdom work! And that means not just walking with you through the planning process so you have an amazing wedding, but we continue to walk with you even into your marriage so that you're equipped for a healthy, Christ-centered, fulfilling relationship.

Through the hundreds of weddings that we've done, we've realized that planning a wedding is only one crucial piece to enjoying every moment of your big day! The other two necessary pieces are working through your emotions (because we know wedding planning is bringing up all sorts of feelings for you!) and preparing your marriage (because that's ultimately what this is all about).

1. Preparing Your Wedding
‍
We're all about keeping the planning process as easy, simple, and streamlined as possible! So we break the planning process up into 3 different phases: Planning, Design, and Execution. During the Planning phase, this is when we're focusing on clarifying your wedding vision, creating your budget, and hiring your vendors. The Design phase is when we swoon over color palettes, themes, and florals so that everything looks cohesive and absolutely gorgeous! The Execution phase is all about finalizing those last-minute details, creating the floor plan, confirming details with vendors, and making every part of your day go off without a hitch!

2. Preparing Your Heart
‍
Wedding planning brings up a lot of insecurities, doesn't it? You're feeling the pressure to people please, anxiety from wanting everything to be perfect, insecurity about asking your family and friends for help...or stress because they're offering too MUCH help...All of these emotions seem to come out of the woodworks, don't they? Feelings you might not have realized were even there!

The Lord is using your wedding as an opportunity to gently reveal parts of your heart that haven’t been fully surrendered to Him. And He's bringing these insecurities up at the perfect time! Why? Because you’re about to get married! You’re about to become one flesh with your future husband, and He wants you to address these issues before going into marriage. If you bury them or try to ignore them, they will come back up eventually, but they won’t just be affecting you at that point in time. They're going to affect your future husband MUUUUCH more when you're their wife than when you were their girlfriend or fiancé.

And until you address these insecurities, they're going to keep you from enjoying every moment, both during the planning process and on the wedding day. You could have the most flawless, amazing, magazine-worthy wedding ever, but if you're bogged down by these internal feelings, then you won't be able to enjoy any of it! And it's going to hinder your excitement and preparation going into marriage.

This is why during the planning process, we have one-on-one prayer sessions with you to help work through these emotions, because trying to face your feelings on your own can feel like opening up a huge can of worms. But we work with you in these sessions to help you find freedom from burdens that you aren't meant to carry. Freedom from lies that you've learned to believe over the years. Freedom from those critical, accusatory voices that have burrowed their way deeply into your heart. These sessions help you find freedom in Christ so you can release these fears and insecurities and walk into your wedding day and marriage without this heavy baggage.

3. Preparing Your Marriage
‍
This is the third essential piece to enjoying every moment of your day. You wouldn't even be having a wedding unless you were getting married! This is what it's ultimately about. And as your wedding planners, we not only equip you for a great wedding, but we equip you for a great marriage, as well.

The way we do this is through our Christian premarital counseling program! Tom and Debbie Green lead all our premarital counseling sessions, and they've helped over 100 couples build Christ-centered, fulfilling marriages. By discussing God's heart for marriage, the influence of family and friends, communication, conflict resolution, finances, and sexual intimacy, you and your future husband will have a strong foundation for a healthy, joyful, and long-lasting marriage before the wedding day.

By having our support with these different pieces (your wedding, your heart, and your marriage), you don’t have to navigate the overwhelming logistics, the emotional rollercoaster of wedding planning, or the unknowns of marriage on your own. We're not just here to make sure your venue is perfect on the wedding day, but to ensure that your emotional and spiritual health are, too.

‍Working with planners who understand these three parts of planning guarantees more than just a beautiful wedding; it puts you on a positive, forward trajectory where you are confidently equipped for a fulfilling, God-honoring marriage. We're here to guide you through all of it, every step of the way!

Girl, we’ve got you! We're Chelsey, Danae, and the Double Blessing Team: wedding planners and coordinators who love Jesus and His design for marriage! We (Chelsey and Danae), are identical twin sisters who created this business at our local Starbucks in Richardson, TX. Collectively, our team has helped plan or execute over 300 weddings since 2013, always with the intention of glorifying the Lord and strengthening our couples' walks with Him. Our whole heart behind being wedding planners is to take the burden off your shoulders so that you can focus on this amazing covenant you're about to make!

Your wedding day is so important, and we are totally here for it! (That's our main job as wedding planners, after all!) But for us as believers, it's ultimately about your marriage and building a strong foundation for a Christ-centered, fulfilling relationship. Your wedding day is just the icing on the cake where we can celebrate this amazing thing that God is doing! :) And with us at your side, you'll have the freedom to prioritize your marriage while truly enjoying every moment of your special day.‍

‍Saying that we're type A is an understatement! Chelsey had her entire wedding planned in a Google Drive folder before she even met her husband, and Danae had a VERY detailed Google Doc for her wedding day itinerary down to the SECOND. No joke! We even have type A brides tell us, "Wow, you're even more type A than ME!" We take that as a huge compliment. ;)‍
