Why Weddings by Stephanie Is Northeast Florida’s Trusted Choice for Stress-Free Celebrations

Your wedding day deserves more than a checklist and last-minute fixes. It deserves a calm, experienced advocate who knows the local venues, vendors, and logistics of Northeast and Central Florida so you can actually enjoy the day you planned. At Weddings by Stephanie, we’ve spent more than three decades helping couples turn their vision into a seamless celebration; from the first consultation through the final dance.

Who We Are: Decades of Florida Wedding Expertise

Weddings by Stephanie has been serving couples across Northeast and Central Florida since 1996. Owner and lead planner Stephanie Mazzeo brings a rare combination of local knowledge, formal training, and hands-on day-of leadership. We are a David Tutera Preferred Vendor, and Stephanie holds multiple professional credentials: Certified Bridal Consultant with Bridal Accents Ltd., Certified Wedding Planner with The Wedding Academy, and the Professional Bridal Consultant™ designation from the Association of Bridal Consultants.

We work with intimate elopements and larger celebrations alike. Whether you’re planning in Palm Coast, Flagler Beach, St. Augustine, Daytona Beach, Bunnell, or surrounding communities, our focus stays the same: local expertise, vetted professionalism, and dedicated support so nothing falls through the cracks.

Our Approach: A Committed Advocate From Start to Finish

Many couples feel overwhelmed by decisions, timelines, and vendor coordination. Our unique approach ensures you have a consistent partner by your side. We listen first, then guide you with clear recommendations based on your priorities, guest count, venue, and style, rather than a one-size-fits-all template.

We offer three primary levels of support so you can choose exactly the help you need:

• Sparkle and Shine – Day-of Coordination (our most popular option): Ideal for couples who have handled most of the planning and now want a professional to manage the timeline, vendors, and flow on the wedding day itself. Includes pre-wedding coordination, rehearsal support, and on-site presence so you can stay present in the moment.
• Love in Bloom – Partial Wedding Planning: For couples who want collaborative help with vendor selection, design direction, contract reviews, and timeline development while still staying involved.
• Love Story Complete – Full-Service Wedding Planning: Comprehensive planning and design from early stages through day-of execution, including budget guidance, vendor curation, and seamless coordination.
• Just the Two of Us – Ceremony Only / Elopement: A focused option for couples seeking a meaningful ceremony without a full reception.

Starting investments are shared transparently on our website (day-of coordination from $1,100+, partial planning from $1,850+, full-service from $2,550+, and ceremony-only options from $650+), with final pricing based on guest count, locations, hours, and specific needs.

What Sets Us Apart: Local Knowledge + Certified Professionalism

After more than 30 years of Florida weddings, we understand the practical realities of this region; seasonal weather considerations, popular venues from beaches to historic spaces to country clubs, reliable vendor relationships, and the timelines that keep a day on track. We don’t just manage a timeline; we anticipate issues before they become problems and keep communication clear with everyone involved.

Couples consistently tell us they felt supported, that the day ran smoothly, and that they could actually enjoy their own celebration instead of managing details in a wedding dress. That is the outcome we work toward every time.

Why Couples and Wedding Professionals Recommend Us

Photographers, venues, and other vendors notice when a wedding has strong coordination. Details stay on schedule, the wedding party knows where to be, and the couple remains relaxed. Our combination of long-term local experience, formal certifications, and day-of leadership has made Weddings by Stephanie a trusted resource for couples planning in Northeast and Central Florida.
